Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

[Skooby]

SEC QB with NFL experience, we already paid for him with a draft pick so why not use him?

He could.

Problem is he'd have to dress for a practice, but he'd be deactivated. Tough luck.

Can we start setting our standards higher than mediocre to average at best?

Does that equal .500 ball?

Re: Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

Well it'd obviously take another year to groom him so he could learn a new offense again.

He's a UFA but he looks like a possibility for an uptempo K-gun/spread, unlike Fitz.

1 year deal. That's all anyone would offer him anyhow. Still find a Vet in FA and draft another QB in April. Cut Fitz.

Beat out by Flynn, who was beat out by Wilson. I think he has some upside but probably wouldn't be anyomre than a decent back-up. Gailey screwed us on this one. TJ shoud have been taking snaps the end of the season just for better evaluation if nothing else. I'd hnestly be suprised if agreed to sign here another year after being on the Bills inactive list all season.

Two organizations have asked that same question and answered no. Doubt the 3rd time's a charm.

Re: Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

I never say "never," but it's a loong shot. First, I think he's a free agent, I think, and being a little disgruntled because he never got activated the Bills would have to convince him he's got a legit shot or he won't re-sign. Second, the Bills can't count on him, so the Bills need to follow through with whatever plans they have to try and acquire a decent starting quality QB at least, and hopefully a lot better than decent. Since it is a brand new coaching staff and offensive system, andy QBs they have will start out with the same opportunity, so Tarvaris Jackson would have to beat out whatever competition there is.

Re: Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

I still can't believe he didn't suit up one time this year... that one will have me baffled to the end of time. Even if he isn't a savior, he might have been worth giving a look in the multiple games when Fitz was less than stellar.

If ever there was an appropriate time to shoot the messenger.

Re: Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

I think there's a reason he never suited up.

As of now, with a new offense and the fact that he's an FA - he's in the same pot of available candidates as Alex Smith and others. I haven't seen this guy do anything that makes me want him back.

And I don't blame Gailey at all for not starting him. There's a reason he was available and willing to come to B-Lo.

SEC QB

Tarvaris played 2 seasons at Arkansas and threw 48 passes in total and then transferred to Alabama State..Not sure I would call him a SEC QB

Re: Could Tarvaris Jackson become our starting QB?

He's very good in Madden. Fast and a really strong arm.

There isn't a lot we can do this year to overhaul the QB position. The free agent market is no good. The draft isn't compelling (yet).

Maybe the answer is Tarvaris, or some other unknown entity.

Don't count on feeling good about our QB situation in the off-season.

This was pretty much how I felt as well, it's just not looking like a good year to draft a QB.
