Re: Giants release Burress

The New York Post reports that Plaxico Burress is expected to be released from prison within "two or three weeks" for good behavior.
The Post cites a "person who has visited Burress at the Oneida Correctional Facility in Rome," so we'd take the report with a grain of salt. He's expected to join a work release program upon leaving prison. Though it remains unclear when Plax will be permitted to return to the NFL, Giants GM Jerry Reese said his club will "definitely investigate" a potential re-signing. Don't hold your breath on a quick signing, though. The Giants already have a deep receiving corps, and Plax doesn't play special teams. We still consider him a longshot to play in 2010.

Nicks = Injured
Hixon = Injured
Manningham = Injured


If the season started today, they'd be playing with Steve Smith (wrong one), Sinorice Moss (wrong Moss), Tim Brown (definitely wrong one), Derek Hagan, Duke Calhoun, Ramses Barden and Victor Cruz.

Who?

Re: Giants release Burress

From BBI............

"
Whew! Nicks OK: WR Hakeem Nicks was sent to New York yesterday to undergo a second MRI and exam on his injured right knee. After both, the Giants issued the following statement:
“Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks hyperextended his right knee at the end of yesterday afternoon’s practice. Nicks underwent an MRI in Albany last night and another at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in Manhattan this morning. He was examined by team physician Dr. Russell Warren at HSS. The tests and exam showed nothing out of the ordinary with Nicks’ knee. Nicks, who is currently practicing once a day as he comes back from offseason toe surgery, could possibly return to the practice field as early as (Thursday).”
Giants Not Interested in Plax: According to The Star-Ledger, an unidentified team official told the paper that the Giants are not currently interested in re-signing WR Plaxico Burress when he is released from prison."

Just a quick note. Burress won't be suspended when he comes back.

Our WRs must be really terrible then, because the Giants have some nice young WRs who have already completely outshined our guys.

Manningham last year had 57-822-5, and Nicks had 47-790-6.

Don't tell me you wouldn't take that in a heartbeat over our crew.

Puhlease. Even numbers are soooo overrated. Who wants to divide by two anyway.

They're all hurt now. So yes, I'll take our guys who can actually get on the field.

Good for Plax. I hope he gets out and learned his lesson. Now the Giants do not have a deep wr corps. They've got some guys that they've invested high draft picks...Manningham and Nicks but neither has done anything. Also what has Sinorace Moss done in the 4 years he's been there? Nothing. I guess their most productive guy is Smith, good wr but not a true #1. If I were NY I would look into this and see if he's got anything in the tank.
