I'd bet Dallas keeps Choice and Jones. Jones can take it the distance on any given carry and Choice has proven to be a very capable NFL RB.

Barber is the odd man out.

I don't see an improvement in either regard for them

Why would that matter when the salary cap is all but dead?

Re: LT for Portis?

Let's trade one broken down back for another. Makes sense to me.

Must really be the offseason eh?

Re: LT for Portis?

I was all for trading Portis earlier, but i'm not convinced he has any real value.

Physical limitation and injury concerns aside, i doubt any team would want him because of his attitude and the fact that he could be locker room trouble.

He would not be a good mentor for young players, and he just has no role on a team who is trying to be competitive...

Re: LT for Portis?

I know they said they'd be okay with starting Jammer and Cason at CB next year but what if we tendered Rogers and sent him in a package Deal with Portis for Cromartie alone. Or maybe Cromartie and a 4-6th round pick, or hell Cromartie and Tomlinson lol. Id want the Cromartie and 4-6th round pick. I believe we'd also get a compensatory pick for losing rogers. But he has said numberous times that he'd rather be somewhere else and Cromartie is more productive.

Not going to happen. They want a younger or more promising back.

You're slowly becoming the Vinny Cerrato of this forum with your transaction proposals...

**Trade Campbell for a 4th rounder
**Trade Rogers and Portis for Cromartie
**Build the offensive line with low round picks, UDFAs, and he wonderful crop of FAs we'll have this offseason (ok, I made this one up).

Re: LT for Portis?

id much rather have cromartie. not sure the skins would give up their high 2nd rounder this year but id be tempted to offer our 2nd in 2011 for him. def our 4th this year and next years 3rd.

i follow the chargers alil bit and the fans (and FO it seems) to want to move him.

Sources: San Diego Chargers shopping cornerback Antonio for running back - ESPN

I haven't read the story, but from a fan perspective, any particular reason they want to move him?

Re: LT for Portis?

well, the post in the super duper funny thread kinda explains it well. i think dirtbag posted it. the fans are mad b/c he doesnt play physical at all. im honestly at a momentary loss for the other reasons but

the article points out they have depth at cb with 1st round pick jammer (whom charger fans wanted gone years ago and considerd him a bust after a few seasons which i thought was insane b/c he played pretty well back then considering they had NO ONE else in their secondary) and another 1st round cb who i am not too familiar with.

i may be stuck on '07 cromartie and not the '09 cromartie thoo in my assessment of him.

Re: LT for Portis?

We already have contact-avoiding, non-physical corners. We don't need to add another like AC.
