Did Dirk Koetter tip his hand today on Week 2 of free agency?

Joe thinks so.

Koetter, of course, is not the Buccaneers general manager. That’s Jason Licht, architect of the grand slam. But Koetter certainly has a strong voice in personnel, and he even praised Licht earlier this year for having that voice as an offensive coordinator.

Today, when speaking during the introduction of nearly 33-year-old cornerback Brent Grimes, Koetter said “I’m not too tied up on guys’ age.”

That got Joe thinking immediately about looming free agent Roddy White, one of Koetter’s all-time favorite players he’s ever coached. White, 34, was healthy last year and certainly could upgrade the Bucs’ receiving corps. Heck, White caught a higher percentage of balls thrown his way last year than either Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans.

Joe has a hunch White is a little better than injured Louis Murphy and Donteea Dye.

Koetter also talked about how the Bucs aren’t “done” and he’s after “the right kind of guys in the locker room” for his new regime. White is known for being a fierce competitor and leader.

Stay tuned.
