I wonder if Parcels might not want him in Miami to augment Ronnie Brown?
Or maybe the TItans might want another ex-Falcon.

Of course the Lions are interested. Heck they are so desperate at RB that they even are considering re-signing Tatum Bell. 8-o

I expect him to reunite with Dungy and back up Addai in Indy. Gives him a shot at the ring that eluded him when he left Tampa for Atlanta.

Dunn's a class act. Best of luck Warrick. ;-D

Dunn has been a professional throughout and wish him the best. I think his best shots of playing time would be in HOU, serving as the CoP back or receiving back with either A.Green or a rookie to be drafted. His leadership skills lone will be worth the pickup, especially to a team that drafts a rookie.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see him in HOU or Indy....I think yahoo had something on him being in touch with the Bucs and trying to drum up interest with the Cowboys too.

I think he would be perfect for the Cowboy's. He still has a few years left in his tank due to the spliting carries his whole career. I think we could get him cheap.

I dunno about a "few" years (he racked up some pretty big carry totals 3 of the past 4 years (265, 280, 286, 227), but he could be an excellent short-term solution as a COP/compliment to Barber. I think the 'Boys are looking for someone that can carry more of a load than that though. I have no idea why (injury concerns, paranoia, whatever), but It doesn't seem (from where I sit at least) that Barber's gonna get the chance to be the "the guy" that almost everyone outside that organization thinks he should.

My money still says he ends up reunited with Dungy in Indy backing up Addai.

He is truly a great guy, so I hope for his sake that he continues to get an opportunity to play. Maybe he'll go to the Cowgirls? :-?

Bucs agreed to terms with RB Warrick Dunn on a two-year, $6 million contract, according to NFL Network's Adam Schefter. Dunn will make $3 million in 2008.
Dunn returns to where his career started, most likely as a third-down specialist and replacement for free agent Michael Pittman. Michael Bennett's roster spot is now tenuous, especially if Cadillac Williams can get healthy. Among all the Bucs' backups, Dunn has the best chance to be a valuable handcuff for starter Earnest Graham. He won't be a threat to Graham's job. Mar. 10 - 7:04 pm et


Welcome Back Warrick ;-D

Well, he certainly meets the minimum age requirement to play for Tampa. :-D

I don't know that he's no threat to Graham, or at the very least to poach a fair number of touches from him. You can never really tell with Chucky.
