Tim - the story goes that Champ was involved with a D.C. reporter. And his Bride gave him the following ‘choice’ - leave Washington, or I am leaving you! He’s an HOFr, but human as well. Yup, sucks that he bad mouthed after he left, but he couldn't keep it in his pants. We got a bit screwed on the trade (Thanks Vinny!). CB4 is deserving. After the past 14 years since he left (and the 11 preceding that), is it any surprise players bad mouth us and players are disgruntled when here? They aren't bad mouthing us, btw, they're bad mouthing the horrific, incompetent and entitled F.O/Organization. |

They aren't bad mouthing us, btw, they're bad mouthing the horrific, incompetent and entitled F.O/Organization. As I said previously, his leaving had a lot more to do with his own indiscretions. While he was here what I respected about him was the quiet way he went about things. That's why the bad mouthing was disappointing. |

Perhaps Adrian Peterson will be admitted to the HoF as a Redskin

Stink, that comment was edited away from celebrating injury by me. So Giles commentary is not properly reflected. He was not commenting on the hit.

So happy for Champ. Looking forward to his speech this weekend.
Also, the Hall of Fame Committee is supposed to decide in a few weeks if it will have 20 Hall of Fame inductees to celebrate 100 years of the NFL in 2020. That should mean Joe Jacoby is inducted.

I kinda remember it seemed like he knew Lavar was a loose cannon sort of and he figured they shoulda paid him not Lavar . Didn’t know about the whoa man stuff .

That's incorrect, Kaiser. Arrington got paid and Champ didn't. Look it up. Nacks got this 100% right and it was absolutely the wrong decision. They doubled down on the terrible decision to spend two first round draft picks to acquire Arrington with a second contract hadn’t earned and did not deserve. |

Overrated. A product of media hype. It's a funny thing. When he was a Refskin, the media regarded him as a good, not elite CB who was decidedly NOT a shut down corner. The day he was traded, he was nothing less than a full-on elite, shut-down corner. Just being in a Redskins uniform lowers a players hype stock. |

Can't catch a pick if they don't throw it your way. I'm happy he's headed to Canton. My only regret is that it is as a Bronco and not a Skin. I was crushed when we paid Arrington instead of Champ. |

He wasn’t that great with us. After the trade it was discovered his eyesight was not great, he got contacts and maybe the system was better for him as well. He never looked back. I think he was a bit overhyped but he has the numbers so it’s hard to argue.

I think you are thinking of Carlos "Hands of Stone" Rogers.
He went to the 49ers where it was discovered that he needed contacts.
Roland was a top tier talent and we all knew it from the day he was drafted. Unfortunately for us all, things did not work out for him here in Washington.

Hands down Champ > Arrington.
From college scouting thru out their careers.
Yep, Danny picked the wrong player to love, again.

Champ was drafted and played for the Skins but I consider him a Bronco.

I hated seeing Bailey traded to Denver.
I still can't believe the Skins had to include a draft pick, instead of the other way around — Portis was decent, but this was a very lopsided deal in Denver's favor.
The first of a long history of Shanahan making the Redskins decidedly worse.
Champ should have spent his whole career in Washington.

LaVar did one have one moment in the news. We had a pretty good D in 2000. With a real head coach that knew how to win in December, we would've won 11 games that year instead of flopping two division games in a row against Philly and NYG. Too bad. But LaVar was never worth what we gave him. Marty Schottenheimer got a great year out of him in 2001 but that was really it. |

He was voted to 12 Pro Bowls and was a three time All Pro. He's ranked #1 all time in passes defensed. How can he NOT be in the HOF? When you’re infected w/delusional homerism and question why a player might not have been happy w/the idea of signing an extension w/a team that had had 8 different starting QB’s, 4 different coaches and 3 different GM’s & 2 different owners in his 5 seasons there. Gosh, how could he have possibly been lukewarm on resigning w/us?!?! |

Champ was great. But, it wasn't our fault that he forced a trade because his wife told him he had to get out of DC.

None of it was our fault. Whether he was forced out by his girlfriend, wife or whatever or the incompetent organization, we weren't responsible for any of it.
We just need to be objective when it comes to evaluating these guys, and questions related to the team itself. Pretending Champ was some regular average corner or above average corner is beyond silly.
