Why Melvin Gordon when you already had Phillip Lindsay?
"I know there’s people going, 'Why do you need another horse?'" Broncos general manager John Elway said in a team website interview Wednesday. "Well, when you have an opportunity for Melvin Gordon to come in here, we felt it was an addition to the team. He’s a guy that obviously has had a lot of success in this league. Scored a lot of touchdowns and has caught the ball a ton.
"So we feel like with Melvin as well as Phillip that we’ve got a great one-two punch and we’ll only get better in the backfield."
