Bills cut QB Tarvaris Jackson; Signs with Seahawks

I can't imagine he's going to stick with another team; he may get a try out every now and again, but he's never been very promising, even when he was a starting quarterback. Moves like this do make me laugh though when they come on the heels of the team signing him in the same year.

Jackson can be a solid backup QB, I think he will catch on somewhere. The Bills obviously didnt have a need for him with the additions of Kolb and Manuel.

I would love it if we cut Vick and signed TJack, dead serious

He'd be a fine backup somewhere, he won't go long without at least a tryout I'd imagine.

I would love if the Jets signed him.

I'd like him the come back to the Seahawks as their backup.

In all seriousness, I would love for Tarvaris to come back and compete for the backup job. He knows the system, knows most of the players, and is good enough to manage a game in spot duty. I'd still prefer to see Jerrod Johnson surprise us all and win this job Pray

but TJack would be good competition.

I actually loathed him as a starter here and I can't believe I'm saying I'd be willing to have him back Laughing

I guess our backup QB position isn't too bright.

How does this effect the compensational draft pick Seattle was supposed to get for Jackson?

Dang...Was hoping he'd be the starter in Buffalo.

He's a good backup QB. I could see Chicago, Baltimore, or Kansas City all look his way.

Bring this guy back to Seattle! He can't lead a game winning drive for crap, but he can manage a game with the best of them. I'd rather have a proven backup on our team than Quinn or Johnson.

I figured this would happen before the seasons started, but this came sooner than I expected. I guess it makes sense though if they really want to develop Manuel while making sure Kolb is ready day 1. More snaps to split between them.
