StevieInferior Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 . . . Jansen on having center Cory Raymer back: ``He's as ugly as ever.'' And yet another are-you-kidding: Byron Chamberlain showed up out of shape. He looked as big as he did last season when he was quite rotund. During one game in 2003 in which he was inactive, Chamberlain was spotted buying hot dogs at halftime. Can't imagine he'll last long. http://redskins.theinsiders.com/2/246200.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The X-Factor Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: Chamberlain has got to be on the dumbest players in the league. How can you show up to mini-camp out of shape? This guy us asking to get cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeSkins Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Oh no, Byron. I really liked him too when he was in Denver and Minnesota. Why is he Bacon Chamberlain when he comes here? Thank God that Samuels and Jansen can quickly regain a rapport with their old center. Offensive lines have to stay together. I think only one possible player switch this year will do wonders for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr11fan Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Hmm, hope that doesn't open the door for KW2, I thought they were counting on Chamberlain doing something this year, thus the reason they kept him around this long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimster Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I was getting high hopes for Chamberlain making the roster too. How much would he save us if we cut him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 This may be one of the FA moves that Gibbs talking about that was a mistake. Chamberlain was given a chance to resurrect his career here..... and they made a decision to keep him and pay the $50K bonus. Turns out... he's as fat as his was last year and going to be no help for the Redskins as a pass catcher. Well, on second thought.... if Bugel thinks of his TEs as "outside tackles"... Chamberlain is certainly rounding into Tackle-Like shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Yeah but I was under the impression that run and pass blocking isnt his strong suit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKINtil8tin Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 That's too bed. Was hoping Chamberlain would show up in shape. He's great for me in Madden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeSkin Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 That is the funniest thing I've ever heard. Chamberlain should be cut today and then handed over to the stupid police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I keep telling people that guys like Chamberlain and Russell were released for reasons that you don't want to pick them up. These were not moves made to release players because of salary escalations under the cap or a logjam of talent at the positions in question. these players were set adrift because they weren't in shape and had other issues that limited their ability to contribute. Nothing has changed. After 3 years of carrying him the Redskins finally jettisoned Zeron Flemister. Let's do the same with Chamberlain and go with some guys that are hungry and want to be NFLers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 Originally posted by Skinderella That's too bed. Was hoping Chamberlain would show up in shape. He's great for me in Madden. Im 8 seasons into my franchise, but geez, I had Chamberlain for the first 2 starting and a reserve the 3rd season as he was going to retire; I drafted Heath Miller and hes turned out great also. Chamberlain was simply amazing in the game, had speed, power, and great hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfanjoe Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 We have Royal and Rasby already. We can cut Chamberlain and find someone else that's willing to work hard to take his roster spot. He either has a drug problem, eating problem, is flat out dumb, or all of the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkyalligator Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 If Gibbs feels that Chamberlain won't be getting into shape by the time the second training camp comes around....he is .......fired!!!(i.e. released) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I think we may be overlooking another H-back possibility, 6'3" 258lbs. Leonard Stephens. He caught a couple balls for S2, and I thought he seemed coachable and willing to work. As for Chamberlain, release that punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't this guy a stock broker before we signed him off the street last year? I'll pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
