124 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 He still may which would void the trade. Lets see what happens. My question is this though... Why the hell would they have Simms, Garcia & Plummer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil Bit Special Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 He still may which would void the trade. Lets see what happens. My question is this though... Why the hell would they have Simms, Garcia & Plummer? http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2786694 Part of the rationale in completing the Plummer deal, after it had fallen apart, is that Denver coach Mike Shanahan does not want the quarterback to un-retire in a few months and attempt to sign with another team. League sources said Saturday afternoon that the Broncos suspected Plummer might still attempt to join the Houston Texans, where former Denver offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak is the head coach. By trading Plummer's rights to the Bucs, even for a conditional draft choice, the Broncos have forced his hand. If Plummer decides that he wants to play in 2007, he could not sign anywhere he wanted, because Tampa Bay now technically has been assigned his existing contract. The only potential risk for the Bucs is that, if Plummer does decide to play, Tampa Bay becomes responsible for his 2007 base salary of $5.3 million. It doesnt make sense to have 2 veteran QB's who'll make over $5 mil each this year + simms getting a $3 mil signing bonus and $5 mil this year... Guess Gruden really wants good QB's this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
