Eagles May Opt For WR Plaxico Burress Over WR DeSeanJackson

Adam Caplan of TheSidelineView.com sees some changes coming this offseason in the Philadelphia Eagles' receiving corps, while he believes the team will put the franchise tag on DeSean Jackson later this month, Caplan as well as NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora believes the Eagles will shop Jackson around the league. Caplan also predicts the Eagles will pursue free agent wide receiver Plaxico Burress, it was no secret last year that Burress wanted to play for the Eagles as he left prison wearing a Philadelphia ball cap. The Jets won a bidding war, giving Plax over $3 million guaranteed, Caplan believes Burress could upgrade the team's red-zone offense, and points out that in-house supposed red-zone target Riley Cooper "doesn't fight for the football" enough to excel in that role. The Eagles likely would not be signing Plax as a starter, he'd be a third receiver and inside-the-20s guy.

If they really want to move him I wouldn't be surprised if Cleveland was one of the first teams in line.

Lol.

I was begging for us to get Plax instead of Smith last year. I am fuckin' DOWN with signing Burress to a 1 or 2 year deal.

i can see the logic here. plax will demand much less money and give them the type of big target they currently don't have.

yeah i'd like vincent jackson but no doubt plax will demand less money that could be spent elsewhere. plus you know he'd have a chip on his shoulder towards the giants.
