    Troupe off the market....

    Bucs agreed to terms with Ben Troupe on a two-year contract, according to NFL Network's Adam Schefter. A nice fit for the athletic pass-catching tight end. Troupe will have to learn the offense, but he'll get a chance to compete to start with incumbent Alex Smith. While he's worth keeping an eye on, the Bucs tight ends will probably cancel each other out.

    I had a feeling he was going to sign here..

    That sucks I really wanted him to play in a BILLS UNIFORM....

    I bet we sign Anderson now and I think he will come pretty cheap as well....

      ****. Looks like we'll be going into the draft with TE as a priority. Not good.

          Please. Anderson will struggle to make the team, let alone beat out Royal.

            We should draft a TE regardless. The TE market was dead once the Colts tagged Clark.

                I agree...But it would be nice to go into the draft without having to get one, and I don't want a rookie starting there anyway.

                  what about Utecht?
                  Wouldnt mind throwin some money his way i think he has potential more than Troupe, although i wanted him in a bills uniform, time to get at least one more vet in here

                    Sorry, but Anderson is a pile of garbage that does not upgrade that position one bit. Waste of money if they sign him.

                      I felt bad for Anderson listening to his presser. He sounds like he's on his last leg as far as hope for a team signing him. Although I felt bad, he really sucks! I was wishing that we would have took a chance on Troupe as well. He seemed to have more potential. At least he looked like a better pass catching TE.

                      I can't believe that we were too cheap to sign Troupe. Maybe his injury still caused concern with OBD.
                      Where else would you rather be than right here right now?

                        Is ERic Johnson still out there?

                        And please dont tell me Ralphy already blew his load and will get outbid for any FA we're interested in that comes to visit.

                          I'd be happy to get Utecht. I think he has an upside we've not seen since he's been mostly behind Clark, yet performing when called upon.

                          Everyone else out there is just another Royal, including Troupe. No loss here. Maybe a saving grace he signed elsewhere. I'm tired of the massive amount of mediocrity we've been filling up the roster with under the category of TE.

                          I miss Pete.

                              so perhaps the bills know what theyre doing
