visajets Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 The fact that its only a 1 yr deal makes me think this was a patch job to sign a WR out of the few left on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barcs Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 One thing that hasn't really come up yet. How are the Giants fans feeling about this? I wonder if they wanted him back, or if they basically said screw him, or if it's divided down the middle. I think I'll take a peek on giantsnation.com or whatever the hell it is. Also, Sanchez had an issue last year with throwing high. This could solve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could solve it! the Eagles have what ESPN is calling the best defensive secondary in the history of history......I'm sure the Giants would love to have Plaxico for additional help even though they already are loaded at WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 for sure. i've seen Plax in person and dude should be in the NBA lol That's funny because I've seen him in person and I thought he looked like a skinny little punk and not particularly tall and I am only 5'9". He was kind of slouchy though and to his credit soft spoken and calm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 LOL You mean stoned. Almost certainly. Probably armed too. I was denying him entrance and he didn't give me any lip or attitude. Well.... actually looked like he had plenty of attitude, but it didn't change and he didn't give me any lip. Of course I was very respectful to him too.

JetsFanInDenver Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 NickSpano Nick Spano by ukjets #Giants offered Plax: 1-year $4 mil, 500G for being active every game, $2.5 mil in performance bonuses. Yikes. He hates Coughlin huh? Just awful!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoicsentry Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 So what are everyone's feelings on this move? As I said before, think you have to factor in the price @ 3M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 It's worth the risk. If Braylon walked, it was likely that either Randy Moss or Plaxico Burress would end up a Jet. Moss would likely be more expensive, and I would rather take a chance on the unknown. I watched Randy Moss play last season. I already know that he sucks at football. I can't say that with Plaxico Burress. At the very least, he'll be able to catch jumpballs and won't be alligator arming the **** out of everything thrown in traffic. $3 million ain't sh*t. This is a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serphnx Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 That's funny because I've seen him in person and I thought he looked like a skinny little punk and not particularly tall and I am only 5'9". He was kind of slouchy though and to his credit soft spoken and calm. I think it can be hard to judge height. Shawn Merriman is listed at 6'5 I think but he never looked that big to me. People I think tend to misjudge height to a sort of average, generally if people are tall but not giants they think they're shorter, and if they're short but not midgets they appear taller to them. Shaq of course is going to be huge, but a Burress or a Merriman may not be to most people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiFtheOracle Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Hopefully Plax will tear his hamstring in preseason from being so out of shape and never catch a pass for the jets. What? Why the **** would you hope for that? Why wouldnt you hope for him to be the best WR in Football? If Mike Williams can comeback from being a 300 pound fat man out of the league for 4 seasons and have a great year in Seattle...Plexico should be fine.

Because I've never liked the guy, plain and simple. I didn't want him either. And because we downgraded at wr and you know it. What a joke, give up Braylon for this over the hill turd. I also know he wont be the best wr in the league, so I dont hope for miracles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can assume that he's over the hill (So do I) but you don't know that he is until you see it. Last time he was playing in this league he was a damn good WR, one of the very best. I'm not a huge fan of him personally, but while you're wishing for injuries, I'll be rooting for TD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Because I've never liked the guy, plain and simple. I didn't want him either. And because we downgraded at wr and you know it. What a joke, give up Braylon for this over the hill turd. I also know he wont be the best wr in the league, so I dont hope for miracles. I just don't hate this move, despite the fact that I think Plaxico is an idiot and a malcontent. Fact is that he just got out of jail, and he's got a one year contract hoping for more, so I'm thinking he's not going to be too much of either this year. Even if he was going to have difficulty escaping his true nature, I think Rex is the right coach for him - and he seems to think so, too. On the jints, it was probably quietly popular to be disrespectful to Coughlin. That's not the case here. He won't have anyone backing him up if/when he's being a dick to Rex. I think he'll show up on time to meetings with the Jets. He'll go with the flow, not against it. Failure to get along with Rex would be a major red flag for any other team looking to sign him in 2012. He's gonna be a good boy here. I also think he should be in excellent shape. What else has he had to do the last two years besides work out and dream about getting back into the NFL? He didn't get any shorter in there. He's got six weeks before the opener to get back into football shape. Then he has months of regular season games to hone his skills and help the team's playoff push. I think he's an asset who's going to demand attention on the other side of Holmes. Maybe score some TD's. That's all he really needs to be.

SenorGato Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Plax for CBPOY. So what's the depth chart on pass catchers now? I'm still in baseball season. I'm thinking: Holmes Cotchery Keller Burress McKnight 2010 Kerley Possibly Connor McKnight 2011 Maybe another TE talent? A Zach Miller/Kevin boss or maybe someone cheaper like Leonard Pope.
