In Minnesota - Tarvaris Jackson Could Be Out
From Daily Norseman:
Charley Walters thinks T-Jack will be traded or released by Friday -- he thinks a seventh-rounder is the best the Vikings could receive in a trade. Not that I consider Walters the least bit credible, but it's interesting that Jason La Canfora talked to some league personnel executives and reached the same conclusion: Jackson is the odd man out. La Canfora sees a fifth-rounder as the most compensation a T-Jack deal could get for the Vikings.
I don't think QB Tarvaris Jackson is very good, but he's not worthless. He does have some value. The price of a 5th or 7th round draft choice is certainly not much for a player who had a QB rating over 95 last season. A lot of teams could use him as a potential starter or backup. What team would be the best fit for him?
Off the top of my head, I thought of St. Louis. His mobility might make him better suited for a dome team, and he would play at least 6 games against the lousy pass defenses of the NFC West. He might even make a decent backup fantasy option if he started for the Rams.

He'll get a job somewhere, but I doubt as a starter
If Rex Grossman, Mark Brunell and Joey Harrington are on teams, there is room for Jacksin.
St. Louis is maybe the best answer (long term), despite them getting Boller.
Atlanta ?
Is Chicago content with Caleb Hanie & Brett Basanez ? Similar offensive: good running game, overrated #1 wideout, a reliable TE to dump it off to when in a panic, and a bunch of “other guys”.
Chicago's not a bad idea
But I’m not sure Jackson would fit well in their offense. Although I’m not a fan of Bears offensive coordinator Ron Turner either.
Hi. Bears Fan here.
I don’t want him. And isn’t he already on a dome team. A dome team with a fantastic running back, solid receivers, and a good defense?
