Broncos Continue to Add Depth at RB

If you asked who was the running back for the Denver Broncos in 2008 many people would find themselves coming up with nothing. The Broncos had 7 different running backs to start a game for them last year due to injuries. A few of these backs were not even on NFL rosters at the beginning of last season. The Broncos signed veteran LaMont Jordan on Wednesday. Jordan has had only one season with over 1,000 yards rushing in his 8 year career. He has power and can catch balls out of the backfield and should make a nice compliment to smaller backs, Buckhalter and Arrington, who were signed earlier in the free agency period. The Broncos also have last year's draft pick Ryan Torian. Torian broke his elbow and when he returned he torn his ACL and was lost for the season. If Torian can make a good recovery the Broncos could have a solid running back by committee system next year.
