I agree. They'd have to sweeten the pot with another decent pick or two. But Vilma is only 24, and has proven he's a great leader, he has played with several Redskins at the U, and he's a tackling machine. He can be a perennial candidate for defensive MVP. I believe he is the next great middle linebacker in the NFL. Portis is the man and all, but draft picks aside, I'd rather have a Vilma than CP 1 for 1. Especially with Betts already resigned for a much smaller contract than Portis has. Plus we have the ability to bring Duckett back as well should Portis leave.
