Jets receivers consider they are good enough without Burress

Most of people's comments on Jets receivers are negative. They think that the Jets need Plaxico Burress to change the presence of the team.

However, the Jets receivers think different. "We don't take it personal," Jets WR Jerricho Cotchery said during minicamp this week. "It's just something that adds to whatever you're doing, your work ethic or whatever. It's extra juice."

"I don't care anything about that at all, not even a little bit," Clowney said. "At the end of the day, that's all talk. Everybody wants to sit there and speculate. At the same time, they only watch TV and watch the games. They don't see what guys are actually doing in practice."

"Yeah, we would love to have him because he adds to what we already have," wide receivers coach Henry Ellard said, "But if it came down to it, I think we'll be fine with what we already have. We're a little short on experience, but that's going to come with time."

At the moment, the Jets have rookie Mark Sanchez and veteran Kellen Clemens competing for the starting quarterback job, and quarterback-turned-receiver Brad Smith, sure-handed Chansi Stuckey, speedy David Clowney and athletic Wallace Wright.
