Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The 30 year old Burress has been jailed since 2009 for a weapons conviction stemming from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a New York City nightclub in November 2008. As previously noted, the Eagles are believed to have a serious interest in Burress. The Jets, Steelers, Chargers, Falcons and Ravens have also been mentioned as possible suitors. His interest to Fantasy Football owners will depend greatly on his destination and likely role. But it does appear he'll get a legitimate shot.
