Dont forget about Mark Jones who they use as a KR/PR guy. Assuming he makes the team you have 5 slots for WR's. My picks?

 

Galloway

Clayton

Stovall

Ike

Boston

Shepard

Live outside Tampa and the talk sports radio stations are letting Gruden have it-saying he is soft and letting a turd get in the punch bowl--can't say as I blame them-Boston is truly a disease to a clubhouse--How many teams has he been on in the last five years?

Well thats typical for most Tampa talk radio stations...As for Boston, they signed him to a one year contract where they can cut him in training camp with no cap ramafacations.

I heard that Boston is such a vitamin and workout freak that he sends a stool sample to a lab to have it checked to see if his body is getting and retaining the right nutrients. :D

Radio stations and fans both. This city has to have the most fair weathered fans of any football city.

I heard they were considering playing him at TE, which I think is a more natural position for him these days.  He is too slow and stiff to play against DBs.

They already have a promising TE in Alex Smith. I honestly dont see Boston making the team. Maybe its just to light a fire under some of the WRs a$$.

Can't hurt to have two athletic TEs. I just don't understand it as a WR signing.

Alex Smith will be a beast this season under Grudens Offense. He was second in the league among rookie receptions last season. I think Boston might be able to beat out some of the second year WR's they have for the last spot at WR. Again though, if he doesnt pan out then they drop him with no cap hit.

I was talking to a buddy of mine earlier and he said the same thing about him being a non cap hit if they drop him. However, when I asked what he thought about the signing, he responded (and he is a die hard fan), " theyre so f---ing stupid". Then he started spouting off about the Bills and how bad they suck....typical conversation with him though. :D

Maybe the Bucs want Boston to teach the young WR's how to bulk up?? :D

heres an interesting tidbit from a chat session today with denny greens son jeremy

 

rj (miami): Did the Bucs sign David Boston only to push Michael Clayton? The WR position is getting a little crowded. Galloway, Clayton, Hilliard, Boston, and rookie Stovall. I don't think they can keep both Hilliard and Boston.

 

Jeremy Green: (4:05 PM ET ) If Boston comes in and regains his old form, they could eventually try to move Clayton. I talked with a scout on their staff that has told me the coaching staff is tiring of his partying, being late for meetings, not paying attention in meetings and basic aloof attitude.
