Buccaneers sign RB LeSean McCoy (One year deal)

They have a young RB group don't they? Probably good to bring in a Vet to set the standard, teach them film study, all that good stuff. I know hes old but I'm sure he can still have a couple nice games for them and be reliable in certain situations even if he isn't get many carries/receptions

Reliable isn't McCoy's thing.  Unless you mean the heart attack you will get every time he's waving the ball around like fumbles isn't a thing.

I like that the B/R alert I got was talking about the Bucs offense being "loaded" in conjunction with this signing. As if the addition of a likely past his prime Shady McCoy was truly the asset that put this offense over the top

Excellent. After adding Brady and McCoy (who is coming off a SB championship), should they make moves for Jimmy Graham and Demaryius Thomas?

I'd just go TO give Brady someone to talk to about 80s things.

Isn't Larry Legend older than TO? 

The issue would be getting the Cardinals to part with him. 2 first-round picks, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Tristan Wirfs, and Shaq Barrett should do the trick.

You're confusing the Buccs with Bill O'Brien.

Shady doesn't have anything left...except he is a decent receiver, pass protector, and has been in the league for a while. I still think that Ronald Jones is the #1 RB, and I think that this eats into Vaughn's first years contributions. Asking Vaughn to just jump in and protect Tom Brady without much of an offseason seemed like a stretch to begin with...and now he's on COVID protocol.

He does love to do that, but 25 fumbles in 11 years is pretty average for RBs who have got plenty of touches

Adrian Peterson: 14 Years with 48 Fumbles

Frank Gore: 15 Years with 46 Fumbles

Marshawn Lynch: 13 Years with 28 Fumbles

LT: 11 Years with 30 Fumbles

Fred Taylor: 13 Years with 27 Fumbles

Jerome Bettis: 13 Years with 41 Fumbles

Marshall Faulk: 12 Years with 36 Fumbles

Edgerrin James: 11 Years with 44 Fumbles

Cory Dillon: 10 Years with 28 Fumbles

 

I didn't look up every RB but just some that came to mind that I thought played about the same amount of time as him. I could dig deeper into total games played divided by fumbles to get a more accurate answer
