One Dollar Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Gruden sure is using FA to offset the draft picks lost for him. click for article I think that Dilger is better than anyone the Bucs could have drafted in the 3rd round, and he is an upgrade over Battaglia and Moore. He came to Tampa to play for less Money because he wanted to play for Gruden. Get that. He left Dungy and wanted to play for Gruden. Who woulda thought. The Bucs are definately getting BIG with FA Check out the size of the guys Gruden has got so far: G Kerry Jenkins (Jets) 6-5, 305 QB Rob Johnson (Bills) 6-4, 212 WR Joe Jurevicius (Giants) 6-5, 230 WR Keith Poole (Broncos) 6-0, 193 RB Michael Pittman (Cardinals) 6-0, 218 TE Marco Battaglia (Redskins) TE Ken Dilger (Colts) 6-3, 249 LB Jack Golden (Giants) 6-1, 240 DE Greg Spires (Browns) 6-1, 265 Ok now back to your regularly scheduled Redskin talk $1 (resident Buc fan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inmate running the asylum Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Now that Gruden has two multi-million dollar TE's [Dilger and Battaglia], I think he will go to a two-TE offense ala Woody Hayes and it will be "two yards and a cloud of dust." :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky Ralph Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 This hurts Dallas. They were hoping to land Dilger. Now, they'll be forced to use one of their first three draft choices on a TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 I thought the Colts dumped him not him wanting to play somewhere else. The colts have kept their Offensive coaching staff so I dont see Dungy being the reason for an offensive player to leave. This is where us signing Trotter would be a plus because wit the size and lack of speed fom their receivers the bucs may use slants alot which would lead them into free Tattoos from Trotter and Shade.

One Dollar Posted April 17, 2002 Author Share Posted April 17, 2002 These big boys that Gruden is getting can give out some tattoos also (Dilger is 6-3 and 249lbs) Also, just try and tackle Pittman or Alstott without 'getting some' in return. plus Gruden is FAR from done. look for a speedy FA WR after June or in this years WR stocked draft. And if your talking about our only matchup, it will be in Pre-season and I'm sure Lynch & Brooks are looking to give some tattoos to Anthoney and Green :) (now those smurfs will be hurtin') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
