Bucs agree to terms with McCoy, Penn

Football Betting Lines

07/31/2010 - Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and first-round draft pick Gerald McCoy have agreed to terms.

McCoy, a defensive tackle from Oklahoma selected with the third overall pick of April's draft, reportedly agreed to a five-year deal.

In addition, the Buccaneers have also worked out a six-year extension for offensive tackle Donald Penn. Financial terms of Penn's deal were not disclosed, but the St. Petersburg Times reports it is worth about $42 million.

Penn had declined to sign a one-year tender offer as a restricted free agent. He has started 44 straight games at left tackle.

"We're finishing up some language and paperwork [on McCoy's contract]," said Bucs general manager Mark Dominik before Tampa Bay's Saturday morning practice. "We're excited about having him for the afternoon practice. It's a great day for the Bucs in terms of securing two players who could be very important to this organization to long-term deals."

McCoy earned All-American honors in each of his last three seasons at Oklahoma and last year had six sacks with 15 1/2 tackles for loss.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
