The Texans may be thinking about pursuing Portis, but as soon as they initiate discussions with Gibbs they'll realize he's not for sale.

Gibbs will NEVER trade Portis. No way, no how. First off, he LOVES Portis. Secondly, we'd have to take a big salary cap hit to trade one of our best players. Not gonna happen.

I love idiotic trade rumors that don't give consideration to the salary cap. It's the #1 way to tell if a rumor is just that.

I do not think that the trade will happen but I am not as sure as schneed10 is about that. I have seen stranger thing happen, cap space or not.

The love affair between Gibbs and Portis may have hit a snag or two when Portis was pouting about playing in pre-season games and would not let it go. That along with the way Al Saunders compliments Betts may make this rumor more of a reality than we think.

If you were a GM, would you trade your #1 pick for a RB coming off major shoulder surgery? We have to do some major re-working of some contracts already existing on the team, another #1 in conjunction with our own would be a bit much, unless the intent would be to trade that pick also. With Betts history of injury problems, we may have to take a long hard look at trading Portis, which I don't think Gibbs would do anyway.

how could you be so certain?

and what would you do, after writing all of this, if he is traded for 1 draft pick?

Because if he is traded that is probably all that we would receive for him

Because The kid is one of our core players, and due t recent behavior by the FO (the contract extention of LB), I don't see the kid being traded unless all of those things are offered

I am hoping that he is not traded either but ,like I said earlier, I have seen stranger things happen...hell...The Colts traded Marshall Faulk when he was a core player and it worked out good for the Colts and Faulk AND the Rams did not have to trade their whole team and waterboys to get Faulk...LB's contract extension has nothing to do with Portis

In my opinion it does. It shows the FOs faithfulness to players that prove their worth. Portis has more than done that

Your opinion is yours and I will respect that butif there is one thing that I have learned in my years of being a football fan it would be that you can never say never. IF and I said IF Portis was to be traded he would not be the best player ever traded in the NFL

Personally I would love to see us get rid of Portis before the next seemingly inevitable season ending injury.

Besides, he's an attention seeking whiner and we'd be better off without him. :)
