As much as I like Mason, he's a poor man's Portis/Betts. It would be fun to have a return guy/change of pace back who is a threat to take it to the house any time they touch the ball. Moss has been the only real speed threat on our team for a while.

On April 27, 2008, Alridge signed a contract with the Denver Broncos as a free agent.[5] He was put on the injured reserve by the Broncos following the 53-man cut, ending his season. The Broncos waived him on February 11, 2009.

The one thing that people don't know is that he was a WR in Houston (college) before converting to RB. He could definitely make the team.
