With rookie safety Cody Grimm on injured reserve, it would appear that the Buccaneers would have a newfound appreciation of safety Sabby Piscitelli.

It would appear that way, but it isn’t that way.

In a flurry of roster moves, the Bucs have cut Piscitelli, a second-round pick in the 2007 draft.

They also placed guard Davin Joseph and defensive end Kyle Moore on injured reserve, and that promoted a trio of players from the active roster: safety Vince Anderson, receiver Dezmon Briscoe, and guard Brandon Carter.

The Bucs also signed safety Larry Asante from the Browns’ practice squad.

Piscitelli started 15 games in 2009, and he appeared in all 11 games in 2010, with no starts.
