I also live in Tampa but I don't know much about Patrick Chukwurah. Just that if we (in this case, the Bucs) let an LB go, he probably isn't worth a pick up.
As far as Chris Simms, there is potential. He had a hot streak 2 years ago, but came back pretty cold last year in very limited playing time. Jon Gruden seems to jump on and off of player's jocks pretty quickly, and often lets solid guys go (John Lynch, where are you? also see current Graham/ Garcia issues). Apparently, he put some serious hate on Simms last year and this off season as Simms said his relationship with Gruden was unrepairable. If we hadn't just drafted a QB that is also versed in the WCO, I would say to give him a look. If it costs us nothing, it couldn't hurt, but I don't see him even threatening 2nd string.
