<![CDATA[What do we have to do to get Plaxico Burress?]]>The absolute number one thing this team needs to get back on track (assuming Romeo is already out as coach) is to get rid of Braylon Edwards and replace him with a wide receiver that can catch balls that hit him in the hands. I'm thinking we can get a good deal on Plaxico Burress. He's a troublemaker and drama queen, but we need someone who can catch. Any ideas on how we can get him? Is there going to be a better wideout available next year?

1. Wait for his jail time to be up.

2. Wait for reinstatement to the NFL.

3. Outbid the Bengals and Ravens.

On the bright side Plex and Donte are probably going to make parole about the same time so we'll have a choice on who we want to bring in.

I guess I'm in the minority of those who want to keep Braylon.

Isn't it shocking? I'm with you, not being able to believe all of the folks who want to ship this guy...

If he is convicted he could have max 3.5 yrs so until we know about his sentence we should just wait and watch.

Actually, from PFT.com......"a guy facing felony charges that could result in a mandatory minimum prison stay of 3.5 years"

sign him for a decent two year deal. The only receiver we have got is Edwards and BE is good only when he is confident !

I could not think of a more effective way to destroy a team than to sign Plaxico Burress. I had this opinion BEFORE the gun issue. A new coach has a lot better uses of his time than to spend 80% of it watching over one player.

A few years ago, in an economic move, the Steelers had to choose which WR to keep - Ward or Burress. They kept Ward. He is probably headed for Canton. They let Burress walk. He may be headed for Sing Sing. Million dollar talent, ten cent brain. What is it with all the head case wide receivers at the present time?

yeah makes no sense to sign him now.

On the other hand, this could help push forward that BE to New York deal that was being discussed a few weeks ago.

Plax and Vick are not even in the same ballpark.

He should be big enough to play DL.

Along with Plax and Vick, we can make a offer to Pacman and then bargain for Larry Johnson since Mangini and Pioli are such good friends.

Any other disgruntled cancers or convicts or over-the-hill hasbeens out there without a team.

NO, NO, NO...a thousand times NO!!! We do NOT need cancer after all the team has been through.

Say what you want about this guy, but he made Eli Manning look like a great QB. Look at Eli without him.

WTF is going on today? First a post about Vick, then Plaxico? What the heck; why not OJ. I'll bet he'll have some gas left in the tank, and we could use a guy who knows how to knife through the competition.

Now there is a guy who could help more than Plex! What a slashing type runner he was! Nobody could cut like OJ. He probably would take a smaller contract since he already has money from selling his memorabilia and from licensing his wife's likeness as a Pez dispenser.

Bake a cake with a hacksaw in it. I like Vick better as an acquisition. It would be a fitting fate for him to play for a bad organization, surrounded by thousands of angry paople in dog masks out for his blood.
