who wants him? he has very little value cause he's a #2 that's going to require a new contract. we're not going to get anybody better than we already have for him, and until portis is 100%, he has MUCH more value to the skins than any other team in the league.

after this year i do think he'll be gone though. cartwright has a 3 year vet min deal as the #3, portis is still too expensive to consider letting go, so we either pick duckett, draft a guy or see if anyone is on the market for cheap. if duckett gets a big deal and betts is cheap to re-sign, he might stay around, but injury risks at important backup spots aren't generally a good idea.
