The Buccaneers have acquired 29-year old WR Reggie Brown from the Eagles for a 6th round pick in 2011.  Brown played in 14 games for the Eagles last season in which he caught 9 passes for 155 yards (17.2 avg).  He has now played in 72 games in his NFL career in which he has caught 177 passes for 2,574 yards (14.5 avg) with 17 TD grabs.  Brown has also carried the ball 11 times for 68 yards (6.2 ypc) with 1 TD run in his NFL career.  This was a good move for the Buccaneers who are very desperate for WR help and Brown is a pretty decent receiver who was in Andy Reid’s Dog House last season.

The Buccaneers have released 29-year old CB Torrie Cox.  Cox played in 11 games for the Bucs last season and he made 21 tackles.  He played in 56 games in his career with the Bucs in which he made 79 tackles, defensed 5 passes, forced 1 fumble and he had 1 interception that he returned 55 yards for a TD.  Cox also returned 77 kickoffs for 1,758 yards (22.8 avg) for the Bucs.  The Buccaneers shouldn’t miss Cox at all.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have lost 28-year old DE Jimmy Wilkerson for the season due to a torn ACL.  Wilkerson played in 15 games for the Bucs this season and he made 46 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, he forced 2 fumbles, defensed 2 passes and he had 6 sacks which was second on the team.  The Buccaneers will miss Wilkerson against the Falcons this weekend as he is one of the best pass rushers on the team.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed RB Earnest Graham on I.R. ending his season due to a torn ligament in his right big toe.  Graham played in 13 games for the Bucs this season and he carried the ball 14 times for 66 yards (4.7 ypc) and he also caught 14 passes for 109 yards (7.8 avg).  The Buccaneers simply don’t use Graham right and he would be smart to leave in free agency.

The Buccaneers have claimed 27-year old WR Mark Bradley off waivers from the Chiefs.  Bradley has played in 13 games this season for the Chiefs and he caught 24 passes for 320 yards (13.3 avg) with 2 TD grabs and he also carried the ball 2 times for 20 yards (10.0 ypc).  Bradley also returned 7 kickoffs for 123 yards (17.6 avg) and he has completed a pass for 26 yards this season.  Bradley has now played in 57 games in his NFL career and he has caught 92 passes for 1,283 yards (13.9 avg) with 9 TD grabs.  He has also returned 11 kickoffs for 193 yards (17.6 avg) in his career.  Bradley will likely replace Stroughter on kickoff returns and in the offense.
