…I seriously doubt Freeman becomes the Bucs starter in 4 years. If he hasn’t been given the full chance by then, the odds of him being a Buc by then is slim to none. Drafting a first round QB to sit him for a year is understandable. Even maybe 2 if he really is a project. But there’s no way we pay him first round money to sit for 4.

You’re right on with Cadillac. Once those knees get repaired, they dont stand of chance of having the same type of injury again. Its a freak injury to begin with, but there isnt a chance he re-injures it. He’s gonna come back, just hope he’s the same old (non-injured Caddy)

If Freeman doesnt start this year, and McCown lights it up, look for that to extend McCown for one more year, until the end of his deal. Freeman will be our starter by his 3rd year. You can’t pay that kind of money and have a first rounder sitting on the bench. See Brees, Anderson/Quinn etc.

Ever since I saw him play in his first preseason game for the Bucs I was impressed because he would tuck and run when the situation would need for him to and he was quick with his release. I remember thinking then that he should be our future starter and every season I had looked for him to. When He got his chance to start in those games in 2007 I thought he had a great showing and did things that even some of the great QBs have not like throwing completions 15 out of 15 in that game against the Saints before the incomplete pass. Just think if he were to start this season with the weapons that the Bucs have now. The season could possibly be salvaged.

With Leftwich, his throw is so slow that the Bucs would have to rely that much more on the run and the talented receivers they have now would not get utilized properly. The NFC south have some great defenses and they would jump at every opportunity to see Leftwich positioned to throw.

Freeman is to unexperienced.

opens the season as the starter. Despite his ability to get the ball in players hands look at his win-loss record. I have huge doubts about the position. As should everybody as we just don’t know what we have.

As far as Caddy goes i wouldn’t say he is genetically susceptible to those injures, they just happened to be freak accidents.

I’m hoping that Stroughter can lessen the demands on Clifton to be our savior only returner. Oh and that DJax kid may contribute as well, i kid!

I’m excited to see this running game this year.
In the few RB snaps Clifton got last year he was explosive…I hope he holds on to the ball better this year though.

Really, Not to put down Graham but I would like to see Cadillac return to his explosive self and see him and Ward rip up the defense. Graham could be moved to Full back to replace Storer and rotate with Askew. That probably would never happen but it looks good on paper.

he could absolutely be an NFL starter. he’ll never be the type to tote the rock 20+ times a game, but he could certainly fill the same role Dunn did when he and Alstott went rough shot on the opposition…
