Peterson prefers Farmer and Licht

One name I've heard that is not expected to be a finalist in Miami: Pittsburgh's Omar Khan. Makes sense since he and Aponte are cap people.

The **** is going to hit the fan when Xanders and/or Farmer remove their names from consideration.

they are probably calling Licht right now about jobs with the Bucs

Next Ozzie Newsome? Big expectations.

Was about to type that I bet Licht is going to Tampa, especially after Vital withdrew, and this one I do believe.

Yep, that's what i said yesterday.

The question is why does Peterson leak his interest in Licht knowing he was the one candidate interviewed by both GM openings.

The bucs seeing this leak up their timetable and hired him.

Was it simply a way of eliminating a rival to his choice Farmer

Sounds like it'll be a Gaine promo... then if things struggle they blow it up in 15.

That's a lot of wasted money on contracts.

I'm a positive type of person, but I'm starting to get the feeling Ross is going to blow this.

The #Bucs deal for new GM Jason Licht is a four-year deal with a 5th year team option, per source.

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter

New Buccaneers GM Jason Licht is signing a four-year deal with a team option that puts his tenure right in line with Lovie Smith's.

What will be funny is I will be Ray Farmer's biggest defender if he is picked and people rip the selection.

They would be stupid for ripping Farmer. In all honest how many posters on here really know what any of this men accomplished at their last jobs?

 

[hoops]

:sidelol: we just got bird dogged by the ****ing Bucs. Unreal.

yeah but it doesnt seem like to me a hard choice if it's true he's getting all that say with them...

 

[gnome011]

FARMER! Get the guy already man.

 

[Travis34]

At this point I just want someone with an eye for talent.

Yup that's all I want. Don't care who it is... Just draft well and see talent

 

[Hayden Fox]

Here is the other thing...they could promote Brian Gaine. It is still the best fit. All of this talk about Senior Bowl and talking to the coaches etc. is out the window. He knows what Joe wants. He fits with Aponte. Gaine is respected in the league.

Maybe he should be promoted and see how it goes next year. IF, it fails, clean house and start over for real.

I think Brian Gaine should still be considered for the gig.
