I'm baulking at the round 2 that went the other way, for a RB that is on a rapid decline. :/

Honestly this was bit of the reach on Bucs part..... Earl Holmes was rated high during the draft by Bucs and we still feel he will revive the career so lets see....... but its gamble ... feel we could have offered two - 3rd rounder so its bit overpaid but hope it will not come back to bite us.

I think he will be fine. I dont think he will loose much more in recent years.

I have had a player in decline start to boom, but as far as I know this has been a one off.

They are rare but do occur.
