Re: Who's better, Clinton Portis or Tatum Bell?
didn't really have the patience to sift through the other posts,lol, so if someone already mentioned this than my bad, but one huge advantage Portis has over Bell, is his ability to pick up the blitz. I can't remember who it was against but there was a play that Portis faked a handoff to one side and then flashed across the line to pick up a blitzer on the opposite side of the o-line. Plus like 12thMan mentioned it's a bit early to say we got the short end of the stick when the player we gave up is out right now and hasn't played like the "shutdown" cb a lot of people had deemed him to be and the player drafted with the pick in the trade has a grand total of 677 yards rushing to his name. I think I'll give it a little bit of time before declaring Portis a bum, unless of course he keeps having costly fumbles.
