Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports Lito Sheppard likely to be a Buccanneer

[PATRIOTSFANINPA]

No link yet but it been reported this hour that Lito Sheppard just came back from a visit with Tampa Bay and a deal involving draft picks with Philadelphia is likely to occur before draft day.

Goodbye to the last of the really good available Corners

Lets hope now that Ty Law comes back to play and retire here and help that area out with some expert experience.

Ok i'm no expert on this stuff, but is that necessary for the Cover 2?

Do the bucs really need to overpay for an injury-prone corner for their defense?

Of all 32 teams the Bucs had the most cap money to spend and they are certainly doing so.

they are dumb then.

They should have spent the money elsewhere. Unless he's playing for cheap.

Will probably give Philly a 2nd this year,1st next year and one of their 30 QBs on the current roster

I was marginally looking forward to Shepard coming here...If it had happened..I would have thought the FO knew what they were doing... I really thought reports of him almost definite were hyped and not true...more likely Law will be here..although that will not happen for months as Ty will drag it out more and more..looking for larger money..so I think the Pats will draft a few CBs...an dLaw if he makes it will just be gravy...

 

[tombonneau]

Meh ... I was never big on Sheppard. Pats would have to hand him a fat contract, and as everyone can logically deduce, if they wanted to do that they'd have kept AS.

Bring on Law and a Round 1 CB.

 

[Kontradiction]

I'd be happy if Law came back. He's historically made Peyton Manning look like a dunce.

Heck, even in that abomination of a playoff game that KC played against Indy two years ago, Manning still threw bullets straight to Law (I mean there wasn't another Indy player within 20 feet of the ball. . . .).

 

[The 12th Man]

There goes Eugene Wilson's chance.

There goes Eugene Wilson's chance.

Maybe after two more weeks of off season activities they realize why he wasn't re-signed here even after Gay and Samuel were lost...

Why KC lost that game? One word...HERM.

The Colts were stacking 8 men in the box to stop LJ the entire game, which WOULD have opened up Tony Gonzales in the passing game-but Herm nonetheless thought it was a brilliant idea to keep feeding LJ against a stacked front 8 or so.
