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?

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.

Cincy is too crowded with #85, Owens, Bryant, Coles...

Maybe Dallas if Dez continues to get hurt?

He's once again a NY Jet.

Monkeydad · 08-05-2010, 09:46 AM

Didn't hear that...not like it was a major headline at this point in his career.

KLHJ2 · 08-06-2010, 08:08 AM

Yeah, apparently shooting yourself in the leg is not conduct detrimental to the NFL but only to yourself.

MTK · 08-06-2010, 10:50 AM

Right now that's just Thomas. Talking on production from last year though.

SBXVII · 11-29-2010, 12:23 AM

When is he even eligible to play again? Rather when does he get out of jail?

Next year

I'd bring him in, especially because I'd rather use our limited draft picks on more o-line or a better position of need. We can bring in skill position players through free agency, like a cheap running back or a decent wideout.

Guy plays lights out football, we would be fools to pass him up.

Giantone · 11-29-2010, 07:10 AM

LOL...he's not going to Washington.
