Exclamation Bucs have released Jeff Charleston

Should we re-sign him?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers just announced they have signed tight end Nate Byham and released defensive end Jeff Charleston. Byham is known as a strong blocker and that’s something the Bucs didn’t have at tight end through the first four games. He also played at the University of Pittsburgh with current Tampa Bay tight ends coach Brian Angelichio.

No. Graham is still better and it doesn't sound like Charleston would help blocking because that's why he got cut.

All Graham needs is a good jolt of electrocution and he's good to go.

Yes sign him and cut McBride. At least Charleston gets his uniform dirty now and then.

Charleston is no better than the DE's we currently have.

True, but depth hasn't been a problem at DE... yet

I probably never should have typed that.

If he can put any semblance of pressure on the qb, that would be an improvement. Give him another shot!
