The emergence of Helu may mean that the Skins opt not to spend enough money on Hightower in the free agency period to keep both of them on the squad for 2012. I would prefer that both of them were here but the more Helu achieves in 2011, the less likely that becomes. Such are the economics of NFL salary caps...

I say we've got a pretty decent shot to keep THT. He's had a relatively quiet career and I doubt other teams are going to go into a bidding war for him. He'd be great insurance should Helu get IR'd.
