Defensive end is No. 1 target of Tampa Bay Brad Biggs
Reports right now are linking Aaron Kampman to the Seattle Seahawks, suggesting that the high-motor defensive end could be headed west to reunite with new general manager John Schneider, who knows him well from their days in Green Bay.
That very well could happen. With Julius Peppers en route to Chicago and the Bears expected to get his name on a contract by the end of the day, and with Kyle Vanden Bosch apparently landing in Detroit, Kampman is easily the most talented pass rusher on the market.
And there is one team that doesn’t have a lot of money committed to players that has a lot of interest in Kampman. A league source with knowledge of the situation said that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have “huge” interest in Kampman and classified the veteran as the club’s No. 1 target in free agency.
It would make sense. The Bucs have a very real need for a pass rusher and with a young team and young coaching staff, Kampman is the kind of player who could come in and provide a steadying influence.
Whether or not the Bucs will get an opportunity to make a run at Kampman remains to be seen, but rest assured Tampa is in pursuit.

Wow, I'm falling behind. I didn't hear about Vanden Bosch going to Detroit. Holy crap do the Packers need to beef up their o-line. Half the games on their schedule will face them up against Jared Allen, Julius Peppers or Kyle Vanden Bosch. The Packers have some serious work to do on the o-line.
I hope Kappy goes to Tampa, they need him more. Aaron's a good leader for the defense and that young team really needs a guy like Kappy to show them how to be a pro.
Good luck Aaron, I wish Ted would have found a way to deal you instead of just loosing you in FA.
With all the talent the Packers stand to lose in FA this year, do they stand to receive some decent compensatory draft picks next season?

So the Lions target a healthy Vanden Bosch and the Bucs go after Kampman off of Green Bay's IR? Come on Dominik, is that the best you can do? Of course Kampman is probably "bargain basement".
I would like to know the "source" of this story, because the Bucs GM says it is not true.

Every time I see someone cite an unnamed source, it ends up being a big fat lie. If you don't have any news to report, don't go making crap up.
three-year contract. It’s not known if Rabach or Mawae would be looked at to play guard. The Redskins have multiple holes on their line. Stay tuned.
