The Buccaneers are passing through a weird phase in their offseason, they have actually 6 quarterbacks on their roster, not to mention the seventh, who you could still count because he never filed the correct paperwork for retirement (Jake Plummer, look closely in middle of pic).
For the other 6 quarterbacks, only time and practice will tell.
Whats the deal? why 6, it turns out, the odds are not so bad, because their starting QB is Jeff Garcia, so he has a secure place on the team, and is coming off a pro bowl season...... but, hes 38 years old!!!! (same as Favre) so retirement is pretty close, behind him, will be probably Brian Griese, who is 33 years old and is nothing more than a wise old veteran, but Gruden likes this kind of players, remember Rich Gannon on the Raiders? or Brad Johnson with the Bucs?
Those are by now the only two spots secure for the third spot the battle is between Bruce Gradkowski, Luke McCown and Rookie Josh Johnson from San Diego State University...
Chris Simms will probably be cut soon, and the fate of someone else is in Grudens hands... in my opinion they should remain with Garcia, Griese, Gradkowski and Johnson. If this happens, Luke McCown will be a talented Free Agent QB for some teams interested, maybe also Chris Simms, but his health is always a question mark...

After 11 Years of drafting him in 1997, Warrick Dunn has returned to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers... We just got word that he signed a 2 year contract worth around 6 million...
A good signing for both of them, maybe he is going back to Tampa to retire where he started, Im sure the fans will be happy about this one...
