Get ready for the "link please" onslaught. In fact, I'll start:

Link please?

Link Please. I think alot of teams would be interested in Portis but it probably stops there.

It's about half-way down...

It's nothing more than the Denver papers picking up on the rumors that were floating around last week about the Skins possibly shopping Portis.

January 7
Denver Post: "There is speculation the Redskins might trade running back Clinton Portis. With backup Ladell Betts emerging and Portis' expensive contract, the Redskins may want to move Portis, but it will be difficult."

I think the skins would have a hard time trading CP. He older, dinged up and costs a lot of $. Thats the kind of player the skins love but most teams shy away from those types of players.

If the skins could unload CP I'd love to see them get a bunch of draft picks.

Thanks for the links.

Wasn't Portis unhappy in Denver anyway? Didn't they maintain he wasn't worth what he was asking? I thought that bridge was a pile of ashes at this point.

This is nothing more than pure speculation. Its a writer throwing out possibilities even if they are remote. Everybody thinks that just b/c Betts had a great year that all of a sudden we're not going to need CP.

He's only 25.

Age isn't the issue, his contract is.
