Unrestricted free agent Cato June, one of the NFL's top "cover two" linebackers, is headed to the team that all but invented the scheme that helped make him a Pro Bowl performer.

June, who helped lead the Indianapolis Colts to a Super Bowl XLI championship in 2006, on Saturday reached agreement with the Tampa Bay Bucs on a three-year contract. June visited with Bucs officials and coaches on Friday and the two sides struck a quick deal.

ESPN.com has learned that June will sign a three-year contract worth slightly in excess of $12 million. But the structure of the contract, negotiated by the Manhattan-based Sportstars agency, will all but mandate that the Bucs revisit it before the three years is up.

this is great for the Bucs

Hell of a pick up for Tampa Bay. June had a couple of really good seasons for Indy and should really help solidify that Bucs defense.

From J. Scott @ Buc 'Em Blog

Cato June is exactly what this team needs on defense: he's only 27 years old, has great instincts/hands, and has a knack for stopping the run. Cato can even play a little safety as he did in college at Michigan. He looks to steal all of the playing time from Jamie Winborn and for good reason. This should conclude the Bucs Free Agent spending and thus its now time to focus on the NFL Draft.
