Mitchell will replace him, and we'll save a decent amount of cash when we make some cuts. As far as depth at running back, do we have anyone else that can even compare to Clinton Portis? No. But we do have Betts, Trung (for now), Rock, Simon (or is he gone?), McCullough, etc. I think we have too much at running back. Keep Rock, McCullough and maybe Betts depending on what kind of offer we could get for him.

Also, the cap should go up considerably over the next few years if I read Sport's article correctly. If this is true, then we shouldn't have a problem. In another post Matty addresses the fact that the NFL makes it so you can sign draftees to a contract regardless of cap situation, he explained it and honestly it went way over my head, so check through the threads if you're interested in it!

I think it would be a miracle if we could get Taylor and Winslow. I'd love every second of it (and I'm a Florida fan!)
