Loomis on the prospect of drafting Ingram

Neaux, Neaux, Neaux...

Round 1 picks should never be used on a RB that, at best, have a 7-8 year shelf life on'em...

I Loved Deuce, but...

Deuce McAllister, RB at NFL.com

Eight (8) Total Years with four (4) productive years (over 1000 RuYd)

Good point, however...

4 very productive years is still better than our other 1st round picks this century... Williams, Sullivan, Stallworth, Grant, Brown, Bush and Meachem.

If we get 6-8 productive years out of Ingram then we freaking stole him at pick 24.

I'm with you but in this case, after around pick 15 most of the potential immediate impact defensive picks are gone. Notice everyone is throwing a bunch of defensive names around. There is no clear cut starter out of that bunch, just a bunch of projects. Heyward looks good but even he admitted he needs work. Ingram on the other hand, as long as he stays healthy he's going to have an impact from the start.
