Bucs' top pick Johnthan Banks signs rookie contract
tampabay.com — Second-round draft pick Johnthan Banks is officially onboard, with the Bucs announcing he has signed a four-year contract today. Banks, a cornerback, was the Bucs' top pick this year, with the team's first-round choice shipped to the Jets in the Darrelle Revis trade.
This leaves only Mike Glennon, the third rounder, unsigned. Shouldn't be long, I would think
Bucs report that second-round draft pick Johnthan Banks has signed his contract. And, yes, I spelled his name right believe it or not.
One reason #Bucs rookie Akeem Spence has shot to start is the shorter learning curve at nose tackle: tampabay.com/blogs/bucs/qui… via @TB_Times
Quick transition key to Akeem Spence winning Bucs NT job
tampabay.com — No one would be surprised to see fourth-round pick Akeem Spence win the starting job at nose tackle. But that doesn't mean he won't face some challenges in achieving that goal. One of the adjustments Spence is making is learning to play the "tilted nose" that the Bucs employ, a tactic that requires the nose tackle to line up at an exaggerated angle.
@gleejr9472 And they made that point abundantly clear yesterday.
MT @Stokaveli: @HolderStephen Think they'll ever host one in Carolina or is it too small?>> $80M plus in stadium upgrades coming. Won't hurt
Next Super Bowl opening is 2018. Tampa should be in the mix, but Indy also expected to make a push. Likely others, too.
Can Tampa Bay expect to host a Super Bowl in the near future? tampabay.com/blogs/bucs/whe… via @TB_Times
When will Tampa Bay's next turn to host Super Bowl come?
tampabay.com — A pair of Super Bowls were awarded to San Francisco and Houston on Tuesday when NFL owners voted overwhelmingly to stage the game in those cities in 2016 and 2017, respectively. But Tampa Bay knows a little about holding Super Bowls, too. So, when can we reasonably expect the game to return?
On paper, that looks like a talented DL in my view. But Super Bowls are not won on paper. Let's see what happens.
On related note, #Bucs hoping this is first yr Clayborn, Bowers, McCoy play full season together. Hard to evaluate past based on injuries
