As it turns out, Chris Hovan isn’t the only defensive tackle that the Bucs are shopping. Per Stephen Holder of the St. Petersburg Times (via JoeBucsFan.com), defensive tackle Ryan Sims is available via trade as well.

Both players started each game in 2009 for the Buccaneers, and both were one-time first-round draft picks.

Signed through 2012, Sims is due to earn a base salary of $1.375 million this year.

Anyone want to bite on that? (Sarcasm Font)

Jimmy Wilkerson Signs With Bucs

The Pewter Report is reporting that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed DE Jimmy Wilkerson.

PewterReport.com is reporting that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed defensive end Jimmy Wilkerson to a 2-year deal, according to his agent, Joby Branion.

The contract details for Wilkerson’s new deal have not been released. I wish Jimmy all the luck in the world and think he did a great job for the Chiefs for his role. He was a great role player that understood his job. I was actually hoping that the Chiefs would resign Wilkerson, but maybe this will be the best for both teams. The Buccaneers now have two of our former defensive lineman–Simms and Wilkerson. Good luck with that, Tampa!

Stray Arrows: Cowboys Sign Another Former Chief

Blog Z — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 03:01:58 +0000

The Dallas Cowboys signed every Chiefs fans second favorite former Chief — defensive tackle Junior Siavii (I know everyones favorite is Ryan Sims). The Cowboys have put him on their reserve/future list. I am shocked that someone would take a chance on a player who did more hitting in bars than on the field, but again this is the team that signed Tank Johnson. Maybe Junior can be Tank’s new going-out buddy. Obviously, this doesn’t guarantee Siavii anything, but maybe he will at least have the funds to once again party like an NFL player. Here is what the Cowboys official website is saying:

The Cowboys continue to stock their roster with street free agents, signing defensive tackle Junior Siavii to their reserve/future list on Wednesday.

I am shocked that any journalist would use the word “stock” when they talk about Siavii, unless he was talking about his weight (last registered at 330 pounds). Especially when Junior hasn’t played a down in two years. Maybe he needed the rest for everything he ~~did~~ didn’t do for the Chiefs?

Does anyone remember what 810 nicknamed Siavii? Was it spit mask or spit net? I remember it was something that the police used when he got arrested because he was spitting on the police.
