Bucs trade for C-OG Mahan

The Bucs were busy retooling their O-line Tuesday, dealing Dan Buenning to the Bears and acquiring C-OG Sean Mahan from the Steelers.
Tampa sent Pittsburgh a 2009 seventh-round pick for Mahan, who lost a training camp battle to Justin Hartwig for the starting center spot.
Mahan gives the Bucs some much-needed depth on the interior O-line. After ORG Davin Joseph broke his foot in the third preseason game, rookie Jeremy Zuttah was thrust into the starting lineup. Mahan, who spent the first four seasons of his six-year career with the Bucs, will provide some security behind the youngster.
