Do you think the Broncos would give us Champ Bailey and his career high 7 picks for a first round pick and Clinton Portis. No, they hustled us for champ and a draft pick.
Why is it that players leave D.C. (in any sport) and become winners.

First of all, Tatum Bell can't even crack the starting lineup in Denver and using the fact that Portis was second round pick is flat out retarded.
Brett Favre was a second round pick, there's not many first rounders I would take over him. Tom Brady was a 6th round pick, do we need to get into that? Would you try to discredit Tom Brady because he was picked late? Do you think the Pats should give up on him now because he was picked so late? Give me a break.
As for your boy Tatum Bell, he's got all of 686 yards this season. Wow, that's huge. The worst season Clinton ever had in Denver was 1508 yards, that's not even in the same damn ballpark. I don't think Tatum should make reservatioins in Hawaii, just yet.
And, oh by the way, Champ Bailey didn't want to come back to the Redskins. He wasn't going to play another down for this team. He had decided that before we traded him. He didn't want to be here and he wasn't going to be here, so why does everyone make a big deal about the fact that we traded him and a second round pick for Portis? Who cares? We essentially traded a first round pick for Coles, I don't hear that getting rehashed every damn week.
Why does it matter what he would have been making in Denver? That's why he's not there any more. He decided he should be paid more and they decided that they wouldn't pay him. Kinda like what happened with Champ here.
