Yesterday morning, the Bills cut QB Tavaris Jackson.

But quickly the angry/mocking tweets started to emerge and it became clear that no, Tavaris Jackson was re signed...

On paper, this deal isn’t a terrible value. Tarvaris Jackson can earn up to 4.5 million with incentives with this deal, which isn’t unreasonable for a solid backup quarterback, which is what I think Jackson is. No longer is Jackson the “project/developmental quarterback.” He turns 30 in a couple of months and he’s as good as he’s going to get. He’s now an experienced...
