Is Mike Glennon on the trade block?
By Pat Yasinskas | ESPN.com
When all is said and done, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers could end up with more than the six draft picks they presently hold.
Glennon
General manager Jason Licht previously has made it clear the Bucs are willing toentertain offers to trade down from the seventh overall spot in the draft. Now comes news of the potential for adding another pick or picks.
ESPN’s Adam Caplan told Tampa radio station WDAE (620 AM) that he believes the Bucs are trying to move backup quarterback Mike Glennon. There’s some pretty good logic to that.
Although Glennon started 13 games last season, it was for the previous coaching staff. One of the first moves new coach Lovie Smith made was to go out and sign veteran Josh McCown. Smith promptly named McCown his No. 1 quarterback.
Smith has been complimentary of Glennon, but it’s pretty obvious the coach isn’t enamored with the second-year quarterback. There have been reports that the Bucs might be interested in drafting Johnny Manziel with their first-round pick.
If that happens, Glennon would drop another notch on the depth chart. But, to other teams, Glennon might be more valuable than a third-string quarterback. The Bucs possibly could end up with a mid-round pick in exchange for Glennon. This is one situation to keep an eye on as the draft gets closer.
Report: Bucs willing (or maybe eager) to trade Mike Glennon

The Buccaneers signed quarterback Josh McCown this offseason, and might draft a future starter next week.
Which means they have a gently used former third-rounder, which could be yours for the price of less than that.
According to Adam Caplan of ESPN, the Bucs are willing to trade quarterback Mike Glennon.
Last year’s third-round pick started 13 games, and was not awful. There were stretches when he looked downright competent, so someone who valued him a year ago might be willing to part with something to bring him in at a reduced rate.
The Bucs have been mentioned as a possible landing spot for Johnny Manziel, so with McCown already on hand for short-term cover, Glennon would be extraneous.
The Bucs could also stand to add some picks, as they’re short a fourth-rounder (the remnants of the Darrelle Revis trade).
