NFL Football Gridiron Guru: Portis remains a valuable keeper - CBS SportsLine.com:

Football (t d) Sac Says: Well I'm not down with that! Portis is good, ok, fine. He is not elite, great or even spectacular. What he did in Denver (t d) is what backs do in Denver. Washington's anemic Offense is not going to get some iron anytime soon. Getting rid of Coles for Moss (t d) was 2 steps back and with Ramsey as the QB, I just don't see them able to play ball control football where Portis would get lots of looks. I also don't think his hands are that great so there is that as well. There are 5-7 other backs I would choose before Portis. Alexander (t d), Tomlinson, Martin (yes the league leader at 31 last year), Green to name a few. I would also choose a rookie such as Cedric Benson if he gets on a good team. I would even go as far as saying as far as productivity I would choose McGahee or better yet Dillon (t d) both will be better fantasy options before Portis.
