RB's are worried in Washington

[That Guy]

portis is the guy that wanted edge to come to DC and also stated he's fine with getting 10 carries a game. so why's he bitching now? right now he's hurt and the ground game sucks, and that's that.

seriously. duckett >>>>>>> betts. I still don't see the logic behind a 3rd rounder for a rent-a-player, but the talent is there.

I agree about the 3 rounder for 1 year...Makes me wonder if gibbs and crew plan on putting the charm on Duck and buttering him up to sign a new deal/extension before the season starts/early in the season this year.

The other thing I wonder about is if they've already spoken with Duck's agent/Duck about what he wants in the future and plan on him being here for a while even though the current contract runs out soon.

Or they could expect that since the skins have great locker room chemistry, the best fans in the world, and are going to win the super bowl this year that he won't be able to help himself and will have to be a skin as long as they want him.

Or...

too bad winning a superbowl puts dollar signs in everyone's eyes and all the FAs tend to jet ASAP for big deals... after losing pierce, Gibbs and co. have done a good job keeping people off the FA market (lemar (before being named the starter) + rock got a 3 year deal, santana, el, etc all got 7 year deals, and so on).

Super Bowls become really expensive once the celebration dies down.

You are either being a silly billy or didn't realize the other part of my post. Because of the great fans and the incredible locker room chemistry, everyone who's contracts are up will sign for the veteran minumum...the incentive will be the $5,000 extra they are paid for each trip around redskins park giving snyder piggy back rides. Seriously, if they do win the big one and almost everyone on the team will have an article or 20 about how they are the player that had the most to do with the sucess of the redskins, why would any of them expect big money?

Also, speaking of superbowls, did you know that Jerome Bettis founded Detroit City? Did you know that no Steelers players from last year cared about football or winning? They only worked hard, sacrificed, struggled, studied, and willed their way to victory because they wanted Bettis to win a ring, the fact they got rings didn't matter to them, only Bettis' ring matters.
