Two Bucs on all-rookie team
Published: January 13th, 2008By Bucs Beat | tampabay.com - St. Petersburg Times and tbt*
Meant to post this the other day and forgot, but there were a couple of Bucs named to the Pro Football Weekly/Pro Football Writers of America All-Rookie team.
LG Arron Sears and DE Gaines Adams were named to the team, though FS Tanard Jackson didn't make the cut. The safties on the team certainly weren't poor choices however: Washington's LaRon Landry and Jacksonville's Reggie Nelson.
The PFW/PFWA awards are voted on by members of the association, of which the football writers at the Times are members. I would share my votes publicly, but I didn't my ballot in on time. My bad.
