BUCS RE-SIGN WILL ALLEN
The Bucs have been very active in free agency, acquiring Kellen Winslow, and just missing out on Albert Haynesworth and Jonathan Vilma. They even tried to get involved in the Matt Cassel sweepstakes.
Their loyal fans probably aren't excited about all these near misses, and Tampa's latest transaction probably won't help calm them down: The St. Petersburg Times reports that the have re-signed safety Will Allen to a one-year contract with a maximum value of $2.35 million.
It's not a headline grabber, but Allen will stabilize a safety group that looks likely to lose starter Jermaine Phillips. The Bucs are also reportedly eager to bring back cornerback Philip Buchanon.

Looks like were the Suckaneers again! We lost 5 household name players albeit old players and all we have so far in free agency is a rickety tight end who is also a loudmouth. Seems like we are on our way to be the new KC chiefs. come on bucs make a freakin splash already!
Garcia isn't looking so bad now is he?
Don't be surprised if we're scratching our heads during the draft either.
Luke M. might be okay if he has legitimate weapons but Matt cassle was a steal and would have made great competition in camp.
Alright, what a splash with special teams!!
