The Jets have signed Plaxico Burress to a one year fully guaranteed contract. This move pretty much solidifies the receiving corps and we've certainly seen the last of Braylon Edwards. I'm not sure how to feel about this move, one on hand Plax is a big time receiver with big play ability, on the other hand he's been in the joint for two years so what's to say he knows how to still play, I mean that's a lot of money to give a guy who we haven't seen outside of his jumpsuit since '08. But then again, with Holmes, Plax, and J-Co, this is an above average unit. But one thing that goes unnoticed here is Braylon was a spectacular blocker on the outside, probably second best in the league behind Hines Ward, this can't be under-played, Plax better be ready to be physical when the Jets run the rock 60% of the time. But if he does for the Jets what he did for the Giants in '07, I think I can live with it. Hey did you hear about the new Plaxico Burress cocktail? It's just one very expensive shot! Badadaoomche.
P.S. Jets are close to re-signing Cromartie, I'm sure they'll pay through the nose because they put themselves in a helluva bad bargaining position after whiffing on Asomugha.
