He's talented, but we don't need him. Ladell Betts fits into Gibbs' system better. We could get a lot of talent for Portis... Think of the Herschel Walker trade. monk81 01-02-2005, 04:36 PM Betts waits for his blockers..............I don't think I'd trade Portis though... MTK 01-02-2005, 04:53 PM Think of the giant cap hit Let's stop this talk right now, LOL Bozzy 01-02-2005, 05:04 PM It wouldn't be a cap hit, because his contract wouldn't be ended. It goes to the team acquiring him. monk81 01-02-2005, 05:08 PM How's this..............we trade Portis back to Denver for Champ Bailey, get a 2nd round draft pick, and Smoot becomes a free agent and Denver picks up Smoot............. just kidding........because I don't think you can seriously consider this Bozzy......sorry...............

CC might have to give us the final verdict on this, Its not like it is in baseball , I'm 99.9% sure you still take a cap hit. CrazyCanuck 01-02-2005, 05:30 PM Portis' cap hit for 2005 is $2.4M. If we trade him we'll eat $9.6M of dead cap. In other words, it ain't happening. Bozzy 01-02-2005, 05:33 PM Portis' cap hit for 2005 is $2.4M. If we trade him we'll eat $9.6M of dead cap. In other words, it ain't happening. Won't his salary be sent to the team that acquires him? Bozzy 01-02-2005, 05:34 PM Fine, then make Portis the backup to Betts. BrudLee 01-02-2005, 05:37 PM His bonus would be accelerated to us.
