The thing is, do you pay because he's going to Canton, or based on what you think he'll be for the next 4 years?

70 catches for 900 and 7 TDs isn't worth what he's looking for.

He's taken paycuts throughout his career, more notably when Brady came to Tampa, to keep certain guys on the team. He's a franchise leader. Just pay him and Lavonte David so they can retire Bucs instead of overpaying a bum like Devin White.

That's not how it goes and you know that, least of all in the NFL.

I think Evans has another 2-3 years left of high level production. The problem with not signing him is, what else are you going to do on offense?

Mike is literally the entire offense with a splash of Rachaad White. They can’t afford to let him walk away now… their hands are tied, because this team has way too many holes to draft a receiver that isn’t Harrison Jr. early.

Bucs will have some cap space next year, and I’m sure at this current juncture they already know who they are cutting ties with and who’s getting paid. Devin White & Shaq Barrett are done here, Jensen will be released & retire, CD3 will be on his last year & they can move him…

Wirfs, Winfield, & Evans will get the bag. Wirfs could possibly get franchise tagged… & they might beg Lavonte to come back for 1 final 1 year deal and have SirVocea Dennis under his wing until they’re able to draft his replacement the following season in 2025.

Do you think that’s what he’s going to produce? My point is that even if he declined by a noticeable margin, he’d be at some amazing numbers. Does he look like he’s still got it physically?

We don't know what he's going to produce, but he's entering the stage where WRs slow down.

Upon this hypothetical decline, 70/900/7 are amazing numbers? And worth north of 25M/year?

This offense is deadass "Go make a play, Mike and Rachaad"

I'm good on Canales. I said I wasn't gonna blame him because Todd is handcuffing him. But damn, his play calling is tough to watch.

He can't scheme Godwin open. His sequencing makes very little sense. The 2nd and long runs up the gut :unimpressed:

We won this game because it was the Panthers

This coaching staff is gonna survive another season because of the division they play in

Ridiculous
Although i want Bowles out of that head coaching role, I can live with that. Canales isn’t terrible he can scheme up some stuff

Just please for the love of God upgrade the QB :wow:

I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree

He's not good. At all. The good play are so few and far in between.

Too often, it's high-level execution getting it done. We all know baker sucks, but he's not getting from dave

I like what I’ve seen him do as far as getting our offensive linemen in the open field and setting up our RBs to make moves in open space off screens & dump offs

We got a lot of smaller o-linemen (mostly in the interior) that aren’t particularly powerful but are very athletic and can get out there and move

I think they have incrementally improved as the season progresses
