Do not want to see Revis in TB. That would be a waste of talent. I want him to go somewhere he has a shot at winning.

The Bucs offense was #1 in the league for almost half the season last year and the rush defense was #1 in the league the entire year. This was in their first year with a completely new coaching staff and All-Pro guards Carl Nicks and Davin Joseph both out for basically the whole season. Had the Bucs had just a DECENT pass defense they would have been a playoff team this past season. Josh Freeman also will be in a contract year this upcoming season. If the Bucs come out of this offseason with Revis, Grimes and a corner in the first 3 rounds then I don't think you'll be feeling too bad for Revis next year.

Oh and Eric Wright will be released shortly...he won't win any type of grievance against the Bucs after his Adderrall suspension and being injured half the year.

Report: Vikings expected to battle Dolphins for Mike Wallace

Report: Vikings expected to battle Dolphins for Mike Wallace
Posted by Josh Alper on March 6, 2013, 2:35 PM EST

The Dolphins have been expected to be heavy bidders for wide receiver Mike Wallace in free agency for some time and it looks like they’ll have some company from up north.

Jeff Darlington of NFL.com reports that the Vikings are expected to join the Dolphins in the quest to add Wallace to their offense. That’s not surprising news, given the state of the Vikings’ receiving corps with Percy Harvin and the lingering possibility that they won’t wind up having Harvin in the fold when the 2013 season gets underway.

With the Dolphins missing out on several big targets over the last few years, it would be a cruel twist for them to lose out to one of their former general managers. Vikings General Manager Rick Spielman once ran the show in Miami and now he could keep the Dolphins from landing the apple of their eye.

The Vikings might not be the only bidder. Peter King said the Titans could be in the mix for Wallace on Tuesday’s Pro Football Talk on NBC Sports Network and it wouldn’t make Dolphins fans feel any better if Ruston Webster is the one who winds up landing the big fish. They’ve been the bridesmaid for players (Vincent Jackson, Peyton Manning) and coaches (Jim Harbaugh, Jeff Fisher) often enough that there need be no special salt in the wound for it to sting all over again.

Darlington reports that the team thinks the new three-day negotiating window this year will work to their advantage since it will give them a better sense of the market than they had when the Buccaneers outbid them for Jackson last year. That could wind up working the other way just as easily, though, and we it’s hard to imagine why that would make the Dolphins likelier to get him than being able to sign a player as soon as possible. In other words, we’ll still be waiting to see if the wind blows the Dolphins’ way this time around.

Game on, *******!

I don't see us as true serious bidders for Wallace. Can't see us giving 60-70 mil to Wallace a year after breaking off Marshall.

I think Wallace would fit us ok, but not at that cost.

Easy now that's not Randy Moss you're battling for

 

[651akathepaul]

Yeah...I didn't really care about going after him until now.

I would only love it if they kept Harvin.

 

[shox23]

If it comes down to which qb it's an easy choice

Yea he will command more than Bowe... I don't think that will happen in Miami anymore.

Should be interesting for the Phins off season.

Along the same note, I don't mind if the Dolphins don't pick him up. He has a LOT of drops and is a big diva for a team who legit threw off and gave away divas. So we will see.

[flyerthandelta]

Do the chiefs really need that no1 pick...trade able for some star player hmmmm

 

[greenbean]

Revis to ATL needs to just happen already

 

[651akathepaul]

Is it?

Tannehill> Ponder

 

[651akathepaul]

Debatable.

 

[mmg]

Aren't Tannehill and Ponder pretty much the same type?

Both can boogie but lack the big arm / down the field capability ?

Ponder doesn't possess the big arm that tannehill does

 

[fraij da 5 11]

Tanny can't boogie like Ponder.

lolz no.

 

[airblaster503]

Detroit Lions made a HUGE splash today.

Re-signed DeAndre Levy, the worst starting LB in the league, to a 3 year deal :x :x










I can't take it anymore |I

 

[yvespo3]

Chiefs released Eric Winston, Looks like Fisher or Joeckel bout to be the first pick. Dumervil will also get released if he doesn't take a pay cut.

 

[mmg]

Gonna be interesting to see Von alone without another rusher on the otherside.

 

[buc em]

So do you guys think Revis will be traded by this weekend? I think he almost has to be because with as much money as he's gonna be making the team that trades for him is going to need to know he's gonna be on their roster next year before they can spend another penny.

 

[lpheat22]

Hard to argue against dumervil having to take that pay cut

 

[DeadsetAce]

my dude buc em is JUICED about revis

i would be too...my secondary :x

Wouldn't be surprised if they get freeney
