Betts has always been good on edge plays and dump offs, but his blocking and running between the tackles are still suspect. Portis makes up for what he lacks in those areas though, and since Betts has shown he can be quite effective at edge plays, I think Saunders would use them more like Holmes and Johnson if he had them both next season.
That being said, I think Betts will be gone next season, since most of the comments I've heard from him point to the fact that he's pretty intent on testing the free agent market.
