• Washington will eventually have to make some decisions at the running back position -- especially if free agent Brian Westbrook is added to a cavalry of Clinton Portis, Larry Johnson, Ryan Torain, Willie Parker and Keiland Williams.
But for now, it appears that Portis, the incumbent starter, has the inside track on Washington's No. 1 RB spot. Matt Terl of the Redskins' team blog tweeted from Tuesday's OTA that Johnson received first-team reps early, but Portis took over those snaps for the majority of practice -- "For whatever that's worth," Terl wrote, and it's probably safe to hedge on the situation for now, at least until Westbrook makes up his mind.
Either way, the Redskins will face the probability of needing to trim down one or two backs.

ya think?
I'll be very surprised if Portis is not our lead RB this year ..... so .... IF Westbrook comes in, I wonder who is not staying
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)
