Scouts Inc.'s Matt Williamson examines the state of the running back corps for each NFC South team.

The Saints’ running back corps experienced a drop-off in production last season compared to the team’s Super Bowl-winning 2009 campaign.

To remedy that issue, the Saints traded their 2012 first-round pick to get back into the first round to grab the best back in this past draft, Alabama’s Mark Ingram.

But a committee approach does seem inevitable unless Ingram simply takes the NFL by storm. There is a lot to like about Ingram. He has true workhorse qualities, which is rare in a back nowadays. He runs with power, leverage and has tremendous competitive qualities. Ingram wants the football when it matters most and is the type of runner who can put the opponent away. He also has some ability and upside in the passing game, which is obviously a must in this Drew Brees-led offense.
