    Does Gruden live in TN? I had a couple folks swear that was the case last night.

    I have always been under the impression that you can't trade coaches anymore.

    If we managed to trade Fisher (More than likely a first but I would settle for a half stick of 3 year old Trident) and somehow managed to get Gruden, I would be more excited about this franchise than I have ever been.

    I have a feeling he would change our defense drastically though. We have a pretty small defense for what Gruden had.

    I want Rob Ryan but it would awesome to trade Fish for a 1st or 2nd. We can draft a good QB in case VY flames out with his new coach. *cough* cam newton *cough* sorry, i like mobile qbs. Shoot me. Ive been watching this team with a mobile qb for years now.

    Here is your source since you were too damn lazy to find it yourself.

    http://www.sptimes.com/2003/01/17/Bucs/NFL_nixes_draft_picks.shtml

    "Now such a deal is against league rules.

    The league Thursday banned the type of trade that enabled the Bucs to sign Gruden. The new policy was announced in a memo to all 32 teams by commissioner Paul Tagliabue, league spokesman Greg Aiello said.

    Tagliabue acted after the competition committee concluded that such coach-for-picks trades might be undermining the purpose of the draft. "


    You know what i'm tired of? Arguing with idiots. Lazy f*****g idiots!

    It has been illegal since 2003.

    It says in that article:
    "The league's owners can decide whether to restore the right to trade draft picks for coaches at their annual meeting March 22-26 in Phoenix."

    Herm Edwards was traded after the 2005 season so, obviously, something allowed that to happen whether it was this owner's meeting that year or since.
