Davin's Deal is Done
It's official:
Davin Joseph is ready to begin his Bucs career as the team's first-round pick just inked a five-year, $10-million deal, according to his agent, Ben Dogra.
That means Joseph will be ready to go tomorrow when the Bucs hit the field for their first practice. Players were to report to Celebration today by 4 p.m., but Joseph was a no-show. With the business now out of the way, expect Joseph to arrive in time for tonight's series of meetings in preparation for the big day tomorrow.

The competition for o-line has started. The Bucs need to make a smooth transition to a power run blocking offensive line. This means over-hauling the right side of the line, ASAP. By replacing Mahan and Walker the Bucs' run attack will be far more lethal.
