Re: Champ Bailey Returns To DC: HOF Bronco or Skin?

as usual we got the short end of the stick on that trade, even though i am a portis fan, but i would have to think he would go in as a bronco

he is a lock for the hof, and with 8 probowls so far in a 10 year career i would think first ballot as well

does his brother still play with the broncos?

If you read the article, Bailey likes Denver more than DC and will go in as a Bronco.

Why would Portis go in as a Bronco when he's played the majority of his career here and left on bad terms there?

Ah gotcha...

Regarding Portis yeah possibly, depending on how he finishes up his career. He's only 28, he still potentially has some good years left. First off he needs a good OL in front of him again, and #2 I think he would need to really dedicate himself to getting in top shape. I think he's a bit lazy at times right now and relies too much on his natural ability.

Re: Champ Bailey Returns To DC: HOF Bronco or Skin?

I wonder if Champ was one of the HOF players that Darrell Green and his son were discussing that would go into the HOF who were playing today. I thought that was such an arrogant comment, especially coming from Darrell's son who unless I am mistaken, has yet to really do anything significant at UVA.

Bailey is a lock for the HOF. 8 pro bowls and one of the most dominate corners in the league. He will go in as a Bronco only because the Skins didn't want to pay him and from what he says that he wanted to get out of this organization because of its dysfunction. I would say that he always had problems covering Amani Toomer though.

No way in the world Portis deserves the hof.

I would not say you got the short end there, actually.

Top tier CB's usually have a longer productive career than running backs anyway, due to the punishment RB's take week in and week out.

RB's entering there 30's are usually on the decline and looking at substitution roles. Where as a CB can still produce at that age.

Asomugha is (imo) the top CB out there now. But shutdown CB's like that are always compared to Bailey. That says a lot about a player.
