True, but LT had nearly 100 points more than Portis... that 100 points is what seperates the men from the boys.
Portis put up run of the mill solid RB #'s while LT put up premier #'s. You get what you pay for! ;)
BTW, I don't discount that Portis is a decent deal this year (not great by any means), but he is no bargain, and further, he verly likely will cost 2000+ in the last year of his deal next year, which is what we pay premier RB's on the open market. You're basically asking for a premier WR, solid QB, AND a #1 pick for a player that's about 200-300 below what he'd sell for on the open market for this year and this year alone. That's quite a bit IMO. ;)
