Buccaneers Spend Least Between 2004-08

Posted Jul 1, 2009 by Anwar S. Richardson

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have spent the least amount of money on player costs between 2004 and 2008, according to an article posted last week on NFL.com

Jason La Canfora reported that Tampa Bay $449 million, which includes gross totals spent on salaries and bonuses, over the past five seasons. That total is last in the NFL.

Conversely, Dallas lead the NFL with $566.89 million spent during that time frame, while Seattle is second ($552.42 million), followed by Washington ($547.37 million).

Between 2004 and 2008, Dallas and Tampa Bay have made the same amount of playoff appearances and wins- two appearances and no wins. Washington has made two appearances and has one playoff win. 

Here is the article: Moneyball, NFL Style

In 2005, the Glazer family purchased Manchester United in one of the biggest deals in sports annals, acquiring the prestigious Premier League soccer club for more than $1.5 billion.
