Ladell Betts contract extension

Exactly, he would have gotten PAID by somebody else in dire need of a RB, and regardless of what anyone here thinks of Ladell, his career numbers and performance filling in for Portis this season would have been enough to get him big bucks -- at least Lamont Jordan '05 bucks, which was 5 years, $27 million, including $11m guaranteed. Betts is having a better year this season than Jordan ever had before bolting for Oaktown.

So, Betts leaves and we're gonna find a quality, reliable RB2 who's a "True Redskin" like Joe needs, understands the offense, and is liked and respected by his teammates, for less than what we paid Betts?

You can even look at Chester Taylor last year, the Vikings gave him 5 years, $14M

Dock might be interested in testing the FA waters and who can blame him?

The good news for us is there are a handful of pretty solid guards that should hit the open market this offseason if Dock were to leave.
the redskins stuck with dockery the last few years, even though his play was sub- par. and the reward for that is leaving? this is the thing i hate most about all sports, the lack of loyalty. and, yes, i know it goes both ways
