Right, but like you said he is not the size of KJ, Ward, or TO... But hell even Santana Moss did a decent job this year blocking when he had to... I mean I dont expect him to pancake anyone, just occupy a defender just long enough to watch Portis run by thats all...

i always heard that randle el was a great blocker for pitts. (i mean look at their running game)

If Portis is the focal point of the O then he definitely could have a year of epic Redskin proportions or the offense gets spread around so much that 1500+ yds and 10+ TD's is going to be his trademark stats for the next 3 or 4 years.

I would take that kind of consistancy. I think our offense will allow Portis to find his own holes once he gets going because the D is going to be so spread out. I would love to see him average 5+ yards a carry and I really think he's going to. Can we start the season now?!?!?

I'm am so happy about all the stuff that's happened this offseason so far (and the draft hasn't even come yet). I am not really worried about team chemistry because I think the team is in capable hands with gibbs, williams and now saunders. I don't worry about too many cooks and all of that (coaches and skilled-offensive players) - if that is our biggest problem, that's a problem any team would love to have. I really can't complain about too much of what has happened with the team. I really believe that other teams are worried which they should be.

My take on this is that we've got players here who will be happy with victories. If Moss only gets 70 catches next year, but we go 13-3, I don't see him demnding a trade. If Randle El catches 40 balls, and doesn't start every game, but we go to the Super Bowl, I don't think we'll have a controversy. We should have good chemistry, because we all have the same goal.

hmm...dont know if i think he will get 2,000 total. think about it like this. 4 good recievers, and an elite h-back. dont think portis will get more than 250 yards recieving. 1,750 yards rushing would be around what he would need. its possible, but we will see

itvnetop · 03-15-2006, 05:05 PM

with saunders and the new weapons on offense, portis is a sure fire first round fantasy pick...

Has that been confirmed? Because I heard that was just a rumor. They had made a test cover with him, but that didn't necessarily mean he'd be the final choice
