Heck, he\u2019s even publicly mocked Cameron Jordan when he played for the slimy Saints.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Joe likes when Licht dives into the media\/fan culture. More of that would be fun. Sports is supposed to be about entertainment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When Licht hunted down\u00a0Sports Illustrated\u00a0national columnist and podcast Connor Orr for a public finger-pointing two years ago, media types took notice. Joe heard the buzz in various circles, and <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/nfl-daily-with-gregg-rosenthal\/id680904259\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NFL Daily<\/a> host Gregg Rosenthal went there during his recent assessment of the Bucs\u2019 2026 free agency moves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Rosenthal is known well for his work on NFL.com and has had Licht on his show. Before handing Licht a grade of \u201cD\u201d for the Bucs\u2019 signings and losses of the past two weeks, he felt compelled to pause and talk about how Licht called out Orr years ago and how that still moves Rosenthal to this day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cHe\u2019s still in the \u201cD\u201d range here,\u201d Rosenthal said of Licht\u2019s free agency moves. \u201cIf they want to clip this and bring it back to me after all these moves work out well \u2014 Al-Quadin Muhammed actually ups his sack total \u2014 then I\u2019ll be happy to take it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Muhammed, of course, is the Bucs\u2019 free agent edge rusher signing. He had a surprising 11-sack season last year for Detroit as a part-time player.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Rosenthal wasn\u2019t overly impressed by that signing and he referred to the Bucs adding defensive tackle A\u2019Shawn Robinson as \u201cjust a workman-like, rotational defensive lineman.\u201d He also implied Robinson is overpaid at $10 million per year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Overall, Rosenthal said there\u2019s little to \u201chang your hat on\u201d with the Bucs\u2019 offseason, and\u00a0Rosenthal also is skeptical the Bucs really wanted to keep Mike Evans. He added that the Bucs\u2019 collapse did not get enough national attention because media was distracted by the imploded Ravens and Bengals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Listeners to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joebucsfan.com\/2026\/03\/inside-this-weeks-jason-licht-sitdown-clashing-views-of-the-state-of-the-bucs-the-lavonte-david-latest-and-more\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Ira Kaufman Podcast<\/a> heard the divide at JoeBucsFan.com world headquarters when it comes to free agency.
