The Buccaneers on Tuesday signed defensive end Marques Douglas, as reported by Yahoo.com. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Defensive end Kevin Carter has decided to re-sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rather than sign a deal with the Oakland Raiders, according to ESPN.com. The Tampa Tribune is reporting that Carter has opted to sign a one-year deal with the Bucs rather than the two-year deal the Raiders were offering. "It was big money he turned down, but he went with his heart rather than the pocket," Carter's agent Harold Lewis told the Tribune. "A lot of people would have taken the wallet, taken more money and the guarantees to go to another city. Kevin has been playing for a long time; he's 34 years old, saved a lot of money, and found a place he and his family would like to call home for the next 34 years."

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers landed defensive back Eugene Wilson on Friday, according to the Tampa Tribune. "Coming from a winning tradition with the Patriots, Eugene felt he wouldn't be losing a step toward his ultimate goal, which is to win a Super Bowl, by signing with the Bucs," Wilson's agent James Sims said. "Tampa Bay is a first-class organization, and they came at us first. We probably should have just stopped the whole process right there and signed with them, but we had to listen and see what was out there."

It appears as though the Redskins, Buccaneers, and Bills are all interested in the services of free-agent wide receiver Bryant Johnson, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. Talks between Johnson and the Bears cooled down because the former Arizona Cardinal has a rather steep asking price.

The Buccaneers are the latest team to give Antonio Bryant a shot. On Monday, the Buccaneers signed the talented but troubled wide receiver, according to an Associated Press report. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. It is the latest move the Buccaneers made to shore up a thin receiving corps.

Six years after leaving the franchise he helped turn into a Super Bowl contender, Warrick Dunn is coming back to the Buccaneers, as reported by the Associated Press. The three-time Pro Bowl running back signed Monday with the Bucs, who needed to bolster their running game because Carnell ?Cadillac? Williams missed most of last season with a knee injury. There are also lingering questions about when Williams will be able to play again.

Brian Kelly, who played cornerback for Tampa Bay last season, has agreed to a three-year deal with the Detroit Lions, according to ESPN.com. Kelly becomes the fourth Buccaneer to land with the Lions. Former Tampa Bay defensive tackle Chuck Darby, safety Dwight Smith, and safety Kavlin Pearson are also new members of Detroit's squad.

Warrick Dunn, recently released by the Falcons and already having had discussions with the Buccaneers, still thinks he can be a force in the NFL, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I can still play this game," Dunn said. "This is tough. I'm not going to lie. I have a very strong base in Atlanta, a strong following, a lot of friends that I built over six years. There are a lot of people in the organization that I'm close to. They're family to me and it's hard to leave family."

NFL Network's Adam Schefter is reporting that Tampa Bay has acquired Brian Griese from the Chicago Bears. Griese is an 11-year veteran who played with Bucs' Coach Jon Gruden in Tampa in 2004-05.
