Below is the Melvin Gordon contract that Denver signed him too. Instead of signing Gurley I would have pursued Melvin Gordon. Seems a better investment over one knee Gurley.
Like you, the UGA Dawg inside me is also smiling, but still I have strong concerns.

CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports the Broncos signed free agent RB Melvin Gordon.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports it's a two-year, $16 million deal with $13.5 million guaranteed. The Broncos could certainly use an additional weapon or two on offense for second-year QB Drew Lock, but addressing the RB position is curious considering Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman were largely fine in 2019. MGIII is certainly the better pass-down RB from the group, although Lindsay (4.9 YPC) and Freeman (3.9) have had similar-to-better success over their careers on a per-rush basis compared to Gordon (4). This is a complete mess as far as fantasy is concerned, as a committee backfield is incredibly likely unless we see an additional move take place.
