Portis will probably join that club this year.
Betts' problem is that he is behind Portis. Without a big injury he will not get to shine.

I maintain, really good backs will give you 1300-1500. The backs you mentioned are exceptional. I think you're right, Portis could possibly join that upper echelon this year. Betts is and will never be, in my opinion, in either category. Sure he may be a featured back someday, but I don't think he'll be a game changer or a 1500 yd back no matter how many games he starts, no matter how wide the running lanes, etc.
