Two capable backs? Betts was 30 years old, and neither he nor Portis have breakaway speed unless they are getting an escort down the sidelines from Mike Brown.
Somehow, I don't think that the Redskins, who have a long and illustrious history of trading picks for players, would find it out of the possibility that they could trade for a 22 year old running back when the combined age of their "top two" is 58.
