According to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, McCoy has drawn interest from 10 teams with offers coming in up to $11 million per season. The amount of interest has reportedly “overwhelmed” McCoy and he appreciates the decision by the Glazer family to release him when they did.
The giggles?
If offers are approaching $11m per year he’s not coming here. I don’t think what we’d offer would even be in that ballpark
Here comes the agent spin.
He will not even smell 11m in real money. If teams would still value him at that he would have been traded to them on his 13m contract for a 6th or 7th rounder. He will get a 11m contract the same way DT got a 6m contract from the Pats.
Precisely what I was thinking.Here comes the agent spin.

Cowart is fighting against Parry/Butler/SheltonWell at least Cowart pry makes the roster now.
Obviously not. We had just 1 Pro Bowler on defense last year but I think we can have a similar defense we had in 2014 or 2016. Top 10-12 defense and top 5 scoring defense.
Seriously? It's 2019 and people are still acting as if being selected to the Pro-Bowl means something? It's a glorified meaningless "honor".. And it's been meaningless for close to 15+ years..
You know you have to wonder about what the Buc's were thinking in the Suh signing.Suh got 9.25M for one year, so yeah, McCoy actually might
Bucs, Ndamukong Suh agree to one-year, $9.25 million contract
I'm not sure of that. I thought Cowart is more of an undersized speed and quickness DT, which would put him more in competition with Adam Butler than Parry and Shelton.Cowart is fighting against Parry/Butler/Shelton
I don’t even know if I would say equally talented. Well, maybe they have equal talent, but on the field McCoy has been good against the run while Suh hasn’t.You know you have to wonder about what the Buc's were thinking in the Suh signing.
What we have here is the Buc's trading McCoy for Suh and $3MM in cap space. I don't think this is a fair trade. McCoy was a great player, but more than that, someone who is a great LEADER within the team and community. Someone they KNOW what they would get game in and game out. With Suh they get an equally TALENTED player, but one who has NEVER been a leader in any city he's played in. He's a player you will NEVER know what you will get game to game. I don't think that trade was worth the $3MM in cap savings.
That was awesome! Best raw post game locker room video I've ever seen.I don’t even know if I would say equally talented. Well, maybe they have equal talent, but on the field McCoy has been good against the run while Suh hasn’t.
To summarize: would Marcus Cannon be happy to find out they’re facing McCoy the same way he was happy about facing Suh? (From the post-AFC championship game locker room video - I still can’t believe that was published....)
