It seems like the general consensus is to take him if available. Otherwise it's BPA.
EDIT: He would be the best player available.

I will say this, Miami has bigger concerns, mainly QB. Henne is a walking band-aid, and Thigpen is a career backup. Getting Ingram won't help that situation. They already have a decent ground attack, older yes, but not completely washed up. We may not get Ingram but I think he will drop a lot further than people think.

Miami is the only team I could see grabbing him before we would get the opportunity. QB is a big need for them, but at 15 Newton and Gabbert would be gone and I dont see Locker going that high.

yup - something about him reminds me of emmitt. he's not the fastest, the biggest or the quickest, but he has good vision and he doesn't go down after the first hit. what made emmitt so good is that no one could ever get a good clean shot on him. i'm not sure if that's the same with ingram.
