Murray evidently knows the business and used the last game as springboard, I can't really fault him. He was better than Ingram and was never really compensated accordingly.

It was really a matter of timing. Had the Broncos not lost their RB1 to a season ending injury on Sunday, Murray would have likely still been on the Saints practice squad. Murray would have been foolish to turn down any Denver offer since he could make far more than the Saints could offer him as a backup to Kamara. As it was he did turn down an offer from the Saints to leave. I'm curious as to what his contract is going to look like. Denver has among the most cap space available in the league.
