    Bills trade for Tarvaris Jackson

    I guess both Young and Thigpen are gone.

    NFL.com and NFL Network's Michael Lombardi and Ian Rapoport reported Sunday that the Buffalo Bills will acquire Tarvaris Jackson in a trade from the Seattle Seahawks.


    No word on Compensation yet.

          Would have to think his contract will be altered. He has a $4M salary this year and is a free agent in 2013. He reportedly was willing to talk about the contract as part of a trade. I wonder if they extend him multiple years as primary backup.

                Heh - what are we paying Fitz? Wouldn't that rock the house if Jackson beats him out at some point?

                  Florio is reporting it isn't done yet, as they are talking about the contract. It sounds like it will get done soon, once a new contract is worked out.

                    Jackson isn't a guy who is a starter for anyone at this point. He is 29 years old and has enough experience that it is pretty clear what he is. If he starts, it will be because he is holding the fort when Fitzpatrick got hurt or flopped. He isn't a solution, he is a backup.

                      Still better than Young and Thigpen

                          Well - it's not out of the realm of thought that other clubs might feel the same about Fitz.

                            It means that Thigpen is gone, and probably young too: Fitz, Jackson, and Smith, not a bad rotation at qb.

                              He's a good backup.. but we already have one of those in Fitz
