Bucs Meeting With Former Dolphins CB Today




The Bucs are meeting with former Dolphins cornerback Brice McCain per Jason Cole of BleacherReport. McCain, 29 is a 6 year veteran who has made 19 starts over the past two seasons with the Steelers and Dolphins respectively. Being 5'9, McCain is more suited to play inside than on the outside, but having 19 starts over the past two years, shows his athleticism and being able to do both makes him more valuable. McCain was originally drafted by Houston in 2009, and would shortly become one of the better slot corners in the league. In 2011, he was outstanding with 13 pass breakups, and 2 Int, and recently he has played pretty well.  In his lone season with the Steelers, he started 9 games, and recorded 3 ints along with 6 pass breakups. Then last season with Miami, He had 10 pass breakups, and 1 int.

I think McCain would be a smart addition for the Bucs, and this team desperately needs help at defensive back. McCain would bring experience as he has been in the playoffs before, and has a winning attitude. Much like Sterling Moore, would bring position versatility as McCain can play inside or outside, and would bring competition to the corner position. If the Bucs can sign him to a fair deal, then I'm all for it as any defensive players right now are good additions.
