re: Is Joe Addai's career over?

Manning told a great story about Addai early in his rookie year.
One of the most important jobs for a rb in the Colts offense was blocking. Manning said he would make sure to remind the rookie about blocking schemes on plays. After a very short time (training camp?) Addai quietly approched Manning and let him know he was secure with his blocking responsibilities and that was that.
His blocking doesn't show up in stats, but it made him valuable to Manning.

Exactly. All business with a team first approach.

I'd like to see the Broncos give him an opportunity to reunite with Peyton Manning. When not on the IR, Addai is a much more reliable back than Knowshon Moreno.
