Short arms? What he can't do push ups? He can't reach his wanker? WTF does it mean to have short arms???

My feeling is, that if we don't come out of the draft with one of the top DT's, I would entertain trading a 5th and Hassan Ridgeway for him.

McCoy is the ideal UT for Eberflus system, I just don't know how much he has left in the tank?

McCoy's release would save the Bucs $13 million against the cap this year. If anything wait to see if Bucs release him. I don't see Ballard sending a pick and a player for the 31 year old McCoy who is under contract through 2021;
2019: $13 million
2020: $10 million (+ $2.5 million / Roster Bonus)
2021: $10,432,253 (+ $2.5 million / Roster Bonus)

From what I understand, he’s not as good as he was but he’s still got juice left and he’s more Justin Houston than Trent Cole (yes, I’m aware he’s not an edge).

That said, I’d rather just go with Suh, but Ballard might place an emphasis on “fits the culture” and McCoy’s experience in the Tampa 2.

For a low pick maybe. But if Ballard is at all interested I expect he’d wait for McCoy to be released.

Yep. This is the only way it makes sense to kick the tires

Based on that contract, I agree. Wait and see if he's released.

Reportedly Tampa Bay has now informed McCoy that they will release him.

Let's see if Ballard goes after him. Supposedly the Browns were also interested.

Field Yates says our d-line coach was an assistant for Bucs in 2014

Ah yes...the thread with the great arm-length debate of 2019. Good times.

And yeah, I hope they find a way to get McCoy to Indy. He would be a nice piece on that line, and with all of the youth there, probably the proverbial 'veteran presence'.
