Big head, no brains. Would he be acting out like this if the Giants didn’t win the SuperBowl?" The reason Burress is not a top ten receiver is because Amani Toomer gets a lot throws too, as well as Steve Smith and the TEs. But Burress is 4th in TD receptions, despite playing against the double team and ankle and knee injury. Imagine the year he would have had if he weren't injured! onanygivensunday says:

His trade price would be too high and he would be signed within hours of a release most likely by a division foe (each one could use him). Plax isn’t going anywhere.

I think if he keeps up the b.s. and Steve Smith (not that steve smith) shows that he has what it takes to be the #1 guy Burress will be shown the door also." BS? Ocho Stinko was spewing BS. Plax has expressed that he more cash, and has been pretty civil about it considering (his agent). GarrardMVP09 says:

Its ok for the press to bad mouth the NJ Giants every now and then. Maybe we can switch blame from the players to the team. Its ok for the press to bad mouth the NJ Giants every now and then.

He might even get the team to rework his contract even though he has 3 years left on the original deal. While I'm excited about Steve Smith, he's the heir apparent to Amani Toomer, who will likely retire in a year or two. Plaxico is a game-breaker, by far the Giants best (and most feared) weapon. We can't afford to get rid of him. Finally, the Saints probably would have pulled the trigger on the Shockey deal even if they knew about his latest tantrum. Do you think Sean Payton (or anyone that followed the NFL) is unaware of Shockey's attitude at this point? They know actually what they're getting. They think he'll be able with his new coach and the city of New Orleans. Plax is not going anywhere.
