I think he probably should, but don't really care either say. Seau's a legend in the NFL, and Burgess is... Burgess.

Someone's been wearing 55 ?

I guess the invisible man was weating 43 today - WTF is that for a DL/LB ?

I say it would be a nice gesture but first come first served, we'll see.Maybe a Rolex can settle it.

He already gave it to Seau.

Hopefully most understand this was a jest thread

The way Burgess has played the lead role in 'The Invisible Man' I would say he probably doesn't deserve ANY number on this team,He sucks - Davis got us there.

Actually, when the 55 saw Seau, it jumped off Burgess' uniform and flew over to Seau's.

Boston.com is reporting that Burgess is wearing #53 now...maybe he'll start playing like chris slade of '93-'97

Friggin Burgess... he gonna amount to anything ?

I see him on the field, just not making plays.

Sure we got one over on Al Davis in the Randy Moss deal but he got us back in the Doug Gabriel fiasco and what appears to be a worthless Derrick Burgess trade...Still TBD on Seymour

 

[Kontradiction]

Burgess should not only give back his number, he should give us back everything we've paid him. Definitely the Pats version of Hollow Man.

Old SENIAL Uncle Al made Billy look mentally challenged on that one......guy is a waste of a roster spot.

Took Bill's Lunch Money

 

[HEY BRO! WHAT UP?]

Trading a 3rd round pick for this guy was absolutely stupid! I liked the addition of Burgess but not for a 3rd round pick. This trade will look even worse when he is let go next season.

Calling the loss of a fifth round pick a fiasco a bit over the top, I would think.

It didn't work out, but to expect all trades/FA acquisitions to work out is unrealistic. Yoku make a lot of deals. Some work, some don't. If your deals result in more wins that the other guys' deals, you did well.

How's Seymour doing for the Raiders so far?

I'm not sure that Seau won't give Burgess a run for his money for that title. The man is how old now?

True. He's 40 years old. But they guy is at least stout against the run. He's definitely not coming into to be a full time starter as his body can't handle that. The one intangible he brings into the locker room is clearly underrated: leadership.
