According to Sirius

Broncos give up Plummer

Bucs give 4th rounder.

And Dan Wilkinson was traded to Denver for a 6th round pick

And didn't Plummer retire to nix the trade and hose Shannahan yesterday? Or did something new happen?

Apparently he didn't really retire or has changed his mind. I'm so confused.

Jesus. Now they are saying they aquired Plummer and may trade him away to someone like the Texans.

The Texans are who should have gotten Plummer in the first place.

Ok. The draft pick the Bucs gave for Plummer was a conditional draft pick in '08 so if Plummer does decide to retire the Bucs still have the rights to him for the next couple of years if he decides to return.

Still doesn't make sense from a business stand point though.

Garcia now offical


Bucs signed QB Jeff Garcia to an undisclosed contract.
Terms haven't been disclosed, but Garcia was looking for roughly $5 million-per-year. We'd guess that Garcia will make more money than Chris Simms in 2007, which should give him the slight edge to be the Bucs' starter. Garcia and Jon Gruden have long been mutual admirers and Garcia has enjoyed most of his success in a West Coast offense, so it's possible he'll be a top-20 fantasy QB. The signing makes it more likely Tampa will target Calvin Johnson or defensive help in the draft.

Will post Plummer link when available.

Getting a 6th round pick for someone that was busting benches is very fine by me. I would've hoped he would've been able to show why he was drafted 1st all those years ago, but it wasn't the case here in Miami. Good luck Big Daddy, at least he was good enough in his situational roles.

I'm use to us giving away draft picks, not getting them, lol.

Bucs acquired quarterback Jake Plummer from the Broncos in exchange for a conditional pick in the 2007 NFL Draft.
The Bucs will sit on Plummer's rights and hope he changes his mind about retirement, then possibly trade him to Houston closer to the draft. Tampa currently has six QBs under contract: Jeff Garcia, Plummer, Luke McCown, Bruce Eugene, Bruce Gradkowski, and Chris Simms, and is in a comfortable place to make a move if he decides to come back. The conditions of the pick are likely based on if and how much Plummer plays for the Bucs this year

Bah...you better not draft any QBs in the 6th....maybe there's some sort of blessing on AFC East team's and 6th round QBs...
