    Interesting rumors are speedy gold may be
    signed here and take ryan neece spot. Tampa
    says his knee is fine and are very interested in
    signing the former linebacker from denver.

    Another interesting note. Marquees cooper the
    speedy linebacker we drafted is rumored to be
    converted to strong saftey where lynch was. Since
    he hits hard this may not be a bad move. I
    suppose this is risk all pending on gold's knee.

    If gold is 100 percent like they say and cooper
    is moved to ss we may have a hard hitting speedy
    secondary and possibly replaced a hitter in lynch.

    With a Crappy draft or should i say christmas in april
    i felt like i got clump of coal while others had the
    smiles on there faces, with champagne dizyness
    from celebrations lol.

    I do like this move tho.

    If Gold is truly injury free, this would be a decent pickup. As for Cooper, does speedy include decent cover skills? If so, this would work out well. He is probably on the light side for a LB, so SS seems like a good fit if he can cover. Then they shouldn't be able to miss a beat without Lynch (at least scheme-wise anyway).

    I guess cooper played strong saftey before
    being converted from what ive heard. He still
    must beat out jermaine phillips who the coaches
    think would be the man to beat. Yep i read
    some reports and it is now why tampa chose
    to pass up on dj williams. However nothing
    is certain and im still not sure why we took
    ohio st's saftey if this is a lock. will allen
    is supposivley high on the list as well.

    If gold is the player he was in denver before
    he was hurt he will fit in well with our speedy
    linebackers.
