Jimmy was a great player for the Saints and I appreciate his contribution. However this is one of the only times in the Sean Payton era that they traded a player at the perfect time. Too bad they couldn't get anything for Ingram.

Greg is a solid vet that will be were he is suppose to be. this is a huge deal this year given all the new faces we will probably have at WR this year

Ingram almost rushed for 1,000 yards last year, behind a banged up O line.

You may want to grab your popcorn and enjoy 2015 before you go booting him off the team...

I would not be hurt if they signed him. At worst he gets the Bailey treatment.

Re: WR Greg Jennings visiting Saints

Cool, nothing wrong with visiting. I sometimes visit people. Sometimes...

Anyway, I'm a little surprised by the enthusiasm of this potential signing. I guess I'll be in the minority today. He didn't seem like a guy who had much left before he went to Minnesota, and when he got there he did less than I expected. This would be someone to pick up if you're a desperate team looking to add a name. And as for locker room presence, that's all fine and good, but it really takes a lot of those guys to make a difference.

He might come in and make a few plays here and there, but we already have guys who can do that. I remember way back in 2000, when I was just a little too young to know better, I got all excited when we signed Jake Reed, because I knew he was a really good player for the Vikings. He was already washed up by this time, but I didn't follow other teams closely enough at that time to realize it. He looked like a dinosaur out there in the short time he played for us, and then broke his leg if I remember correctly.

I see Jennings in a similar mold.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

How much money have the Saints paid him over the years for that one good season, then tremendously over paid him again? He would need a few more 1000 yard seasons at no pay just to earn the money he's already been paid.

You obviously cannot forgive the fact that he attended Alabama. Your bias is clearly clouding your judgment because Ingram has been outstanding when given the opportunity.
