Gaines Adams Traded to Bears

3

I was never huge on Gaines Adams. I thought Jamaal Anderson had better potential, because he has better size and is nearly three full years younger than Adams. It looks like the Bucs have given up on Adams, even though he has played pretty well for them. Adams gets a chance to reestablish himself on a more talented line, the Bucs get a second round pick and are free from Adams salary and the Bears are that much more all-in on this season. It's an interesting gamble that isn't likely to kill anyone, but it sure doesn't speak well of Adams.
