Bucs sign Keydrick Vincent

[SorthNarolina]

I'm not sure we have so much depth that we can let starters leave.

Vincent wasn't exactly All Pro, we'll be fine. Peppers, Hoover, and Moose are the only guys that are going to be hard to replace.

True, but he was still our starter last year for 16 games. If we keep changing pieces from last year, our running game is gonna suffer.

We dominated the giants and vikings last year with Wharton at LT, Bernadeau at LG, and Schwartz at RT.

That was changing pieces on a weekly basis. We'll be fine especially if we change 1 piece over the course of 7 months.

And Vincent at RG. I'm not saying we can't live without him, I'm saying it would be nice to have the depth with him here.

Bernadau and Schwartz > Vincent. Plus we have the Duke, we'll be fine.

[KillerKat]

Duke Robinson will be tons better than Vincent.

Duke Robinson will be tons better than Vincent.

Well we all know he can be he just hasn't shown us yet.

[Baschski]

A lot of underestimating Vincent here. Dude was rock solid for us.

Duke Robinson will be tons better than Vincent.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Robinson was in barely good enough shape to get through the first practices of TC.

Schartz or Bernadeau should be able to replace him. Robinson is talented enough but unknown if he can actually put it on the field.

News out of Tampa say Vincent had no guaranteed money in his deal:

"Although there were reports that Vincent's two-year contract is worth a total of $4.5 million, a league source with knowledge of the situation told National Football Post that the deal includes no signing bonus, roster bonus or guaranteed money.

Vincent is due $1 million base salaries in 2010 and 2011. The contract does include incentive clauses based on playing time that could boost his earnings."
