He is Terrible now. Sorry I was a big Chambers fan but he has lost it and is definitely no upgrade to what we have. On the year he has 9 catches for 122yds and a TD. This is on an offense with Rivers, Tomlinson, Sproles, Gates, and Jackson. If he can't be productive in that offense do you really expect him to shine on ours? He just isn't what he used to be.

Pass

I'd take him back.

Chances of him clearing waivers are slim, but I still think we will put in a claim.

I say bring him in, and let him take some heat off the others.

Sure, i would take my chance.
But I don't run the team, and personally, i dont think our FO would bring him back. Plus, i doubt he will make it to us thought waiver wire.

You do remember who is calling the offense there right? Last time I checked none of the guys mentioned above are having great years either. Adrian Peterson would look like a scrub if Norv turner had his hands on him.

With that said his best years are probably behind him not saying they were that great but even keyshawn Johnson could start in this corp

I take him back in a heartbeat.

A big red zone threat is EXACTLY what this team needs. He's not the best, but he'll come free and hopefully at a pretty cheap price after renegotiating

I'm a huge Chambers homer too. I would take him back in a second! He may not be the most sure handed, but the big play circus catches would be awesome

Is there any rule or way for the NFL to prevent against doing this as a trade this late in the year a la MLB?

You waive the guy, and then only let a certain team pick up the contract, blocking anyone else by taking him back? Then once he's at the team you have a deal with, they send you a pick for nothing, or maybe a crap player that was going to be cut anyway?

Look at his stats on the year and look at his surrounding cast. If he can't be productive in San Diego no way he outplays anyone in Miami

He'd be a pretty good decoy to open up the field for the other receivers and backs...and maybe he would be energized to come back to the franchise he loves.

He should Have not never Been Traded anyway.. It was Camerons idiotic decision that ruined us he was the best player on our team. Compared to what we have i would take Him Back any day of the week I love BP but he is a moron when its comes to the WR position and will probably not even look at him.

Props to GISH for the Awesome Sig thanks bro:up:

Any team that takes him is on the hook for the rest of his contract. Teams have til 4pm today to claim him.

Ted Ginn makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X.

Let's face it, we abosultely RAPED San Diego for a 2nd Round Pick for Chambers.

I always like him, and wouldn't mind seeing him back in a Phins uni.

I gotta go with Pagan on this one. I would like it if he came in. Maybe no one grabs him, heck Marvin Harrison is still out of a job.

Either way, we made out good on that trade.

Too many people don't understand the game of football outside of fantasy stats. The fact is that he's a good, not great WR and we could use a guy like him on our team right now.

Whatever anybody says about the guy, he's still better than Ted Ginn.

Are you kidding Vincent Jackson has 37 664 and 5 tds on the year. He already has 4 100+ yard games on the year

Sproles has double the catches of Chambers and more than double recieving yards. And this is a Rb. Not to mention is rushing yards.

Oh and Rivers- Over 2,000 yards and 11 tds

Bottom Line chambers is on a talented team and has done nothing. At all. He is washed up. Believe me I used to love watching him play in Miami but to say he looks bad because of Norv? Its just not the case this time.
