Kleckineau Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Is Fitz hurt? Or has his poor preseason forced them to try to get Tavaris Jackson from the Seahawks. Add: Called and asked my Bills fanatic friend about this and he says Fitz is def not injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 FITZGERALD!!!!!!!!!! He's brilliant! He played just enough football to land a multi million $ deal then packed it in. This makes me laugh.... not hysterically, but I'm laughing none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 T-Jack deal not final yet, with salary a sticking point Posted by Mike Florio on August 26, 2012, 6:07 PM EDT The trade that will send veteran quarterback Tarvaris Jackson to Buffalo isn’t done yet, a source with direct knowledge of the situation tells PFT. The sticking point at this point is the compensation Jackson will receive from the Bills. Jackson currently is due to receive a base salary of $4 million in 2012, the last year of his current deal. Per the source, it’s believed the deal will be finalized, soon. It’s unknown whether the Bills would keep either Tylor Thigpen or Vince Young if they land Jackson. There’s a chance they’ll keep neither; Jackson’s eventual contract could shed significant light on whether one or both of the incumbent backups will stick around. The compensation that the Bills will be sending to Seattle isn’t known, either. Early speculation has settled on a 2013 draft pick in the fifth-to-sixth-round range.

Bleedin Green Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Well maybe the Bills wanted someone capable of playing QB after October after all. Not sure Jackson is that, but he can't be worse than Fitzy has been in November and December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetscode1 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Do the Jets bring in Thigpen or Young on a flyer? Or maybe just for intel? Not a flyer but possibly for intel...have to go with Thigpen...not sure Vince brings anything to the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Not a flyer but possibly for intel...have to go with Thigpen...not sure Vince brings anything to the table. Might have been a cheaper option than Tebow. I'd trust a "wildcat" QB that was cut to be happier being the protector on punts, holding on kicks than a guy like Tebow that was dumped because one of the all time greats took his spot.

HDKostempski Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm guessing it is bad news for Vince Young but that's just me. Young has been cut, so he's available. He played very poorly Saturday against Pitts' second stringers. There's been nothing official out of Buffalo or Seattle about the trade for Jackson. I suspect that if it's finalized that the Bills will keep Thigpen as their second QB for a while or maybe they cut him and go with Brad Smith for a while until Jackson gets a handle on the offense. Smith got some work at QB during the first 2 preseason games, so that might be the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hardly. Young might significantly improve the Jets, however. Well, according to you, Jackson isnt good enough to play in the NFL because he doesnt complete 60% of his passes, similar to Ryan Fitzpatrick. However, Tarvaris has a higher career completion percentage at 59.4 and compared to Fitz who is 59.2. So, you're getting closer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
