MJD vs Moreno

29 Years Old vs 26 Years Old
9th year in the NFL vs 6th year in the NFL
2233 total touches in 114 games (19,587/game) vs 1002 touches in 60 games (16,700/game)
4,5YDS/carry +8,6 YDS/catch vs 4,1YDS/carry + 8,9YDS/catch
13,1YDS/OFF Touch vs 13,0YDS/OFF touch
79 OFF TD's/114 games = 0,692TD/game vs 35 OFF TD's/60 games = 0,583TD/game

Less mileage on Moreno.
3 years younger.
Same YDS/Touch on offense.
Probably cheaper.

I would go, at the right price (2-2,5M/YEAR) with Moreno. Keep Miller and Gillislee, sign Moreno, cut Thomas and draft a RB in either the 2nd or 3rd round this year.

Thoughts?
 
Sign a vet RB, draft a RB in the mid rounds, and let Miller and Thomas compete fora spot in the CFL.
 
If we get either one of them I could see us passing on a RB maybe until the 5th or 6th round in the draft.
 
I think he might be foreign and they might use commas for decimal points.

Either way I'm pretty sure Knowshon benefited from having Peyton Manning and MJD suffered from having Henne and Gabbert... and you don't need commas or periods to understand that.
 
I wasn't sure if MJD was good at pass protection, since I don't really watch Jags games, so I looked it up:

According to the number crunches, he's actually been near the top of the list in efficiency. I've been hearing a lot that Moreno is one of the most proficient at blocking, but interestingly according to these numbers, not really.
I'm not a stats guy so beats me if I know what I'm looking at his right, wrong, garbage, gold, etc.

I'd be fine with MJD or Moreno, though I think personally MJD is better despite the older age. I probably wouldn't spend a whole lot more on him though, as a RB in the draft could easily see a lot of playing time as well, paired with Miller and the potential vet.

Thanks for being so open to other cultures... I am canadian. We do, sometimes, use commas for decimals. Some people just aren't as open to the world as others...

The question remains the same, with points or commas... MJD or Moreno?

Thank you to those who understood my weird culture and answered :brewskis:
 
Keep in mind that Broncos didn't draft 1 RB to replace Moreno, they drafted 2.

He was 3rd string on that team prior to Manning making him useful.
 
Didnt MJD knock he **** out of Shawn Merriman a few years ago? The video has to be somewhere.
