guys like curtis or robinson won't be big money like wayne or moulds or even r-el (who's overhyped).

I didn't say get scrubs, I said quality backups or #3 or #4s. I cant see Robinson signing for anything less. I was a career year for him, so he's looking to get paid. Curtis, not sure. Injuries are part of the game, hopefully they dont happen, but you cant stack your roster with a bunch of high priced players at one position. Other parts of the roster will pay the price. I'd say we are in the same position if Portis got hurt, Betts may look OK for a game or two, but he hasn't been healthy a whole season yet, and is unproven as a #1 RB. Same thing with the O-line, D-line. You saw what happened when Thomas went down last year. That really hurt us in seattle, we couldn't run worth crap. I am just saying to sign guys that dont drain the wallet. If they have workable demands for contracts, why not, but if they are asking for alot of cash, I dont see us signing them.
