    CHRIS CHAMBERS AVAILABLE!!! and other WRs.

    POSTED 8:32 p.m. EDT, August 28, 2007

    PASS-CATCHERS AVAILABLE FOR PEANUTS

    Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that a trio of Florida receivers are available to any interested takers.

    Specifically Reggie Williams of the Jaguars, Michael Clayton of the Bucs, and Chris Chambers of the Dolphins are on the block.

    But Schefter says that no serious talks have occurred regarding any of the three, which means that all three of them are in danger of being released on or before Saturday. Chambers, a second-round pick in 2001, has been the best of the three. Clayton and Williams were first-round picks in 2004. Williams was the No. 9 overall pick; Clayton was No. 15.

    Many of you want to see Chris Chambers in a Packers' uniform, well, here is your chance. I strongly believe that TT should go after him and a vet. RB. Then, maybe our offense will have some punch. But we all know how this story is going to end. TT will sit on his hands and wait, and wait, and wait for the young guys to develop. Listen, I like James Jones too (and Greg Jennings) but with DD not being 100% and JJ being a rookie, Chambers would improve our receiving corp and give us a deep threat.

    If he's released - DEFINITELY. If they want to trade him for a draft choice, not so much given the players we already have at WR. Then again if they needed a kicker (which they evidently don't) - Rayner would Chambers would be sweet.
    60% of the time it works every time.

      I would want to know 2 things. First, what is wrong with Chambers that Miami doesn't want him? Second, what are they asking for him?
      I can't run no more
      With that lawless crowd
      While the killers in high places
      Say their prayers out loud
      But they've summoned, they've summoned up
      A thundercloud
      They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

        If he is cut, yes, bring him in. Anyone know why the Fins are willing to get rid of him? They don't have much receiving talent, just look at their starting TE.

          God knows we have the cap room to absorb a salary like Chambers. Honestly, this would be rough.

          What if TT had the stones to go get Chambers ???

          My Badger love and my Stoneless Turtle Mojo would certainly clash like Satan on one shoulder and an angel on the other.

          Would I begin to like the Snapper ?

          Ah, regardless, it'll never happen.
          TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

            God, it is sooooooooo depressing to know that ANY TIME a player that isnt a rookie free agent gets cut or is available via trade, Ted Thompson WILL NOT get involved. He is always saying that he is looking to improve the roster but I can't believe that he really believes that. It would be exciting to have a GM that actually got involved in aquiring players outside of the draft. I am very depressed about the Pack right now.

            How can TT believe that:

            1. We have ANYTHING special at RB? How has he not improved this position?

            2. Our offense scares anyone? Adding a guy like Chris Chambers would not only add some juice to our O but how happy would it make Favre? He wanted some vet. help.

            BUT IN THE END, TT will do nothing. Very depressing!

              I would be more excited if these were TE's or RB's on the block, WR is in a lot better shape then those positions.

                Umm, GBPackFan, Vernand Morency was neither a rookie free agent, nor was he cut, and he was available via trade. You may not think much of that deal, but if you're going to capitalize ANY TIME, you might want to be sure.

                  Go ahead a nit-pick my statement if it makes you feel better. The fact remains that TT has done a HORRIBLE job improving our RB position. One could argue that we have taken a giant step back. But your right, TT did trade for an injury prone RB. NICE JOB!

                    CC, eh? That's a surprise. He was certainly their #1 or #2 last year. I wonder what's going on with that.

                    I can't believe Clayton and Williams are on their way out...that draft class was heavy with WR's at the top, and with 4 taken in the first 15 picks. Half of those can pretty much be classified as busts. Wow.

                    Clayton has shown flashes. I certainly wouldn't mind if the Pack had a look at him.

                      All I'm saying is that if you're going to capitalize those words, then you might want to check that they are factual. If you call paying attention to the truth "nit-picking," then I'm not sure what to say. I like a variety of opinions, and I enjoy reading those opinions. But I just don't care for blanket statements presented as fact if those statements are not fact. You can't have an intelligent discussion that way.

                      As for your general opinion that TT has done a lousy job in the running back department, well, you may well be right. I think it's a little early to say, but it doesn't look too promising at the moment. I'm just thinking that the running game might not be really good, but could be just good enough.

                        If you're trying to sign one of these guys, I'm not sure what you tell him. "Well, we wouldn't put you ahead of Driver, and we really like our two young guys to contribute this year. Would you like to take the place of Ruvell Martin?"

                        A team that can promise a legitimate shot at the #1 receiver spot, like the Vikings did with Ferguson, has a much better chance of picking up one of these guys than we do.

                        Then again, if the Driver injury is serious, we could offer a legitimate shot at #1...

                          Did the Vikes really promise Fergy a shot at the #1 spot? Dang, that's whacked. Poor Rastak. Fergy a #1 receiver? Man, maybe Carlton Brewster ought to head west. He could be their #2.

                            That was, as I understand it, the reason he chose Mn ahead of Houston. I mean, to be the #1 receiver in Minny he just needs to outproduce Bobby Wade and hope Troy Williamson isn't 300% better than he was last year.

                              I have mixed emotions about that, yea it would be great to have CC to have that security blanket. if for some God forsaken reason Driver gets injured (and I pray everynight he doesn`t). But I think JJ and Jennings have a tremendous upside with holliday and Martin backing them I like the recieving core we got they just need more time. But on the other hand Chambers would be a nice fit. Plus remember there`s still a chance K-Rob could come back. are we gonna have 6 or 7 recievers?? or would TT have to let go Martin or Holliday??
