machinegun12 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) I, for one, would love to see the Bills take this gamble. Likely wouldn't happen but if he could come back at even 80% of what he was he would be an excellent pickup for any team. http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=6115965 Edited February 13, 2011 by machinegun12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Early bet he goes back to Gmen. WR injuries cost them a post-season appearance last season. He knows their system. And I don't think they want to make the same mistake other teams made passing on Vick. Only question is will there be a huge pusg to get Plax out of NYC thinking it will help him stay out of trouble. I think the "he's a new man" argument will over ride those concerns and he'll be back in Giants blue. I don't see him going to Jets because they're known as an undisciplined team, and that's not what he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Well if Drew Rosenhaus says it, it must be true. Someone will pick him up, but it won't be the Giants. As an organization, they aren't big on guys who embarrass the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I don't know. This is proverbial Raiders territory. Everybody else's degenerates, trouble makers, and malcontents eventually become Silver and Black. Atleast, that was the legend. Raiders haven't lived up to their own hype in over a decade. Plaxico is like Vick territory for me. If you're stupid enough to do time, then I don't want you on mine. Pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously what are odds he does something like that again? He knows at this point it's one and done. Gmen should take a seriously look at re-signing him.

dayman Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 As an general rule our organization does not prefer to do anything that is plainly in our best interest. We must be tricked into it if we are ever to amass talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Maybin looks great too. Can't play a lick, but he's in rock solid condition. Receiver is the one place we don't need to bring in a guy at the end of his career like we did with TO 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 He may physically look good, but he's nowhere near game shape. He will need at least two years to get to that point, just like Vick did with the Eagles. Any team that picks him up is really picking him up for the following season. He'd spend this season getting into mental and physical shape to play professional football again and staying out of trouble. I'd think the Ravens or Eagles would be teams he'd be interested in.

coseybedaman Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Why on earth does everyone on this board think we are set at wide receiver. Steve Johnson couldnt catch a cold in a snow storm after he blew the Steelers game, and Lee Evans is a decent/ok at best as a #1. Get real guys. Saying Plaxico Burress wouldnt improve this teams receiving corps is just insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
