| Buccaneers In No Hurry To Sign LB Barrett Ruud Long-Term | | |
The Buccaneers protected themselves from losing RFA MLB Barrett Ruud to another team by issuing him the highest possible tender, meaning an opposing club would have to give up both a first-round pick and a third-rounder if he signed an offer sheet and the Bucs chose not to match the offer. The sixth-year veteran is still hoping to get a long-term deal done with Tampa Bay, but sources don't expect GM Mark Dominik to give Ruud the offer he wants anytime soon. The Bucs, like many teams, are hesitant to commit to long-term contracts with uncertainty about the Collective Bargaining Agreement and a potential lockout in 2011.
