I thought they just cleared him to play.

I wish it was a bigger loss than it is.

[charsibb]

who he?

[Triple B]

One of the Bucs big FA signings back in 2012, http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7684603/tampa-bay-buccaneers-add-carl-nicks-eric-wright-signing-vincent-jackson

Also one of the ones with the MRSA virus on the team .... http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000264694/article/tampa-bay-bucs-carl-nicks-has-surgery-to-get-rid-of-mrsa

[charsibb]

Wow, never heard of removing a virus infection by surgery before. Hope they got it all.

Seen so many cases while working in the hospital. It's a nasty bug. In the hospital it's common for vent patients to get it. Oral care is the key to stop it in that setting. I just hope he can get rid of it and not lose his foot. They are cutting the infected tissue out.

But now, with everyone gone, how good is that O line. IMO it's the Bucs weakest link.

Looks like they upgraded at tackle and should be fine at center.  But the guard spots look scary bad at the moment.  I suspect they pick up a veteran along the way.  Hope they have a guy or two they think will surprise.

So if the O Line is ok, what is the next problem area? CB or DE?

[DELdaBull]

CB is solid as long as those guys stay healthy. DE is a question mark outside of the free agent pick up.

[GaUSFBull]

I think Clayborn will be fine with a strong DE opposite him.  Bowers is a huge disappointment.  Thought we were getting a good value, at least for a few years, with him in the draft but didn't turn out that way.
