    It was only a couple of years ago that Eugene Wilson was considered one of the 15 best safeties in football. So what do the Bucs have in store for one of the newer additions to their secondary? They're going to play him at corner. Even after drafting Kansas cornerback Aqib Talib in the first round of this past weekend's draft, the Bucs' plan is to move Wilson to corner. It seems a little crazy, but it might not be as crazy as it seems. Though Wilson hasn't played cornerback since he was in college, he was pretty good, getting his hands on 71 balls and intercepting 11 during a three-year run at Illinois.

    Interesting move but with excellent corners in Buchanon and Barber in the fold, they can afford to experiment a bit.
