Could probably only get an 8th for him 1 2 Quote
Cheektowaga Chad Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Is he a guy you could transition to safety? I don't recall his tackling abilities, but size wise,speed wise, and being more a zone guy all points to this in my opinion 1 Quote
Kelly to Allen Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Dane Jackson is the perfect vet backup cb 1 1 Quote

DCofNC Posted February 21 Posted February 21 He would have been the 3rd outside guy on the roster last year, if he comes in on a low cost deal, I’d be happy to have him back as a depth guy. 1 Quote

RyanC883 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 get him, get a CB in the 3rd or something. No need to reach. 1 Quote
Process Posted February 21 Posted February 21 No brainier. Such an easy fix for the CB3 spot and also a guy that can start if needed. 1 1 Quote
Don Otreply Posted February 21 Posted February 21 As a back up only, he’s not good enough to be a starter, jmo. 1 Quote
gonzo1105 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 59 minutes ago, FireChans said: Who do you like that’s better in FA and at what price. Paulson Adebo is my # 1 want but he’s probably going to fetch a pretty penny. A guy like Kristian Fulton might not be a bad play for someone cheaper. I will say maybe they bring back Jackson if they are trying to fill holes at it appears the Bills are now fully into the comp pick game and taking a guy like Jackson doesn’t count versus an Adebo 41 minutes ago, Mark Vader said: Don't underestimate Beane. He was able to trade Marshall Newhouse for a draft pick. If we trade Elam at this point it will probably be the old Boogie Basham pick swap. If we’re lucky we can get a 5 while giving up Elam and a 7th. I think that’s like best case scenario tho for the Bills Quote
machine gun kelly Posted February 21 Posted February 21 As long as vet. Minimum, I’m good with it. He knows the system and at most is the 4th CB, as you know Elam is gone. You couldn’t get a ham sandwich for that guy. Dane outplayed him regularly. Quote
GASabresIUFan Posted February 21 Posted February 21 (edited) We don't have to bring in every ex-Bill or ex-Panther (or in this case ex-bill and ex-panther) Maybe we can try for some better players? Nothing wrong with wanting Elam gone and to upgrade the CBs on this roster. It's a necessity, but bringing back Jackson doesn't move the needle. Edited February 21 by GASabresIUFan 1 1 Quote
BigAl2526 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I'm more interested in upgrading the position, not moving sideways. Sign a tier 2 free agent at least and then draft a guy in the first two rounds of the draft. Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 21 Posted February 21 If I had to guess based on the new DB coach, they are going to re-make their entire CB room with more man guys. So Jackson could be out. Quote
PauleeeWalnuts Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Guy would never get his head around, back was always to the ball. Drove me nuts 1 Quote
LABILLBACKER Posted February 21 Posted February 21 At the league minimum, sure why not as depth. It's not like we're keeping Elam anyway. Draft 2 CB's in April. I'd still try to go after DJ Reed or Adebo? Quote
davefan66 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Absolutely sign him. Keep looking in FA and draft for more CB help. Keep the best players! 1 Quote
