    Knowshon Moreno - RB - Broncos

    NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Broncos aren't expected to be able to re-sign impending free agent Knowshon Moreno.
    It sounds like the Broncos don't believe they'll be able to afford Moreno. Denver currently has just over $122 million committed to the projected $126 million salary cap for 2014. Moreno is coming off a career year in which he rushed for 1,038 yards and ten touchdowns, while averaging 4.3 YPC. He also caught 60 balls for 548 yards and three additional scores. Moreno wasn't much of a player before Peyton Manning got to town, as he had been relegated to scout team at one point. He's been able to run against soft fronts due to the Broncos' lethal aerial attack. Moreno is a prime candidate to be vastly overpaid this offseason.

    Hopefully I was just a big 365 days early on Montee Ball. If he starts next year, watch out. Those top 5-10RB numbers will finally show up :)

    Nice list linebacker. Ball is being trusted more and more. If Beown could stay healthy he'd be a steal for some team.

    Yeah I'm not sure Denver will re-sign Moreno with Ball coming along, unless Ball messes up in the SB lol or Moreno goes for 150 yards and wins MVP.  Lets keep in mind that Moreno's rookie contract was only 16 mil, so he absolutely has to take a max deal somewhere.Though i read that there's a team option for 2014 for 5 mil.  Wouldn't the Bronco's just pick that up?

    I found this regarding Moreno

     

    Andrew Mason, who is one of the best journalists out there and covers the Broncos in Denver independently on the team site, reported that he’s been informed running back Knowshon Moreno’s salary option for 2014 was voided (at some point or another) and he will be a free agent in 2014.

    This is surprising because we’ve been led to believe for the longest time that Moreno’s contract was a club option in 2014 at a very cheap price (around $1.4M), but now it appears as though at some point along the way, the team and Moreno voided that final year and now he will be able to hit the free agent market this offseason

    Smitty, I've been the biggest detractor on Ball, but I must admit, you may get sweet justice next year. He has shown improvement, he is a tough runner, and in that offense, he doesn't need to be great, just tough and consistent. And what is he best at? Goal line running, nose for the end zone, a perfect fit for a pass heavy offense. Acquiring Ball this offseason if you can catch another owner sleeping may turn out to be pure gold come next year, let's just say I've moved from non-believer to very very intrigued!

    Tate and DMC are the most intriguing. MJD backs up Murray

    Any thoughts on Anthony Dixon? If given the opportunity, I think he could have some sleeper value

    Browns GM Mike Lombardi was high on impending free agent Ben Tate when Tate came out of Auburn in 2010.

    We have special insight into Lombardi's past thinking because he wrote for National Football Post before working at NFL Network, and eventually resurfacing in the NFL with Cleveland. Of Tate, Lombardi wrote "He has an ability to hit the hole with a burst and is a one-cut runner," going so far as to predict Tate would win 2010 Rookie of the Year. Lombardi also liked fellow free agent Anthony Dixon, whom he called a "good back ... who can run the power play effectively ... and has the ability to break tackles." The Browns need a running back.
