Arrrrrggghhhhhh....the opening of old wounds. I still regret losing Vincent to the Eagles. Although, it makes me wonder whether keeping Vincent would have meant never having drafted Madison and Surtain.
dolphin39 - I think he means Troy Vincent of the Eagles.
It shows how long it has been since Troy was in Miami, people don't even remember him being a Phin
Vincent was a great CB for the Phins and would have been better if he was not hurt returning a kick or punt (?).
It was returning a punt. This was my argument when Marion was used as a kick returner. As far as I'm concerned, starting players (especially those as important as Vincent/Marion) should never be used as returners, there is just too much risk of injury. Besides, the game is grueling enough without exhausting them with non-essential duties.
As for Chambers, he is far from reacing his potential. He is still very raw, and his upside is almost off the chart. One aspect that may have disuaded teams from drafting him, is that he was considered a long- term, developmental kind of guy. The Packers may have gone for Furguson, simply because they thought he would contribute sooner than Chris..... Kind of ironic looking back. However, the point is that all teams make draft mistakes, that is what makes it the annual lottery.
