Bucs Release Depth Chart For Patriots Game

Now that actual games are going to be played, the Bucs are obligated to provide some concrete information about the lineup.

The biggest news is that Chris Simms is the #3 quarterback followed by Bruce Gradkowski. I still contend there is no way Gradkowski is off the roster this year, and the Bucs aren't keeping four quarterbacks despite what you hear in the papers.

Maurice Stovall is also ahead of Michael Clayton as the starting flanker.

John Wade is still the starting center.

Jovan Haye is ahead of Ellis Wyms at under tackle. Patrick Churwurah is the starting right defensive end with Gaines Adams backing him up.

Earnest Graham is the #3 running back for now. I had thought Kenneth Darby was outperforming him so far.

Things are going to change before the first regular season game, but this is how they'll take the field against New England.
