Wow did see this coming. Wounder is TT would be interested in him.

Well, he was only marginally better than Robert Ferguson who was taken before him, Miami was happy to get rid of him for Ted Ginn, and I'd take Jennings, Driver, Jones, Nelson, and even Terrance Murphy before him. Yeah, I know Terrance Murphy can't play football anymore, but I liked him.

I don't think Ferguson's best season even compares to Chambers worst season while the two were in the league together. Chambers was the far better receiver and football player.

Are we counting Chambers' current season?

[Smidgeon]

Also, I meant "marginally" in terms of the same tier of receivers. Yeah, Chambers was clearly better, but he wasn't anywhere near the top of the league. Ferguson wasn't dregs either. He just was a walking injury.

Chambers had about the worst hands of any starter in the league. There was a big gulf between his production and his hype. That was one of the reasons the Dolphins traded him.

I think what I was trying to say was that if GB had selected Chambers over Ferguson in the draft that year, just like Ferguson, Chambers probably wouldn't still be with the team. So it's a wash in my opinion.

For a second I thought you were talking about Braylon Edwards.

Chambers has always been a solid WR. Nothing spectacular, but pretty good. No reason for us to go after him. He'll want to me at least #3 on someones roster and were offering 4 at Best.

It's sad to watch a players career end. Chambers can't do it anymore... It is over.

Or Tedd Ginn?

Or Brandon Marshall. led the league in drops for a long while.

Dude, you are so out to lunch on this call, that i'm seriously reevaluating the rest of your sane posts.

Chambers worst season was a fergie big year. what he is now is what he is now. But, to say a former pro bowl player and a guy who was routinely averaging 60 catches for 7 straight years is only marginally better than fergie is straight out FICTION.

Agreed...comparing Chambers to Ferguson is like comparing Jessica Simpson to Rosie O'Donnell. You just can't do it. Back in the day (and now) Chambers with the swine flu could outplay Fergie.

Worth a tryout. The Packers resigned Green -- why not CC?

Finley and Nelson will be back in a week, don't see it happening.
