My Take--Portis on the Move Again
The Redskins just gave Betts a 5 yr, 11 million dollar extension. He seems to be a durable back with a good skill set. I just don't see that as the kind of money that you'd invest in a backup RB. It wouldn't surprise me to see the Redskins trade Portis in the offseason.
I could see him going to the following teams: Denver: Bell can't carry the load, it's obvious. He's a change of pace/3rd down back. This is not good for us. The Goddamned Jets: They don't have a legitimate back to replace Martin, IMO. Washington and Houston both seem like backups. Portis would give them a franchise back and great option behind a young and rapidly improving solid line. Houston: This is dependent on how Davis returns from his injury. Dayne, Lundy, and Gado aren't the answer. Portis knows Kubiak from Denver, and he's familiar with their zone blocking scheme. A possible fit. They could also offer a high 2nd for him, which would be good trade fodder for Wash. Other teams that need backs: Oakland (no way, he'd refuse that trade, and who could blame him) Green Bay (if Green leaves, but I doubt Portis would want to go there either). I thought this might be interesting to discuss. Just thought about it as I was shaving. |

I'm real suprised Betts didn't wait, he could've probably gotten more money. He has kicked some ass the last few games. Reminds me of the good ole BSHS days!
