I can understand why the 'Skins aren't eager to give up a 2nd rounder in addition to Champ, but I think this is a deal they have to find a way to get done.

Yes Shanahan's system has pumped out it's share of 1000 yard rushers, but Portis is not a product of his system. The guy is a complete back, he has the quickness, speed, hands, agility and vision that every team dreams of.

Portis in Gibbs' offense would be downright scary. With an offense that would feature Coles, Brunell and Portis it would be downright explosive and perhaps the most talented trio Gibbs has ever had.
