He'd never last enugh games to become a 1,000 yard rusher, and fumbles would probably land him on the bench.

but ingram, doesnt really fit and he wasnt shy about saying he wasnt thrilled with his role in our offense. he feels that he could and should be an every down back, and i agree. so let him go somewhere else and do it. then maybe we can give ivory more money and keep him as well as thomas who i think comes due at the end of this year.

Doesn't fit? I disagree completely. If I had to pick a RB that doesn't fit this offense, Ivory would top that list.
Ingram never said he wasn't thrilled with his role, he said he thinks he can be an everydown RB in this league, meaning running, short yardage, receiving and 3rd down. And Ingram isn't making much money at all.
PT is signed thru 2014.
