Drewgetz Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 No link yet, just saw on ticker tape on NFL Network. Seahawks are "talking to a couple teams" about trading for Tavaris Jackson. Do you think the Bills are one of these teams. Do you think he would be a significant improvment over thigpen and young? Keep in mind the time it takes to learn the offense. Just wondering your thoughts.
McBeane Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Are the Bills one of those teams? I would be absolutely shocked, it would make no sense at all. Would he be a "significant improvement" over TT and VY? No.
1B4IDie Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 TJax is not an NFL quality QB. He has proven this time and time again. End of story.

Just wondering your thoughts. Would he be an improvement over VY and Pigpen? Maybe just a hair if at all, but at this point in the preseason and training camp it wouldn't be worth the change or give him time to learn the system.

Billsrhody Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I'd much rather have him than Thigpen or Vince
billsfan89 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I have seen Travaris Jackson bounce a pass off the ground to a wide open receiver with zero and I do mean zero pressure on him. The Vikings won with him because they had a stacked D, stacked O-line, and AP. He has sucked with Seattle. Not saying he wouldn't make a bad backup (Guy can run and make a few plays once in a while, and has played in a system where they asked him not to lose games) somewhere but he isn't an upgrade from Thigpen or Vince Young. In fact T.Jackson and V.Young are pretty much the same player. No use giving up a late round pick for something we already have on the roster.
reddogblitz Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) I like Tarvaris and wanted the Bills to sign him last year. But now I don't think he is better than Fitz and probably not better than Vince. Plus I think Tarvaris is in the last year of his 2 year contract he signed with the SeaChickens. So it would just be for one year. Edited August 16, 2012 by reddogblitz

If he has sucked with Seattle.. then Fitz has sucked with the Bills

Do you think the Bills are one of these teams. Only if the Seahawks are offering a 4th rounder or better to take him off their hands.
biglukes Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I've heard of him. I've also heard he's terrible. And by heard, I mean have seen him be terrible almost every time I've seen him play.
3rdand12 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 worth asking. but NO. By the way, i think Vince is getting IT. bye bye Mr Thigpen and thank you for the you tube clip. j/k
Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I'd much rather have him than Thigpen or Vince Why? Vince Young is basically Jackson.
Best Player Available Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Why? Vince Young is basically Jackson. Why trade for another one then?
PromoTheRobot Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Vince Young is another Shawne Merriman in that Buddy Nix makes a low risk move on a formerly great player. If either come close to their old glory, bonus. If not, what did you lose? If VY can find his game he will take over from Fitz down the road. If not we draft someone. PTR
stony Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I've heard of him. I've also heard he's terrible. And by heard, I mean have seen him be terrible almost every time I've seen him play. Do you remember that time he beat the Bills after Moats knocked out Favre? Seriously, I remember thinking I'd rather have the HOFer Favre in the game instead of Jackson. Picked on Leodis all game.
Simon Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Simon to thread...calling Simon to thread...STAT. I can't really add anything else just yet and this might be all wrapped up before I do
NoSaint Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Why? Vince Young is basically Jackson. And both are just younger mcnabbs.... Amirite?
Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 And both are just younger mcnabbs.... Amirite? Niether are close to McNabb, and McNabb doesnt want to be a backup, and Nix for some reason said he isnt a McNabb fan.
