Tampa trades Gaines Adams to Chicago

Mike, I think you have the most accurate thoughts on the Glaziers. An uncapped year next year means that players will be payed more than ever. Now is the time (if you want to be cheap and not pay a lot of money) to get rid of every player on your team that will cost the most money (All-Pro vets, 1st-2nd round draft picks, etc...). They will likely not address the success of the Bucs until we have another capped year. When that will be, we have no idea, but from what I've been reading we should prepare for at least 3 years of uncapped NFL. That would mean that the Bucs will likely be the worst team in the league for the next 4 years, if this is what the Glaziers are doing.

I think the bigger thing is the revenue sharing. Jerry Jones is one of the big spenders that really supported this, and I think he has done a 180 on it now. I personally never supported it. When I buy licensed Dallas Cowboys gear, I don't want it helping pay Donovan McNabb's salary.

Makes sense then if he was that bad.

Adams was crap in Tampa. Quite literally, every day you wake up and turn on the radio people are begging for him to be benched and traded. We spent a 1st round pick on the guy and going into the Washington game he had only 1 sack, if I remember correctly. He was even worse last year. Personally, I don't want him on my team.

What this means is that Bucs truly are in a rebuilding year (we all knew it, I know, but the Bucs wont and haven't come out to say that). This move is to weed out the "bad eggs" and rack up as many draft picks in 2010 as we can.
