    Not only that but Burress can't hold Marshalls wr gloves, jock straps or 18 catch game

    Maybe if his girlfriend has her head on his lap?

    He did hold a Lombardi after making the winning catch, something Marshall at this point can only dream about. Regular season 18 catch games are nice, but big plays in big games mean more.

    Agreed but I don't think its a question whether BM could of replaced Burress and than some. Dexter Jackson and Deon Branch have been SB MVP's, does that make them elite?

    I remember Burress beating Green Bay almost singlehandedly, and two weeks later he did catch the winning td, didn't he?

    Counts for something...

    Right now if it were an either or choice, I would rather take the game winning, SB MVP wideout than the elite one.

    Jus sayin...

    Ftr I do not concede that Burress was not elite.

    Definitely counts for something I'm not knocking Burress. I think he was one of the 12-15 true #1 WR in the NFL and wanted us to sign him as a stop gap prior to his sentence due to the fact we could of signed him outright without any compensation. I just think BM is a better football player

    Draft picks<proven player...WTF
    End of week? Lets talk about before the season even began or before that when we even had any some sort of chance with Keshan Johnson. I know even that senerio didn't turn out right so is it safe to say, the last true great WR we had was almost 20+( + or - )years ago? Is that a fair estimate or close to it?

    If some other team gets Brandon Marshall you will hear my scream from California to New York. Can I get some sort of compt at work being unable to talk and all? I will carry a whole lot of paper and crayons to express my views. Powerpoint presentation on!
