I really enjoyed watching him play in Denver but I think the move to Washington was tough for him. He had to add weight to endure the Smashmouth style that Washington ran. When he came into the league he was at 195 and was elusive and dynamic off Tackle, but when asked to run between the tackles he had to bulk up to 215 and lost some of his lateral quickness.

He's not a top talent anymore and I hope his days in Washington are numbered. Portis is a cancer on the Redskins. He’s not a top talent anymore and I hope his days in Washington are numbered.

I think MS coming in may actually motivate CP to get in shape for one last year in DC. Can't kill MS for bad picks- no one gets them all right. His last draft class was sick- think it was cutler, b-marshall. Scheffler, dumerville. Overall, great hiring for wash. Allen-Shanahan just a tad more qualified than Cerrato-Zorn.

Some other sad draft picks: Jarvis Moss, Tim Crowder and Marcus Thomas. I think Shanahan was (IS) a Great coach when it comes to offense (drafted Eddie Royal, Peyton Hillis, Ryan Clady etc) but when it comes to defense he's pretty awful. As long as Washington D.C. has a good DC I think he'll do fine. Best of luck to 'im! You didn’t mention Dewayne Robertson, he was a sick bust.
