Do we possibly want him?

[davos]

For that age range, I'd rather have Cotchery

[Jangler]

I really wanted to do a pizza joke....but then I thought it might be too cheesy.

[Ruff]

I'll pass on Burleson. However, they also release Louis Delmas... Now that's a safety I wouldn't mind having if we can't bring back Mitchell. Or, we could bring him in a Strong Safety and let Mitchell play Free (or vice versa).

I'd be open to him if we can't keep Mitchell, but I think we really really need to keep Mitchell. He was huge for us this year, especially in motivation.

no. if you struggle to get open with megatron on the other side, you should retire.

He's no worse than Lafell at getting open, and his hands are very reliable, something Lafell doesn't have.

[Dilla]

Isn't he like 48 years old?

[stirs]

No to both

[El Chingon]

Nahh

well that is no real endorsement. he is on the wrong side of 30, and couldnt stay healthy. i think the panthers could find s better guy then Nate.

 

[PantherFanOne]

Nate Burleson is to old for us in my opinion,so I say no to obtaining him. I realize Nate has very good hands but I question his present ability to get open.

[TheRed]

No more aging receivers. Get Cam someone close to his age to grow with.

[Evengelion]

do not want
