Some of you guys make it sound like Portis, Johnson, and Parker are washed up and done. We're talking about a group that's barely 30 years of age. One could argue that Johnson has the least wear and tear of the bunch. The point isn't which one will be great by himself, but the possibility of them being great together.

If we can get 1,800 yards combined out from this combo, it was well worth not drafting a big name running back this time around. As far as Parker goes, he's a true change of pace back for the Skins, and I'd take him over Rock or Betts any day of the week.

We are very quietly having a solid off season.
