Plaxico Burress was released from the Oneida Correctional Facility Monday morning.
Burress had been in prison since Sept. 22, 2009. He was greeted by agent Drew Rosenhaus, was wearing a throwback Phillies hat and gave a brief statement to the media before heading to a reunion with his family. Rosenhaus said Burress will fly to Florida and start training immediately as he tries to find a taker for his services. Burress will be 34 in August and hasn't played football since 2008, but the Eagles, Rams and Jets have been mentioned as possible landing spots. We're skeptical about Plax's potential impact.
Where do you see him ending up?

Rams. They need a wide receiver for Bradford to throw to, and with his size, I think he could still be pretty decent.

They drafted 2 new WRs plus they're getting Donnie Avery back from Injury.

With Burress they're actually overcrowded.

You can't say any of those guys are better than Plax, pre-jail. I'm not sure how he is now, but if he can play the way he did, there's no doubt he's better than anybody they have.

The tricky thing is nobody knows how good he is now.

With signing Burress means you have to let go of 2 young WRs in his place.

I'd rather keep Gilyard, Danario Alexander, Donnie Avery, over Burress.

Honestly, I don't have the first clue.

And honestly, that's the thing. I think once everything hits the fan, and teams can interact with players, they should bring him and Bradford in, and see how well they communicate, and how well Plax can play.

But yeah, I'd have to agree with the last part if he isn't as good as pre-jail time.

Right now, I just don't see a real candidate to sign Burress.
