Does anyone THINK they should so DRAFT a RB.... i watched the game ( kinda the yanks were in like 14th) I watched pittman time after time run up into a D player and get slammed for three yards it was quite pitiful The only thing Micheal Pittman ever broke was his wifes back with a Caddy
Pittman's a versatile back, but he's not a punishing runner like Jerome Bettis was. He definitely needs more O-Line help. He reminds me of Richie Anderson with he style of play...decent runner, great receiver.
Bears is right we need to draft offensive lineman and yes tampa does need a rb. Im not sure where we will be in the cap if we can make a move for james or henry in the offseason. However we have alot of picks and this team needs a massive overhaul for offensive players. Clayton,simms and pittman are our only young players on offense. I beleive depending on where we end up in the draft if we get the top 3 pick in the first we would be all over mike williams to add with clayton and simms. Then we can eithier sign a rb or draft a rb in rd 2 or 3 where some of the best rbs come out.
This next draft should be a good one for the Bucs to pick up some young depth. Clayton looks like someone to build around. Simms will stick around for awhile. Pittman is OK if the rest of the team is. I like the Richie Anderson comparison. I like your projection Bucs as far as WR and RB, depending on the cap situation. I think next year will be a lot like this year in terms of RBs. Not the huge home runs, but plenty of 2-4 round talent. If no younger OL free agents are available, you have to think about getting a good FA RB if cap permits, though.
