OXNARD, Calif. -- The Dallas Cowboys have held preliminary discussions with Drew Rosenhaus, the agent for Plaxico Burress, about signing the free-agent wide receiver, according to a source.
The Cowboys have young and inexperienced receivers fighting for the No. 3 position on the team, and are thinking of adding a veteran if no one emerges.

On Thursday afternoon, team executive vice president Stephen Jones told KTBB-FM in Tyler, Texas, that the team "wouldn't totally rule out Plaxico at some point."
Last season the Cowboys signed veteran Laurent Robinson as their No. 3 receiver, and he led the team with 11 touchdowns. In the offseason, Robinson signed a five-year, $32.5 million deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
With starter Miles Austin (hamstring) out, Kevin Ogletree moved up the Cowboys' depth chart and is getting first-team snaps with Dez Bryant.
Andre Holmes, Dwayne Harris, Tim Benford and Cole Beasley have been the standouts in training camp so far for Dallas' No. 3 receiver spot.

Beasley worked out of the slot with the first-team offense during Thursday's walk-through.
In a 10-year career, Burress has played for three NFL teams, with 550 catches for 8,457 yards and 63 touchdowns.
In September 2009, Burress was sentenced to two years in prison for violating gun laws in New York after he shot himself in the leg while at a nightclub. He agreed to a plea deal and pleaded guilty to a lesser firarms charge.
Burress was released three months early for good behavior and then signed with the New York Jets last season. He tied for the team lead with eight touchdown receptions and finished with 612 yards and 45 receptions.

I actually would like the move. Surprised he doesn’t have a team yet. He was always a Cowboy killer.

Wait, what? I thought the talk about him was nothing but idle talk-radio nonsense because he's a big name. I can't believe we even talked to Rosenhaus about him. :WTF

Babe said no way tonight on burress.
I imagine he asked one if the garrett's.
So forget that, it's too bad the local espn morons will do nothing but talk about this for weeks keeping it alive as a relevant story.
I imagine rosenhaus is looking to get a an offer by using the cowboys as bait. All he has to do is tell one of the local espn idiots he talked to the cowboys and it is national news.
Why would anyone ever want this guy on the team? He is the wrong everything, age, character, personality, mouth....everything..he has zero positives.
And he couldn't get signed before Owens, edwards and Antonio Bryant.
