No rumors but i would like to see Vince Young traded to the Texans, instant fan favorite (he isnt in Memphis) and Coach Fisher gets rid of a headache.Not sure what his value would be but what in hell do the Texans have to lose.

Rumor has it that the Buccaneers are interested in Torry Holt and Roy Williams.

What's the point in trading for a WR when they don't have a QB to throw them the ball? Just sayin..

adschofield · 10-08-2008, 04:56 PM

If we can't trade LJ, just cut him...I'm so sick of his ****

Garcia made the pro-bowl last year. He is a very competent QB in Gruden's system. He just got benched because Gruden is very arrogent. Adding Torry Holt or Roy Williams would give the Bucs a legit #1. Something that Antonio Bryant is not

Roy, Joey, and Antonio lining up three wide sounds about right...hell throw in Dexter to stretch the field. (If there was anymore left to stretch) :)

I meant a real QB, sorry.

How does having Garcia on the bench mean you have a QB to to thrown Roy the ball? I think you should go after a WR saying you have a pro bowler on the bench who will not start this year again likely is a terrible answer.

It actually looks like Garcia is going to start this week. So....

Because Griese is injured. By the time any trade for a WR is made Griese will be back.

Based on how each played last week, and how Griese threw 6 INTs the two weeks before. It is very likely that Garcia will stay as the starter, even when Griese gets healthy.

Time will tell I suppose. I picked up Garcia two weeks ago in my fantasy league hoping this would happen.

Trade deadline approaching for Bucs

Posted By Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune) at Oct 07, 2008 at 03:00 PM

With only a week to go before the NFC trade deadline, the Bucs face a dilemma.

Given the uncertainty surrounding veteran WR Joey Galloway, Tampa Bay must decide whether to pursue another downfield threat for a passing game that ranks among the league’s least efficient.

The Bucs average only 5.45 yards per pass attempt and have rarely thrown deep during a 3-2 start that leaves them one game behind first-place Carolina in the NFC South. Galloway, who turns 37 in November, missed training camp with a groin strain and has been sidelined the past three weeks due to a foot injury that leaves Coach Jon Gruden anxious for his return.

If the Bucs decide to add another target through a trade, they could look toward some of the league’s bottom feeders for help.

Roy Williams of Detroit or Torry Holt of the Rams may be available for the right price and the Chiefs may listen to offers for TE Tony Gonzalez, a future Hall of Famer who still has the speed to go deep at age 32.

Through five weeks, the Bucs are averaging a league-leading 41 pass attempts per game, but the lack of production has Gruden frustrated. Tampa Bay averages only 9.2 yards per completion, tied with the Bengals and Chiefs for last in the NFL, and the Bucs have only five completions of 20 or more yards.

In contrast, the Panthers have completed 35 fewer passes but trail the Bucs by only 22 fewer receiving yards.

The Bucs are well under the salary cap and GM Bruce Allen has repeatedly suggested the club is positioned to make a run at a significant player if warranted.

All NFL trades must be completed by 4 p.m. next Tuesday.

Should the Bucs stand pat, or would they be wise to trade for a proven WR? How much would you be willing to give up for a Torry Holt or a Tony Gonzalez?

But you know how Gruden is...

Hopefully Oakland can trade for Ocho Cinco, Roy Williams or TJ WhosYourMomma.

Or

Al Davis dies and we get Matt Millen as our GM and draft a WR for 3 years straight so Russell can have some decent weapons

Hines · 10-08-2008, 08:38 PM

LJ to the Steelers is wishful thinking. I would be so estactic if it happens, but I think there is a .1% chance we get him.

If we did, I wonder how teams would gameplan to stop Parker, LJ, Mendenhall(when he returns), and MM.

If we did get LJ, I could see us trading Parker.

Having a team being run by Al Davis or Matt Millen is like death by electrocution or shark attack... what is the difference... either way you're ****ed

Breaker · 10-08-2008, 09:26 PM

I hope someone steps up and take Rosencopter from the Texans. Rick Smith needs to get back on the phone with the Vikings.

Yung Flippa · 10-08-2008, 09:32 PM

Baltimore needs a deep threat. Derrick Mason is a very solid possession receiver, but Mark Clayton is really inconsistent. I would love to somehow get Roy Williams. or Ocho Cinco =O, like that'll ever happen.

Bengals1690 · 10-08-2008, 09:33 PM

i would really love to get a draft pick or linebacker/center for TJ
