I think he'll silence most of his critics this year. I'm sure there will be some that expect him to be Adrian Peterson, but thats a bit unrealistic.
I know, another diamond-in-the-rough RB passed on by Detroit ... do you know they could have drafted Ray Rice ('08) also? ... and I agree, Ingram is ready for a breakout year and by that I mean he's ready to live up to his rep in college ... runs between the tackles, decent hands, great compliment to PT & Sproles, NFL pedigree ... the Saints running game is unstoppable as it is, and then you factor in the O/Line? ... and besides, Ingram looks like he's having fun in training camp ... a happy running back is a productive running back.
