Curtis Martin Could Retire (1 Viewer)

Wonder if they'll wait to see who gets cut and just pick up the scraps. Seems like Houston would be a better option than anybody like that, though.

If they do it will just be for depth. Without Martin it looks like they might be a man short.

This is just getting ridiculous.

Sounds like the NY Media is just as bad at speculating as a bunch of FF geeks on a message board.

August 11, 2006, 07:51 Jets, Redskins :: RBRedskins' RB Betts Mentioned In Jets' Search?Rich Cimini, New York Daily News - [Full Article] The Redskins' RB Ladell Betts has emerged as a possibility.

I've said before that Betts would be capable in the right situation of winning a starting job with a team, even though he's not in the upper half of starting RB's league-wide in terms of talent. The player I've compared him to on numerous occasions in that regard? Lamont Jordan. They're reading tea leaves up there. I see very little reason for the 'Skins to trade Betts away. FWIW, he's in a contract year and is a UFA next season.
