Report: Bucs have Garcia on the trade block

Profootballtalk.com reports that Bucs are shopping Jeff Garcia and are "willing to take anything they can get."

Jon Gruden and Garcia are reportedly "ready to kill each other." The Bucs look set to go forward with Luke McCown backing up Brian Griese after benching Garcia. If Packers GM Ted Thompson wasn't so married to his draft picks, including late-rounders, Green Bay would be a logical fit. But no team is going to go out of its way for a twinkle toed 38-year-old with an illogically big ego. Sep. 11 - 12:32 pm et

A pro-bowl quality back-up qb who has taken several teams into the playoffs :shock:

I'd take him in a second. He is exactly the back-up we need. I'd give up a 4th for him.

Are you willing to risk losing Brohm or Flynn by putting them on the practice squad?

I wouldn't take Garcia. Packers are building for the long term, getting Garcia defeats that purpose.

I DEFINITELY could see Minny taking him. Because if Chilly doesn't do something this year, both he and Tarvaris Jackson will be bounced out of town.

I just don't know. Part of me wants him, part doesn't. Part thinks they would go after him, but mostly I think they wouldn't. I think Chilly goes to Frerotte now if Jackson isn't getting it done by game 4.

And in the playoffs has as many TDs as he has INTs with about a 75 passer rating. No thanks.

Of course, it doesn't matter how he's played in the playoffs because Aaron's gonna be the one playing in the playoffs, not Garcia.

And would Garcia even want to play somewhere like Green Bay, who's QB situation with Favre has added fuel to the fire in Tampa?

Pass.

Agreed. I'd be willing to lose Bush, Peprah, or that rookie OL to have the security of having a great backup. Unfortunately, I could see Garcia going to Minnesota. That would make them a lot more formidable.

We are kinda stretched too thin at a number of other positions to keep 4 QB's on the roster. Who do we get rid of? Can't get rid of any OL or DL because of injuries, we only kept 5 WR as is, our extra LB and DB are both special teams guys... I don't think we could do it.

Maybe Peprah. Bush is too valuable on ST's, and he can step in as the emergency safety if something happens to 2 of the 3 guys ahead of him. I still don't think they'd do it in order to keep 4 QB's on the roster.

Was Childress still in Philly when Garcia was there? He would be familiar with him then, but I think he was already a Viking.

A 4th is what we might end up getting for Favre. What's the point of that?

I'd give a 7th. He would be nice to have if we need someone for a couple games. If Rodgers goes down for the year, I don't like our chances with Garcia in the playoffs. But if Rodgers is out for a week or two, Garcia could keep us in contention until Rodgers get back. That would be worth a 7th. The biggest problem is the roster spot. We might be able to clear one at sometime but remember, when Harrell comes back we need to clear another one. Giacomini might be expendable once Wells and Sitton get healthy, but before that time I think we gotta keep him.

09-11-2008, 04:23 PM
In my opinion, this is a no brainer. You get him, now. You give up a 7th and keep 4 QBs on the roster. You then cut Bush. There are a million guys like Jarrett Bush. If A-Rod goes down, we're screwed.

All the above being said, it will never happen. TT will stick with his plan no matter what.

Your special teams just won a game for you, Bush isn't as expendable as you might think. If ARod goes down, Garcia won't save the season.

There maybe guys like Bush available, but there are also vet QBs who are available.

Hate to say it, but Harrell won't be back for at least another 5 weeks and there will likely be an injury or two before then. Maybe Brohm can sprain his ankle in practice.

If Brohm is so smart, you'd think he get the hint the fourth time McCarthy told him in the Tennessee game "to go out there and break a leg!"

I'm with you on this one, Ballhawk.

Flynn would be OK if he was ever needed to play a significant amount.

Garcia is exactly what I have been saying all along that we DON'T need. I have a hunch Thompson and McCarthy see it that way too, even if many in this forum and most of the media fools do not.

Also, I think it would send Favre fans into an even bigger tizzy becuase they would say "See, you should have kept Favre". The Packers don't need those idiots spouting off even more.

Yes, there are guys like Bush available. But we need Bush on the team now; if we cut him, we need another ST gunner, so we're back where we started.

Flynn or Brohm for Garcia + a pick makes the most sense. That's if Garcia is happy coming in here and being a backup, which some seem to think we won't.

Oh dude she was not even very hot. But she had really well proportioned cans, and as a card-carrying member of the 'finer things' club I can digg on that.

I would have Brohm "severely pull a hammy" and get Garcia. I'd say we're poised to make another run at it then if we stay healthy.

What is your basis for Flynn? Flynn was significantly better than Brohm but to say he is a serviceable backup is ridiculous. AR was not ready during his first two years.

Garica was a pro bowler last season with good skills. If Garcia agrees to be a backup obtaining JG is a no brainer. Keep 4 qbs on the roster. Agreed Jarret Bush is easily expendable given Tramon Williams, Blackmon, Lee and Rouse.

If Brohm could be traded for a 2nd or 3rd round pick the trade should be done if Garica is dealt for.
