I would actually like to see him shead some weight, I believe his speed and quickness are his best assets, he will never be a move the pile kind of back, I felt he lost his quickness with the weight last season. Some players have the body type to add weight and not lose their speed and quickness, I don't believe Portis has that body type, I think he should try to enhance his best qualities [speed and quickness] rather than sacrifice those attributes to be a power runner which he will never truly be.
