Elway: "We're hopeful Peyton comes back. We want him back. He has not given me a definitive answer."

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 2m2 minutes ago

Elway: "The bottom line is that I don't like to get into anybody's contract ... I believe that he'll back and he'll be back with us."

Lindsay Jones ‏@bylindsayhjones 36s36 seconds ago

Elway says he believes the Kubiak offense is "very helpful" for an older QB. He knows, cause he played in it in late 30s.

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 41s42 seconds ago

Elway: "Our bottom line is to build through the draft and then add through free agency."

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 13s13 seconds ago

Elway: "I think Cody (Latimer) had a good year." Says it's hard to adjust to he offense, but team has "high expectations" for him.

Andrew Mason ‏@MaseDenver 3m3 minutes ago

Elway: "We're setting what our process is going to be" re: free agents. Team is setting priorities & budget, he said.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Like Head Coach Gary Kubiak, Executive Vice President and General Manager John Elway wants Peyton Manning to return for a fourth Broncos season and 18th in the NFL, and believes the future Hall of Fame quarterback will come back.

"We're hopeful that Peyton comes back and we want him back. As I said after the season, we wanted him back -- and we still want him back," Elway said Thursday as he met the media for the first time since announcing the hiring of Kubiak on Jan. 21.

"He has not given me a definitive answer exactly what he wants to do, but we're hopeful he is going to come back."

INDIANAPOLIS — Julius Thomas shouldn't feel isolated.

Plenty of Bronco standouts will join him on the free-agent market come March 10.

Terrance Knighton shouldn't take the lack of serious negotiation so personally.

His agent will meet with either Broncos general manager John Elway or contract guru Mike Sullivan here this week during the NFL scouting combine, as will the representatives of receiver Demaryius Thomas, left guard Orlando Franklin and safety Rahim Moore.

INDIANAPOLIS — General manager John Elway wants a balanced offense regardless of his quarterback. He removed all doubt Thursday, making it clear he wants a fullback on the Denver roster, echoing coach Gary Kubiak's desire.

"My thing is that to be really effective in the running game, you have to run the fullback," Elway said. "I think to be really effective, you have to have another package."

Kubiak said he is trying to locate a fullback during this week's NFL scouting combine. Juwan Thompson, who made last season's Denver roster as an undrafted rookie, provides a potential in-house candidate, Elway said.

rest - plus more than the fullback comments

:laugh:
Is John saying Schofield didn't play because there weren't enough uniforms?

Maybe what he meant is if a player is inactive, they are not in a uniform. On the Broncos' roster he is #79

I don't care what he meant, or if it was tongue in cheek. It made me laugh. :D
