As PFT's Michael David Smith suggests, it’s not surprising that the Bucs are still looking to trade Blount. Reports out of Tampa have suggested that he and HC Greg Schiano don’t see eye to eye, and the arrival of Doug Martin in last year’s draft reduced Blount to 41 carries last season. But Smith went on to advise readers the question is whether any team is willing to give up a pick for Blount. If somebody does, however, they will be adding a running back who’s 26 years old, who didn’t get much wear and tear last season, and who is only three years removed from a 1,007-yard season. It's hard to argue with Smith's contention that wouldn’t be a bad use of a late-round pick.
