Look at it this way: Porte has, time after time turned himself inside out in the service of Froome - some of his performances last year were bonkers. Froome can rely on him to bury himself completely just to get him on a wheel, or sit on Berts wheel when he goes up the hill.
Could you say the same about Wiggins? Yeah. Right. He's not worked for anyone else for years and has several times gone missing in key races when he just can't be bothered or isn't in the mood for the weather.
Tl;dr - Porte is nailed on to bury himself, Wiggins is just a big fat question mark.
