Wow i like this move.
And who's going to throw to him........
Desperate, humble WR on his last lifeline in the league. He may not be the same player, but I expect all he's got effortwise.
LOL. This thread could get ugly.
If we get him for vet min he may be worth a second "shot"

right now looks like old charlie
They better worry about a Qb that can make a throw without one hopping it...just tells me brown is out a while as well and possibly cotchery
Oh man...this should be a fun week...
We need QB help a whole lot more...Need WR help
You have got to be kidding me! Is it April 1?
What WR help do we need? Did someone get hurt last night? Is Cotchery out?
How about a QB that has a little more resilience than glass?
I wanted him instead of cotchery to begin with so i will be very happy if they sign him.
maybe Wallace is being sent a message from above , and I do not mean God I mean Mr. Rooney ........
naa its in all likelihood to do with Cotchery but could not help the opening to down Mr. I want Fitz money Wallace who IMO has his priorities wrong and is more concerned about what he can't control than what he can control and that is producing at crucial times on the field and putting forth 110% from the effort department
Steelers make right move to bring in Burress
There's depth concerns for the Pittsburgh Steelers beyond the quarterback position. With Antonio Brown and Jerricho Cotchery injured, the Steelers are eyeing a reunion with Plaxico Burress to help out at wide receiver.
Burress, 35, who played for the Steelers from from 2000 to 2004, is expected to go to Pittsburgh to take a physical for the Steelers. This is the right move by the Steelers, and I'm surprised that Burress is still available.
If nothing else, he will be a big target in the red zone. The 6-foot-5 Burress caught eight touchdowns last season. The knock on Burress is he doesn't get separation anymore. Still, he had 45 catches last season from Mark Sanchez, so that tells me he can be productive with most quarterbacks.
There was talk that the Steelers were interested in signing Burress in training camp when Mike Wallace was a holdout. But Burress reportedly wanted too much money. Now, over halfway through the season, Burress needs a job and the Steelers need a productive receiver. It makes sense for the Steelers to sign Burress if he passes the physical.

See you Space Cowboy ...
Oh great, even Cotchery is injured.
Fire the conditioning coach and let's get some help in here. Either that or bring back Alan Alda and the rest of the MASH crew.

I mean the line has stabilized this year and we haven't had an injury for a few weeks, and now it seems the rest of the team is injured.
Can't catch a break, well, you know what I mean.
I need to go check my (keepsake box) and see if my plex jersey is still in there. LOL Jamie McCoy (practice squad) he has #80 i believe
Better than Limas Wallace
Did not expect this one...
