SpinalTapp Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I only speculate because I have to believe Betts would like to be a starter somewhere in the league. However, I am aware Dan S. is not opposed to paying bench warmers starter money. Your thoughts - why did Betts sign an extension now to be Portis' backup when he is a unrestricted free agent?

MrTed46 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Portis wasnt healthy this year. Hes a great backup why not pay him some coin? How much was it? Was it starter rB money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinalTapp Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 I believe they will pay him starter money. I see why the Skins would want to pay Betts...I just can't see why Betts would want to stay a backup when he can get similar or more money and be the man...ultimately getting an even bigger payday in a few years.

slickvick Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Don't quote me but I heard on sports radio 5 years 12 million. Nice job for a back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
