For everyone wanting us to bring him in- here is some good insight from a guy who lives in Tampa, listens to sports radio daily, reads the paper every day, and follows the Bucs (though Rams will always be my first love).
Freeman has a multitude of issues- lets start with personally
He is a known partier- and when I say party- I don't mean just going to the clubs a lot(which he also does)- but partakes in party favors. There have been a number of local people who talk about seeing him in the clubs all the time- and is running with some bad dudes (druggies).
He is currently in drug treatment- he says for adderal- Im betting cocaine.
He was on a local sports radio show the day he was late for his own QB camp (which he showed up to at 12:30- he was supposed to be there at 9). He showed up just in time to take a few pics- then was on the radio show- and he sounded whacked out of his mind- not coffee- not weed- clearly drugs. The host on numerous occasions attempted to end the convo because he sounded horrible and wasn't making much sense and was rambling. I heard it live and thought " whoa- what is he on???).
QB wise- has a few glaring issues with mechanics- bad footwork being the biggest. Causes him to be quite inaccurate at times and he never works on it. He isn't the come in early - leave last type. he is a go through the motions type- which is why he wasn't voted team captain this year.
He is lazy- some un-named sources (which I hate btw) say players dislike the fact he doesn't work hard. Not a good leader and not well respected.
Freeman will never be a top level qb despite having a ton of natural ability. He still wants to be a starter- but not sure who is going to give him that type of opp at this point knowing all that. Jax maybe? cant think of anyone else. He would have to go through a serious change in his life and that is doubtful. Usually if you are lazy you aren't going to suddenly be a workaholic. He is better than any backup we have- but he also has baggage that I wouldn't touch right now until I know he cleans up his life. For TB to flat out cut him speaks volumes. For me- I would just say no to Freeman. and I like the guy- met him twice- and he was very friendly both times- seems like a cool dude- just has issues he needs to work out.
