Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted October 31, 2014 ESPN's Adam Caplan reports the Bucs are expected to activate rookie Charles Sims from the injured reserve-designated for return list by 4pm ET on Saturday.The Bucs' third-round pick is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Browns, but his role remains unclear. The Tampa coaching staff likely hasn't even decided fully yet. Expect Bobby Rainey to get the start, and Sims to be eased in. That would be the conservative projection, of course. There is an outside chance Sims could become a useful flex play by as early as Week 10 against Atlanta. He should be rostered in leagues of all sizes. http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/nfl/299795/report-bucs-to-activate-charles-sims-by-sat Hype train leaving the station tomorrow......anyone starting Rainey or Sims this week rolling the dice big time.

Breesman32 11 Posted November 1, 2014 I have had to drop players to make room for bye fillers this week. I have two defenses because the broncos are trapping me and I'm rolling with colts against giants(if they can get a few sacks, a int or 2 on Eli they are gold this week they know how to take it to the house on int, fumble returns), I have to start someone over Rodgers and someone over Jeffery. I had to drop Holmes because I don't know what to expect for him against Seattle and Decker is also trapping me. Cooks was a wasted pick up for this week. So here's the deal, who do I drop to get this Sims guy? FJac Dixon(just got him back because I realized it was dumb to drop him) Evans Decker Broncos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 1, 2014 He did draft Forte... I think Sims was a Tedford pick. Which is the one thing that gets me here is no one really knows much about the TB OC and his offense has been really lousy this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 1, 2014 If you Google my name, you'll find a video of me playing college football, tearing up defenses like they're standing still and diving for air, Anyone else with actual observations and info on Sims??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted November 1, 2014 Anyone else with actual observations and info on Sims??? Yes, actually I do. Besides saving the fantasy season of countless owners in 2014, he is also a R & B singer who is dating a girl with B.O. issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BCIqVsS02s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo312 41 Posted November 1, 2014 Considering the success of just about every FA that Lovie/Licht brought in this year, I wouldn't exactly say he has an eye for talent. Yes, a FA disaster class this year. However, a little credit can go to Lovie for snarking Forte' in the 08 Draft. From what I remember, he actually wanted to draft Jammal Charles out of TX instead. Lovie is a defensive guy, but he has a few hits re: offensive talent. (I still can't forgive him for the 07 2nd round Garrett Wolfe mistake) Lovie loves Sims and Doug Martin was the old regime's guy. I think he sees a lot of Forte in Sims so let's see if he hit it right again.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
