Tavaris Jackson?

Tarvaris Jackson record as a starter=10-9

Josh McCown record as a starter=12-19

Matt Moore record as a starter=2-1

It almost seems silly to not use a 5th or 6th round pick ,that is pot luck at best already, on a quarterback that has potential and at times proven himself capable to play in the league.

[pstall]

Why TJ has done well to a degree. Would he fit the Panthers system? If you want to call it that.

He would be an upgrade no doubt.

[dpanthersman]

i like him. and i think he would be a decent backup. but at the same time we have much bigger needs than a backup QB. id be pretty upset if we wasted picks on a backup QB and not address the oline and dline depth

[Dorian Gray]

He's absolutely better than the back-ups. If he could be had for a 6th or 7th, I'd be happy.

[KillerKat]

Are you guys forgetting he got beat out by Gus Frerotte and now is going to be benched for a 40 year old QB with a bum shoulder?

[Dorian Gray]

No, I didn't forget that. But I do remember him coming back in and throwing 8 TD's with 1 pick in his last 4 games while also rushing for 76 yards against Atlanta. Nobody's saying this guy should replace Jake, but it's obvious he'd be an upgrade to the backup position.

[Carolina Husker]

I wasn't aware he was a run-stuffing DT...

[Mother Grabber]

Irregardless of whether or not we can stop the run, we're not going to win any super bowls with our QB situation as it is. We either need Jake to get more consistent, which may happen with the new QB coach, or upgrade the position. We don't know if we'll find a decent DT, though we're hoping we will. We have an opportunity to get a QB who is as good as we have now, and has potential to be a whole lot better. He also comes in cheap at under $600K. Looks like a win-win to me. Worst case scenario is that he's Jake 2.0 with a tan.

[Snake]

If they cut him sure.... He is def not worth a pick though.

You don't think Jackson is worth a pick at all? Do you think he's an upgrade over McCown (who cost us a seventh-round pick)?

[jramsey4]

I think Jackson has shown plenty to be worth a 7th. If you think about he has shown he can start and play at least above average where when you get a QB in the 7th of a draft he most likely wont even make the team. Ppl tend to value there 7's a bit too much. Its not long from there to when they become UDFA's. I say try to unload one of our bubble players and a 7th for this guy. At worst he brings us fans something to be excited about in what seems like an otherwise completely non-existent off-season.

[KaseKlosed]

Hell yes, Matt moore over T Jackson? dont think so, the guy has a higher passer rating than Eli Manning

Tarvaris Jackson record as a starter=10-9

Josh McCown record as a starter=12-19

Matt Moore record as a starter=2-1

well sure i mean if you follow that logic we should trade for Rex Grossman

FTR I do think he's better than McCown and i would sign him as a FA to drop Joshie but not because of W/L record, that is stupid. Teams win/lose games, not QBs.
