wtf.. so Claiborne isn't a good option but an old vet who failed a physical would be...

makes perfect sense..

Not sure what Claiborne has to do with it but Jackson is by no means old....he's 26

I'd bet his release has much less to do with a physical and more to do with his attitude so no thanks.

I haven't once stated I want Claiborne (although I think it can go unsaid).. however, you're flawed logic is definitely worth pointing out... and so I have (in both threads)..

try not to use the trolling card too often, it should be reserved for legitimate trolling, instead of trying to derail legitimate questions upon one's thought process..

Jackson had surgery on his shoulder. They didn't want to give him the time that it takes for the shoulder to heal, and they released him because "they are going in a different direction". But, he is expected to be back 100 percent before the season. Per NFL.com:

Just three months removed from shoulder surgery, Jackson's timeline would not have permitted him to be ready to pass a physical at this time, his agent, Peter Schaffer, told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora. Schaffer said Jackson will be 100 percent recovered this offseason and anticipates several teams being interested in the young safety, who has been an impact player when healthy.

Jackson is a decent corner with some upside, IMO. I would definitely list him B-Stock with A potential. The thing is is that he has had some injury issues:

"Man, my shoulder been injured since '09 and something that I put off and I played through a series of injuries," Jackson said. "Not to make excuses for the way I played, but I had a lot of injuries last year, two bad hamstrings and a torn rotator cuff. My body feels good right now. Obviously, there's more work to do but I'll be ready to play football."

Probably won't demand a whole lot monetarily. May be worth a flier, even with the recent pick-ups, but I'd kinda be surprised if we show interest.

its the offseason, why they giving him a physical in april? if he came to training camp completly out of shape, thats one thing, but its april.

They give physicals before a player shows up for offseason workouts which start this month. Plus if you are going to retain players or let them go you give them a physical first. Because if you release guys, if they are hurt because of a football related injury, you have to offer them an injury settlement I believe.

Sign Tarnard Jackson?

Before signing Reggie Smith- No.

After signing Reggie Smith- lol with what money?

I'm pretty sure Steve's extension freed up 5 million and on June 1st we get another 6 million from cutting Wharton.

Release Martin and pick him up. That would be good to me.

From now on anytime someone talks poo on Sherrod, I think I'll post that video. Not saying the dude is the answer at Safety but, he has some moves and is not that bad. Definitely better than Tanard Jackson.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By d-dave · Posted

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
