Hahahahaha

I guess, with all that money we have, we aren’t doing much.

apparently he re-signed

for 5 YEARS per Pewter Report. He reportedly took less money to stay with the Bucs… i officially hate this weekend…

how bout a steel cage death match between he and Kellen Winslow for the rights to jersey #80. Winner gets number. Regardless K2 and Clayton should switch positions as K2 can;t block and Clayton cant catch

I think they should both wear #80...

…and have to line up next to each other at all times. One’s jersey would say OVER and the other would say HYPED!

Okay sorry. I was just kidding, but you handed me that one.

i'll take it

i hope they paid him 5+ million a season so he continues to think he’s god’s gift to the bucs WR position…

Jagodzinski you would be smart to make him the new Tight End and Winslow the new Wide Receiver…

i’m so sour right now

Well it's not like I bought it in 2007 or something...

if it was an authentic

you could take his name plate and number off, but we know it’s not so you’d have to sit there for hours with a cheese grater

thats true too

can;t wait to see how much this deal was for… why do they covet this guy so much? is blocking truly that great of an asset that you completely overlook his propensity to drop balls and kill drives

neither the

Tampa Tribune or St. Pete Times have reported the Clayton signing, so just maybe, JUST MAYBE this actually hasnt happened.

wishful thinking

this entire offseason has made baby jebus cry like a bitch, but this is just… are these people serious? i mean really? maybe Dominik should go back to playing Madden and GTFO… 5 years? 5 F(*#ING years for a 3rd rate receiver who plays like he forgot to wash the KY off after some personal time in the locker room… I am so disgusted.

This offseason is a giant let down

Maybe we’ll trade for Michael Pittman

by Bucs on Mar 1, 2009 12:07 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

I guess I could too

But just imagine if they added a quality QB and Housh to that.

Dammit man

I personally think (or dream) that Clayton will return to his rookie season form....

Trouble is, I’ve been saying it since his rookie year so I’m not sure what the hell I’ve been thinking. I just hope Jagz will be able to utilize Clayton better than Gruden did. Frankly, I was suprised to see him sign. I want to see the details on that contract though….

5 years is a long time

5 years is 3 to many if you ask me, yes he is a great blocker but he has been known to drop the ball at the wrong time. Maybe a 2 year deal would have been better but if we can land T.J then everyone will forget about the clayton signing. You know kinda like everyone forgot about brooks and dunn when we got K2.. I think we should have a decent shot at T.J, if he signs then it would be the best day in my life but knowing how the bucs do what they do i would not get your hopes up…

$5.2 million per season

with $10.5 million guaranteed. Unbelievable…. I’m officially disgusted. Who does this guy have discriminating photos of?

I think Clayton Will get back right...If you Dont think so just check out these stats and Video

Its start’s with the QB 1st if you have no QB to throw the ball then Clayton can’t get catches.And Claytons Rookie Year (2004) Griese was throwing him the football and Griese had a passer rating of 97.5 20TD’s(2nd most in his career)and 2,632 yrds. and he only started 10 games.Hyz 2nd yr. (2005) everyone fall’s in the Sophmore slump and we had problems at QB (simms & griese inconsistence)Hyz 3rd yr.(2006)guess who was at QB?Bruce Gradkowski common do I even need 2 talk about a unproven 2nd day rookie that yr. he had a passer rasting of 65.9 he had 1,661yrds. 9 TD’s and he started 11 games and played 13 that’s pathetic.Hyz 4th yr.(2007) was ok for QB’s(grise and garcia)Griese had a 1,000 yrds. but got injured garcia took ova and threw for 2,440 yrds.in 13games all started had 13TD’s(pss rat of 94.6)and also Ike hillard had hys 2nd most catching season and 3rd most yrds season with bucs that yr. so CLayton was a 3rd option b-cuzz Galloway we all know was balling 4rm 04-07 (3 of those yrs of 1,000yrds.)and being 3rd on the depth chart in the bucs offense ur not going to get 60 receptions Bryant onli had 80+ this yr.and this past yr hyz 5th yr(2008)we had again QB problems (griese getting hurt and garcia filling in again)Griese started all 5 of the 1st games had 1,073 yrds. 69.4 pss rat and 5TD’s Garcia had 2,712 yrds. 12tD’s and a 90.2 pss rat. That’s Great But this was antonio bryant’s big yr with 83 rec. and Hillard had 47 Michael clayton had 38 We all know that Garcia and he bucs offense wasn’t a offense like the Cardinals(with boldin and Larry) or the colts (with Wayne and Harrison) Clayton was once again a3rd option and also clayton hasn’t been playin with passion he use 2 play with like he did in hyz rookie yr. If the buc’s get a QB that can spread the ball Cutler wud have been good or Cassel and I think Freeman thru the draft can develop (he remind me of Jamarcus Russell and Mcnabb)i think he cud be good.But if we can get a good tall good arm QB that can make all the throws and clayton get hyz Physical mentality bak We will be good on offense(and sign Derrick Ward 4 the run game) Look at this clip of how CLayton was his rook yr. he wudnt let anything stop hym not even a helmet LMFAO!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GptxrP9yy6w
