Re: Ladell Betts contract extension

just saw the interview with betts on why he re-signed. really like this guy, he said his role was going to be bigger next year than earlier this year when portis was healthy. i liek this. like i said earlier. i expect 15-25 carries per game from portis, and 10-20 per game for betts, kinda similar to how pittsburgh used bettis and parker. great deal for a deserving guy

Re: Ladell Betts contract extension

Now we have to get Dockery--it seems we're less active on that front. I would have thought that Dock was at least (if not more) important to the skins. Wonder why the hesitation?

From the Post:

Gibbs said the team has been in talks with its other remaining prominent potential free agent, starting guard Derrick Dockery, but was unsure if a deal would be completed before free agency. "You never know what course it's going to take," Gibbs said

It's very possible he's seeking Chris Samuels or Randy Thomas type numbers, and of course he's not worth it. I just have a hunch he's looking for massive numbers. That could explain it.

Re: Ladell Betts contract extension

Dock might be interested in testing the FA waters and who can blame him?

The good news for us is there are a handful of pretty solid guards that should hit the open market this offseason if Dock were to leave.

the redskins stuck with dockery the last few years, even though his play was sub- par. and the reward for that is leaving? this is the thing i hate most about all sports, the lack of loyalty. and, yes, i know it goes both ways
