The deal that finally got Knowshon Moreno, the Broncos’ first draft pick, into camp includes almost a nearly $13 million guarantee — a big chunk of change, particularly considering how prone running backs are to getting hurt. Fortunately, Moreno has what WalterFootball.com’s pre-draft report described as a “minimal injury history with not many miles on his tires” — and there’s no denying his onfield skills are spectacular. (They’ll need to be, considering quarterback Kyle Orton’s dispiriting performance at last week’s Invesco Field practice.) Judging by the video above, it may have been money well spent.
