Seriously, is this REALLY news? Jones is an average back going to an average team......if even that.

A stable of RBs is the way to succeed as the Pats & Giants are great examples.

Yea if the stable is good. Otherwise, you have a dope take up salary cap and a roster space. Kevin Jones fits that profile perfectly.

They have Earnest Graham, Michael Bennett and Warrick Dunn

Is Gruden into collecting RB's now?????

BINGO!!! Everybody hold your cards!!

July 1, 2008  10:34 AM ET

If they get this guy, Tampa is heading to the Super Bowl!

July 1, 2008  10:34 AM ET

Just kidding.

July 1, 2008  10:59 AM ET

WOW...the press is cranking out those red hot stories....NOT

July 1, 2008  11:36 AM ET

Just another pawn in Gruden's mad scheme of things. Probably only wants him to trade later or try to trade later. Graham will get the carries and if Cadillac is ready and it doesn't risk his future he will get limited carries.

Wow, Kevin Jones has at least two articles about him in the T&R section. Is it his birthday? I like it better when Pacman... oops, Adam or Mr. Jones is screwing up and we get to make fun of him!!!

they better have a high insurance on this broken old ford

I guess last years coolection of QB's did not work so they are trying a different position.

July 1, 2008  02:08 PM ET

Great job Tampa, stockpile RB's like you do QB

"Don't LEAN too much you might blow out your ACL" !!!

guess when you can't evaluate talent you try the theory of eventually you'll get one good one out of the bunch. They are still waitiing for that one at QB and HB.

Do better than this, the Bucs can. Too much money will he command for his worth.
