Knowshon Moreno signs one year deal with Dolphins

The Dolphins have upgraded at running back by agreeing with Knowshon Moreno on a one-year deal. Some tidbits about him, some of which we posted last week:

### Here is what Pro Football Focus said about him: The No. 1 running back, almost by default, comes from this year’s Super Bowl runner up. Knowshon Moreno is the only back on this list without injury, workload, or age concerns. This last season Moreno proved that he can produce effectively in an every-down role over the course of the season. In terms of pure ability, there are probably six or seven free agents I’d prefer, but none are proven commodities at this point in time. At just 27years old, and with just 992 career touches to his name, Moreno is sure to have at least a few more productive seasons in his legs before the dreaded running back decline sets in.

2013 was by far Moreno’s most accomplished as a pro. He set career highs in snaps (724), rushing yards (1,038), receiving yards (548), touchdowns (13), and PFF grade (+9.9). His 241 carries were more the most Moreno’s had in a season since his rookie year and his 60 receptions were a career high by a wide margin. With his rushing (+4.2 grade), pass catching (+7.0 grade), and adequate pass blocking (0.0 grade) ability, Moreno provides the ability to plug and play 600+ snaps immediately.

Seriously, I don't think Miller could break a tackle from my 8 year old brother. I am being perfectly serious.

That's true but if you open a lane for him he will be 10 yards downfield before he's touched

Agreed. I never really wanted Moreno, would have preferred Tre Mason in the 2nd round. But it is hard to complain about 1 year prove it deals because they carry essentially 0 risk.

I think they still will draft a RB, but this was a good addition to the backfield.

Storm Johnson anyone? Seems like a good late rounder to me
 
So now you dump D.Thomas and Thigpen, sign Blount to a two year deal and let Gillisie take over ST's.. Oh yeah!!!! And then we don't draft any RB in this draft.. Bam!
