NFL Opinion: Buy or Sell: Burress release is relevant because of the lockout?

I think it is. Only reason he's being paid any attention is because of the lack of other NFL news due to the lockout. Any other normal NFL year he'd have been paid as much attention as Pacman Jones or some other scrub. I actually think he's overrated. He's only had two double digit TD seasons and never had 100 reception seasons for such a proclaimed red zone threath and possession receiver. So I really doubt he has anything to offer to any team considering him, especially since his skills were already diminishing before jail, so I doubt he has anything to offer at 34 and a bad leg with gunshot scar/wound. He'll disappoint whatever team gives him the contract he wants which will be substantial. All this speculation of him to the Eagles is completely dumbfounded. Eagles have a problem paying players in their 30s and he's 34. Plus WR is their deepest position on the team so he wouldn't fit. I think he won't be much of a factor. Everyone just wants the next redemption story and has nothing to do in this unusual NFL issues.
