Clinton Portis among players who have worn out their welcome

Chevy13 · 10-29-2009, 04:46 PM

I don't completely agree with the article (The CP part) but here it is:
Chiefs' Johnson, others have worn out welcome - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

I think Portis has lost a step but I think he'd be doing a lot better if we had a better oline. I believe that the way the oline is playing makes him look worst than he really is.

I'd do it. Quinn's young enough, probably still has a ton of potential and could use a change of scenery, and he won't break the bank. And we'll get rid of Portis before the wheels completely fall off and unload what's becoming a yearly renewed contract.

Quinn is terrible. He can't drive the ball, his ball floats cause he doesn't have an NFL arm, all he does is check the ball down. Why do you think Mangini is sticking w/ Anderson? Cause Quinn gives them no big play potential. If the line gets fixed around here CP can still carry the load. But he's the biggest diva in the NFL and we'll see if the new coaching staff wants to deal w/ him.

Good call, we could probably get Cleveland to cough up a pick also. This should be one of the first scenarios looked at this off-season by the new GM.

I doubt a pick also, but player for player is possible.. Knowing DS we would be the idiots giving away a pick..

Yeah, remember we gave Denver Champ Bailey and a 2nd round pick for Champ Bailey? We should have received a draft pick for that trade.

Nice, it's not often that you can work the word "mangina" into a conversation.

For the benefit of himself and the team, he needs to be on the South end of a....broom come January

Clinton still has it...he's just not seeing too many holes to burst through with our god awful line. I still like CP, he can stay.

I think that's precisely why we should trade him - he still has it. Let's start moving guys out like the Pats do. They're usually a year or two ahead of the player reaching their decline. Portis still has some trade value and I think we can make a move or two.

EXACTLY, get something for him and let the wheels fall off with a team NOT beginning with R
