Bucs Running Game: An Early Offseason Look.
Posted 01-16-2008 at 06:50 AM by Coachnorm
I was just reading more speculation in the St. Petersburg times that RB Caddilac Williams may not be able to contribute to the Bucs Running Game next season. This has been coming up on and off all season long due to the severe nature of Caddies torn patellar tendon injury. Of course, we have a long off season of Caddies rehab, which has already started. This rehab may yet reveal more or less optimism as it goes on, only time will tell. But, I would think from what I have heard that Caddy is likely to start off training Camp and maybe the season on the PUP list.
RB Earnest Graham has played admirably filling the Caddy void. Graham performed at a high real football level as well as a high Fantasy level. The Bucs are looking to sign him to a contract extension even though he is still under contract through next year. The urgency and size of the extension may give us a further clue as to caddies status.
RB Michael Pittman is a free agent and is expected to test the FA market. I suspect he may end up with the Bucs again with a contract extension. Pittman will test the FA market just to make sure the Bucs don't low ball him.
When it comes to Caddy and Graham in a keeper situation you will have to keep a sharp eye out for offseason info. You may have one or both, at this time I would rather have Graham.
It should be interesting to watch the Bucs draft. They should go for a RB but will it be a day one or a day two pick? A lot of variables at this point, keep your ear to the ground.
