Skins and Jets, talk Vilma for Portis.

STOP THE INSANITY.

The trade is impossible from the Redskins' perspective, trading Portis would generate a cap hit we could not absorb. The hit would eat up $8 million in cap space, and we currently only have $4 - $5 million in cap room.

Secondly, the Jets JUST traded for Thomas Jones. We do follow the NFL on this site, right?

This rumor came from Portis being Portis. He was probably effing with the media on purpose. He probably whispered to Vilma beforehand, "Dude check this out, I'm going to send these newspaper types in a tizzy, just play along."

So Jonathan, did you hear you're going to Washington? I think you'll like Washington, how will I like NY?

I honestly hope it happened the way you described, I just won't be surprised if something "shocking" like this happens this weekend.

Dude, the salary cap tells you all you need to know. Portis is untradeable. Completely 100% untradeable. As in it is not fiscally possible.

The only guy that is both fiscally tradeable and is actually worth something is Shawn Springs.
