Not trying to be a smart ass but if the thread title had been updated to include the option in fact did not get picked up I wouldn't have made another post. I looked around and all I saw was this thread with the same title it had 3 weeks Ago or whenever it was started. I had already read about 4 pages of it. Didn't know it had been updated.
I mean no disrespect.

This is totally a head game on the Saints part. They wouldn't let him go but they will try and make Mark think that so they see what he's really made of

He has to break 1000 yards and 7 or better TDs to get into the top 13 RBs. He has averaged 3 TDs and 500 yards.

Jamal Charles 1200 yards and 12 TDs 4.7m/year 13th highest average salary.

That'll only happen with an Ingram focused offense. Same thing as saying that's not gonna happen with the Sean n Drew show. Even though RB centered offenses make it to the playoffs and even Superbowl every year... every other year... every decade... every...

I don't see how it's a head game. It's a money game.
In no universe is the 50th best player at his position worth top 10 money.
The 5th year option was easily double what he is currently worth
