I'd take Sproles as long as the team traded or cut Cartwright. I'd rather have a KR that actually does more then just KR meaning KR/PR and possibly being 3rd down back vs. taking a roster spot to just KR. I don't care how much of a locker guys he is.

I'd like for us to get rid of Portis's big contract and has anyone heard anything about whether the doctor will clear him to play in the future? Does he still get the head aches?

If you would have asked me a few weeks ago I'd have figured Portis would be gone due to contract, Betts and Cartwright gone due to age, leaving us with Ganther, Mason, and Alridge, then a draft pick and possibly someone like Sproles who could be a KR/PR and
3rd down back. But since Shanahan has said Portis will be back then Betts and Rock are expendable for someone healthier and younger to take over next year when they know the offensive plays better.
