This is great news! Boston won't be anyone's "back-up."
I understand that he's in great shape & has overcome his injuries. Being a former teammate of Chris Simms in Texas. This is good, it will be an asset for the team. Simms will have a positive comfort level in making him another "go to" man. Chris's comfort level with Galloway has developed into a good connection for big yardage plays. This will also prove as a positive move in this direction for the big gains.... I am all for it!!!!

What we'd heard last year was that Boston had bulked up and morphed into a TE rather than a wideout. Does anyone know if he's come down in weight class and regained his speed and mobility? If so, then he's another guy that Michael Clayton needs to worry about. Between Boston, Stovall and the "contract" Gruden sprung on Clayton to assure that he puts in the effort this off season; it appears that Jon's doing everything he can to make sure that Michael's motivated. Of course, if Boston's still big, he could always back-up Alex Smith. :-)

* BREAKING NEWS: Bucs Sign WR Boston
------------------------------------------------
TAMPA - A week after working him out at their One Buc Place complex, the Bucs signed wide receiver David Boston to a contract, the Tribune has learned. Boston is a former first-round draft pick of the Arizona Cardinals (eight overall) who spent the last two seasons with the Miami Dolphins but played sparingly because of injuries. Boston had a breakout season in 2001, catching 98 passes for a league-leading 1,598 yards and eight touchdowns.
