Basically, it all starts with Portis

Does anyone else see that?... Portis always falls on his own face first when he could have gotten serveral more yards. Its like he runs completely downhill to where it benefits the other teams.

Palease! I saw it before we traded for him, I alway's maintained if Betts was in Denver he would have put up the same numbers as Portis, and he runs much harder, his one draw back is his ability to stay healthy.

Bottom line we gave up a ton for a third down change of pace type back, when the holes get big enough for Clinton to run through they will be big enough for just about any other back as well.

Our talent is so overvalued and overpaid it's ridiculous, Lavar, Samuels, Portis, Brunell, any idea what a real GM could do with the money from those salaries? We could have monster players where we need them, offensive, and defensive linemen, instead our top 2 picks spend most of their time on the bench, and as for the rest of the big time surprises Gibbs said where coming out of this draft? Yea right! And that's why Gibbs likes to overpay for established talent no eye for unestablished talent, Taylor was a no brainer, Cooley was a very good job on his part, and that's about it in 2 drafts, Rogers is a quality pick, but we could have done a whole lot to help the overall team by dealing down, instead we gave away next years draft for a QB. I love to hear gibbs justify his signing of estabished talent with the old the draft is a crap shoot, and then give up next years draft for a position which is the biggest crap shoot of all QB! Yes the draft is a crap shoot for those who don't know what they are doing.
