Rapoport: Bucs Releasing DE Mike Johnson

[noletime95]

Johnson is nothing more than a decent rotational guy. If he's ok with a commensurate salary, fine. Otherwise, no thanks. He's a JAG

And they've been pretty damn solid the past few years. Weird.

It's not weird at all. If you can do your homework in the draft, you can do it in FA and you can do it with re-signing your own players. It is just fashionable to write off FA because people think they are smarter than everyone else. The fact is you need all 3 methods to build a playoff team.

And overpaying in FA isn't one of them. No one has written off FA (including the Cowboys FA). Just because they haven't gone full ****** in the first 24 hours of FA doesn't mean they have no intentions on jumping in. But by all means soil yourself worrying about it.

They have to be signing Trent Cole.

He visited Tampa last week.

EDIT: Nevermind. Just saw Colts signed Cole.

That's pretty bad, IMO.

Adding one quality guy should make it look pretty good. It's the depth guys after Gardner I have doubts about. Then another young developmental type in the draft maybe.

Cole signed with the Colts.

 

[therock1982]

The only nterest we should have in him goes as follows
whos signing him?
Does that mean 1 of the other pass rushers we were looking at wont sign there n therefore could come here?
Does it mean a possible pass rusher in the draft falls to us?

Another soil yourself reference. You are a real wordsmith.

And so far you've been a real genius.

Real genius= whiner

Wow, you must be on the Debate Team

 

[skinsscalper]

And you must be a poet.......

 

[MichaelWinicki]

This is exactly why I like the approach Dallas is taking and not jumping in and over paying for players that don't live up to their contracts..

Exactly right.

Some folks simply don't get that.

 

[DFWJC]

Mincey and Lawrence would likely be the starters. Gardner, Boatright, Crawford and Edwards are also on the depth chart.

We'll rotate Bud Dupree into the mix too

 

[BAT]

He will be going straight back to Cincinnati per rumors.

May give Minny a look too. Had his best years under Zimmer.
