Buccaneers Now Believe In Mike Glennon As Long-Term QB
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' new regime had appeared to have a pessimistic opinion of Mike Glennon as the long-term solution at quarterback, but that appears to have changed.
The Buccaneers signed Josh McCown in the offseason and were also linked to quarterbacks in the draft.
"We looked at all the tape of last year," Jason Licht told SiriusXM NFL Radio's Alex Marvez on Tuesday. "Having him in the building and going through that first minicamp with him and seeing how he was in meetings and interacted with the team -- and more importantly how he was on the field -- just secured our feelings of how we evaluated him and felt about him."
Said Licht: "That really helped with our draft strategy."

Buccaneers Interested In Trading Mike Glennon For 2nd Round Pick
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are interested in trading away Mike Glennon for a second round pick.
Glennon finished the 2013 season as the Buccaneers' starting quarterback, but the club signed Josh McCown in the offseason to start in 2014.
Lovie Smith did say that Glennon would have a chance to compete with McCown before the season.
The Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals, New England Patriots and Chicago Bears are potential landing spots for Mike Glennon.
