Will Plaxico Buress get a chance in camp next season

if we lose cotch and sanders will plax be back?

 

I hope we give our younger guys a chance to play. We need to be cheap somewhere, so plug in Wheaton, Moye and J. Brown, and let A. Brown, Bell carry our offense. Burress will cost too much and not provide enough return.

 

I don't think we keep him. At what? 36 years old. We need the youth movement to start. Get those young guys in there and see what they can do.

 

No, plax is done.

 

has anyone even heard from him? I mean was he still with the team at all

 

I think he's done...hate to say it but yeah. And I think at least one of Cotch/Sanders will be back (dare i say maybe both?).

 

Have mixed feeling about Sanders but Cotch is almost a must have. Plex is finished Im afraid, even if he took the minimum. They wouldnt pay Ward, dont think they ll pay Plex.

 

Wheaton replaces Sanders. Cotchery needs to be signed. Moye needs more reps, was inactive most of the season.

Plex. Bye Bye.

 

He's on the sideline weekly. I don't see a guy who's on IR hanging around the team every week if he doesn't have some kind of assurance he'll at least have an opportunity to compete for a job next year. He was a one year deal right?

 

yeah only a 1 year deal glenn

 

I hope not.

 

TTF I do think Plax is Thankful that we (Rooney's) gave him a chance to be back. I HOPE he plays for cheap next year and we win the Superbowl and Plax makes a TD Grab then retires.

 

I think someone is going to over pay for sanders to tell the truth

 

Seconded. The motion is passed. Let's move on.

 

According to Burress he will be back next year. He answered it as if he already knew he would be back.

 

No.

 

I see it like this:

Competition is needed. Plax's experience will help provide that, but his inability to play special teams hurts him.

Now that being said, I see things this way:

1. Cotchery is back
2. Sanders is gone
3. Moye and J. Brown are back
4. Plaxico is back
5. 1 WR draft pick
6. 2 or 3 UDFAs are brought in.
7. Wheaton and A. Brown are givens

A. Brown, Cotchery, and Wheaton are givens to make team. If the draft pick is top 2 rounds, he makes the team as well. So, J. Brown, Moye, Plaxico, 2-3 UDFAs, and a draft pick are all given shots at making the team from the 1 or 2 spots we have open.

Plaxico brings experience and you hope the ability to teach guys like J. Brown and Moye (maybe also a draft pick) lessons about the league.

 

would it hurt to give the man a shot

 

Very good, very good.

He seems to think he is

 

Plaxico made his rounds on the sports talk shows and said he's not retiring yet
