Chris Chambers As a #2?

Absolutely. However the cap room is likely not there and I doubt Fox would add another playmaker to the team at this stage of the season with Moose potentially coming back next week. He would instantly be the 2nd best option at wideout for the team if we did pick him up though.

Also, blackpanther hit the nail on the head. Until we can get a QB he wouldn't be much help to us anyway.

No. He's 31 years old and he's played horrifically bad this season. Looks like his best years are behind him.

Obvious FA choices are Brandon Marshall or Vincent Jackson but both seem unlikely to hit the open market and even if they do the price tag would be huge.

I'd rather see us go after Steve Breaston or Lance Moore. Possibly Kevin Walter or Domenik Hixon depending on how they do the remaining of the year.

He was invisible this year in San Diego. He ended up no better than the #4 on that team and they don't exactly have a great WR core.

Sounds like Steve Smith excluding yesterday, so we should of cut him?

Really? Your actually going to compare Steve struggling to Chambers? Like Steve's struggles had nothing to do with having a bottom 5 starting QB throwing him the ball, while Chambers has a top 10 throwing him the ball? Steve is still the #1 on this team and Chambers had been demoted to the #3 or 4 on his team. It's not even a comparison.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
