Iowa Skins Fan:

1. Of course he will renegotiate the contract in Denver - probably after year #3 - or they will have to make him a cap causalty. That is why he wanted a shorter deal instead of the 9 year deal originally offered by the Skins. The shorter contract becomes "burdensome" a lot faster. Do you think Jeremiah Trotter will play out his deal here without a restructuring? How about LaVar? That is the way contracts are done in the NFL at the moment for star players.

2. He will be an excellent cornerback in Denver just as he was and would have been here in Washington.

3. If the vaunted "Broncos' system" turns another of their RBs into a 1300 - 1600 yard rusher, they won't care if Portis is gone. If it doesn't...
