    A healthy chunk of that will be going to keep their players.

    Decker being the biggest target to keep JMO. But depending on what he wants, I'd try to keep Knowshon the hardest.

    They value Decker at #2 money (6-7 mil a year), he'll probably get #1 money (9-10+ mil a year)

    Doesnt look like they'll keep Knowshon though, unless he's gonna break the bank, i dont know why they wouldnt keep him.

    Schefter said he may want to finish his career in Georgia.

    Would love Knowshon in Atlanta but he's not a need at all. Only way I'd bring him in is if it's for a huge deal similar apy like Bush or Jackson signed for. Maybe a little more.

    Champ is finished. He is a waste of a roster spot at this point.

    lol he can still play but his snaps need to be limited.

    I wonder if the foot injury bothered him too much.

    He just finished his 3rd season, with room to grow.
    18 mil is going rate...you have to keep him because who else are you going to get that's better?

    They drafted Ball that had a very good ypc last year and really came on toward the end. I wouldn't bank on a Knowshon return. Most backs flourish in a PM offense, so they probably would take the plug n play course of action even if they didn't have Ball.

    It wouldn't shock me if they made a tiny run at Donald Brown if he isn't brought back by Indy though. Just give them two backs to pound it with when they get in those SD\SEA games...

    Knowshon is very underrated JMO. He's not an elite back and if he looks for that kind of money he should be cast aside. But if he signs around 7M some team would be wise to pick him up. If someone can get him for 5 that would be a great risk to take.

    Only concern for Knowshon is health. He can run well, he's one of the best in the league out of the Backfield.

    As I said above, if he'd sign a 4/16 deal like Bush did last year to come play in Georgia again, I'd welcome him in. I know it's not a big need but we could tandem him with Jackson to start then cut Jackson after 2014.

    Well, thats not the only concern. He was on the roster bubble before Pey Pey came in the fold. In fact he was predicted to be cut in favor of the three headed monster of scrubs Elway brought in until they saw none of them could pass protect worth a flip.

    What has changed since then? Peyton. Lot of backs look great with him on the field.

    Knowshon was fine before Peyton got there, aside from health.

    No 1k yard seasons in the 4 previous. We will just have to agree to disagree there. Health played a part, but he was not in favor in Den before Peyton got there.

    He never played a fully healthy season. His y/g went up by like 5 yards under peyton and his y/a was the same.

    Y/A in 09 and 10 was 3.8 and 4.3 respectively. 12 and 13 were 3.8 and 4.3 respectively.

    I just disagree. Elway didn't want him on the roster until he learned no one could pass pro. He stayed by default.

    That's fine. Buffalo gave up on Marshawn Lynch, and then he went to Seattle and became one of the best RBs in the NFL.

    Can you imagine if Buffalo stuck with Lynch and drafted Anthony Davis, Earl Thomas, or JPP?
