He will not be coming here,which to me is a big mistake on his part,but he is much older,and has not performed up to his money. Bucs let him go for a reason. We have a ton of beasts just waiting to get on the field and I seriously believe we have more than enough on defense most of you have never seen play,but believe me they are going to be a very good D.Now someone post something on here that is new and says something.I want to hear from Harley Dog ,he makes me laugh and always has something interesting to say.Now lets go,WHO-DEY ALL DAY.ITS A NEW DEY!!!!!!! :andy:

If people think McCoy was let go by Tampa Bay because he was bad then they must have more faith in that franchise than I do. Sometimes teams let free agents go when they shouldn't, not every free agent is on the market because he's all used up.
The Bucs were in such a dire cap situation that they needed that $3 million to sign their draft picks.

"The Bucs currently possess barely $1MM and needed to make a move in order to finish up signing draft picks."
Just saying (mostly to fortyyearfan) that this wasn't about production. McCoy did not fall off. He was one of the highest rated interior linemen according to PFF. 6 sacks and 21 QB hits is right on par with his typical production.
The Bucs switching to a 3-4 also played into it. Suh has already played in a 3-4.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
