SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 IMO Ideal is someone who can actually throw the ball. 2/4 is 50%, but who's falling for that? 1

The kid has been less than impressive. The only reason I watched the 3rd and 4th QTR's was to see Wade get the ball.
GunnerBill Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 Is he? Why? Does the Practice squad need a water boy? Bless him, he has tried. I wanted him to succeed. But he has been God awful. 1
Big Turk Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 A waste of a practice squad spot...the chance he has to actually turn into a viable NFL QB is extremely low to near 0. 1
bmur66 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 If the Bills think he has the right stuff between the ears then I agree with the OP 1

Being a big UB fan I'd like nothing better than to see Tyree succeed, but it ain't happening this year. The guy really screwed himself leaving school before he was ready. I suppose the Bills could add him to the PS but if a better QB option shakes loose he's gone.
Chuck Wagon Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 Another guy, where if he went to Eastern Michigan no one would care about him. Did Carson Wentz or Josh Allen not playing SEC defenses stall their development?

He is a raw talent and should be added to practice squad as far as I'm concerned. The hate comes from seeing his play for the Bills, not from leaving UB. I mean really, you can see him play right? Besides they're are very few actual UB fans on TBD. And most arrived just last year. 2 minutes ago, Chuck Wagon said: Another guy, where if he went to Eastern Michigan no one would care about him.

But UB was the only D1 offer he got out of high school.
McBean Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 I’m sorry but he’s freakin awful. Terrible. He is an ideal cut. Nothing else. I’ve seen enough of that kid.

mjt328 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 Not sure the Bills even need a practice squad QB. Based on what we've seen against preseason 3rd stringers, Tyree Jackson is nowhere close to being capable of running an offense. He won't be active on gamedays. And in the event we needed a #3 quarterback to actually play, our front office would certainly scan the waiver wire for vets before putting Jackson on the field. We don't really need to develop another "future" guy. Both of our current Quarterbacks are young, and should be around for the next several years. Jackson is obviously not displacing Josh Allen anytime soon. At worst, Allen will get another 3-4 seasons to prove himself. Matt Barkley is also only 28, and has developed into a dependable NFL backup.
bigK14094 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 McD will make the call.with input from Bean.......I realise that the lack of polish and preparation needs to be overcome.....that was known day 1. My question is does he have sufficient accuracy to make it in the NFL. If he does, and training camp should have told McBean, he is practice squad material. If he is all over with his throws (ala EJ Manuel), then he is not practice squad material. Pretty simple to me, I just haven't seen him throw enough to know about the accuracy. YEs, the arm is strong, but is it ACCURATE? 1
zow2 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) As a UB fan it stinks to hear so many people rip the kid. But i can honestly say he hasn't done enough to earn the practice squad...at least not yet. He can throw the ball 100mph, we know this, and a few are on target, but he's not seeing the field and making reads fast enough. And when he does the ball has not been accurate the majority of the time. If he gets the final preseason game, I assume that will make or break his future with the club. The NFL personnel experts league-wide who decided not to draft Tyree were spot on. Edited August 27, 2019 by zow2
fansince88 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 First he has to survive Thirsday night. Good luck with that.
GymShorts84 Posted August 27, 2019 Posted August 27, 2019 The goal for your developmental practice squad QB is to one day be a reliable backup. A safe, steady, accurate QB that can hold the team stable for a half or a couple games, not a boom or bust candidate. There will be plenty of safe options after cut day. Improving Josh Allen’s accuracy or just developing into a less of a gunslinger is a tough task. Tyree Jackson is exponentially more raw and inaccurate. 29 minutes ago, mjt328 said: Not sure the Bills even need a practice squad QB.
