Seahawks Ready To Start Shopping QB Tarvaris Jackson

Found August 14, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jason La Canfora,  Tarvaris Jackson,  Matt Flynn,  Russell Wilson,  Pete Carroll
TEAMS: Seattle Seahawks
Jason LaCanfora reports that the Seattle Seahawks will start shopping Tarvaris Jackson around the league, barring an injury to either Matt Flynn or Russell Wilson. While Pete Carroll has said that it was a three-man competition for the team’s starting quarterback position, Flynn and Wilson have seen all of the playing time during the preseason, which be the case again this weekend. Jackson will make $4 million for the upcoming season, so it certainly makes to see them move on, even if they find no interest in him.

Philadelphia Eagles Should Trade For Tarvaris Jackson

I wrote an article early this morning describing why I think the Eagles should not sign Tarvaris Jackson. The more research I did, the more i realized; Tarvaris Jackson isn't really all that bad. Sure, he has never finished a full 16-games, but the Eagles don't plan on using him for a full season. Michael Vick averages 2-3 missed games per season if you don't count...

Final Public Practice – Observations

Via Seahawk Addicts  |  August 16, 2012
Notable Points Judging from this practice alone, Matt Flynn is the clear-cut favorite to start in week 1 of the regular season. Flynn, as advertised, showed crispness in his mechanics and his accuracy was top-notch, (only 3 incompletions during the entire practice). He often checked down short passes rather than airing it out deep, but did flash his arm on several occasions as...
