Elways Expects Moreno, Decker And Woodyward To Test Market

Broncos executive vice president of football operations/general manager John Elway said he expects all of the Broncos’ unrestricted free agents, including running back Knowshon Moreno, wide receiver Eric Decker and linebacker Wesley Woodyard, to test the market before considering if they would re-sign with the team, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

Elway said Decker, in particular, will see what his value is elsewhere. Especially with tight end Julius Thomas and wide receiver Demaryius Thomas, as well as wide receiver Wes Welker, up for free agency after the 2014 season.

“I think they have to hit the market, the market sets those, especially where you look where we are and what we have coming up,” Elway said.

“Both Thomas’ are up next year. And Wes is, too. So all that plays into it. We’d love to have Eric back, but he’s made he comment he’s like to be back. He’s got to do what’s best for Eric, too, and vice versa. That’s why we go through this process.”
