Seriously. If a plea deal gets him two years, you have to wonder what he was facing without it.

Prior articles made it sound like Burress was desperately afraid to serve any jail time at all.

As an aside, in past times when he was available (and evn this offseason) people had been wanting us to pursue Plaxico. Stuff like this is why you don't pin your hopes on guys with character issues.

I read if he had been convicted on all charges he faced 3 1/2 to 15 years.

for sure. but shooting your leg should not carry the same penalty as killing someone while drunk driving

There's other factors. Stallworth cooperated fully with authorities from the beginning. Burress? Not so much.

Also, the family of the victim in Stallworth's case reportedly was satisfied that Stallworth was contrite. Whether that feeling was sincere or financial no one can say, but that's how it came down.

I guess Burress could forgive himself - and probably has - but that doesn't take the weapons charges away :sosp:

Plus there was mitigating circumstances in Stallworth's case... and he paid the family of the guy he killed too.

I personally think that 2 years is very stiff for what Plax did, but the law's the law and he shoulda took that plea deal way back... idiot.

On a side note...

One of my buds at lunch said he hopes Farve's not watching ESPN today... he might retire again... :lol:

      He has allowed 1 sack this season. His issue is penalties more than anything else. He is averaging 1 penalty per game. In general, we should have zero complaints about this OL unit. Especially considering we have been a bottom 16 unit for about 8 years now.

      Brooks has a full practice Wed

      If he was a vet or had 3 years of full playing time in college, it would be different, I'd lean more on the side of caution.  But this is someone who now over the last 4 years, has really only played in games for one of them as he had 51 combined carries his first two years in college. If he wants to reach his potential, he needs reps and he needs them this year, he can't miss another year without meaningful game snaps. The knee is structurally sound at this point being a year out from injury and today's tech/rehab capabilities.  Sure his lack of game shape could lead to pulled muscles or something, but it's not going to put him at risk of a more serious injury to give him 10-15 carries right out of the gate. Also, we need see what he's got, to know if he's going to be able to handle a 3 down role next year before the offseason.  Because if he can, then we shouldn't be re-signing Hubbard as he's earned a decent contract from someone next year.   We can't give that out to a guy who will end up being a backup to someone on a rookie deal, it's a place we can save money to spend elsewhere for a few years, as we could get a much cheaper backup option in free agency or even draft someone else in like the 5th round to be his backup and really save money at the position.
