The past two years we've had injuries to at least one back; we would have been in trouble last year if not for Ivory when Ingram was lost for the season.

I'm thinking we stick with Ivory and the 4 back system for awhile...

Ivory is going nowhere. The Saints will keep their 3 back system leaving someone out. Ivory and Thomas each have distinct abilities that make them key for specific games and with Ingram being a rookie still, he needs to sit behind the two backs some.

4 back system, don't forget Sproles

I was referring to suiting up 3 like they usually do and have one back inactive. I should of specified.

Ivory being on the PUP list to start the season and then Ingram going to IR made suiting 3 easy this past season.

No telling how they will handle the rotation this season...

It will likely depend on who we face that day. Who knows. I'm sure they can come up with some formula to figure it out. Each of them are key. I just don't see Ivory going anywhere anytime soon.

From what I've seen from Ingram, he is the weakest link right now.

I agree I wouldn't get rid of him for a 7th rounder

No way he is only worth a 7th. 5 yd avg and a bruiser. Cap hit is next to nothing. Browns would give up a 4th in a heartbeat. With that being the case he won't be going anywhere!

For an injury prone part time one-dimensional running back who had about 12 good games in his entire two year career?

I don't think they're that dumb.
