I like it because it allows for varying skill sets. They all are well suited for a zone-blocking, one-cut style. But Johnson's a bit more of a bruiser, Portis is the all-around with the great pass protection skills, and Willie is still pretty darn fast and can be that change of pace.

So we have 5 HBs on the roster then? PJ Hill and Alridge are also in mix. Should I draw a Josh McDaniels comparison?

wtf I go searching for posts for a bit and miss out on page 1 goodness

very loaded backfield... I'd have to imagine these guys will all be on the opening day roster

Can u say run first team? Lol I like the move but we will see if he makes this team.

Nice signing. Suddenly we have a good backfield.

[Dirtbag59]

Anyone up now for trading Orakpo and a second round pick for a disgruntled running back?

Who knows? Maybe Portis ends up being the odd man out.

Anyway Redskins now have 3 of the top 10 rushers since 2004. Portis 4th, Johnson 5th, Parker 10th.

Parker's agent: 'It's flat out an open competition' at RB

Apparently, Clinton Portis really will have to fight to keep his job.

That seemed clear Friday after the Redskins signed running back Willie Parker, adding another Pro Bowl runner to a backfield that already included Portis and the recently signed Larry Johnson. Parker signed an incentive-laded one-year contract worth as much as $3.1 million, league sources said.

Portis is guaranteed $6.4 million this season, but Coach Mike Shanahan has made it clear every job on the roster is open. So with the addition of Johnson and Parker, the battle in the backfield is on.

"It's flat out an open competition," said Parker's agent, Doug Hendrickson. "That's what they told Willlie. It's a flat-out open competition as to who's going to play and who's going to start. They said that's the way it's going to be."

What? When has this ever been mentioned?

Or is this a play on the Portis-Bailey trade? If so I'm still not quite sure the point.
