New York Giants: Eli Manning Compares Brandon Marshall To Plaxico Burress

Ramses Barden. Lol.

Barden, once a third-round pick of the New York Giants, was supposed to be the next Plaxico Burress.

Because of his 6-6 frame, the former prospect from California Polytechnic State University had all the potential to be the red zone target New York needed to complement the slot receiving Steve Smith.

It never quite worked out for Barden over four seasons with the team, as he never even caught a single touchdown.

But, according to Eli Manning, the Giants may have finally found their Burress replacement in Brandon Marshall, even if it took them eight seasons to do so.
