Colston fumbles.
Moore is constantly injured.
Graham is constantly injured.
P.T. was the last of our RB's to be injured.
Hell, even that CHUMP Hartley has been injured since Ivory.

Alaska

I would not trade Ivory, Ingram didn't shine prior to Bounty Gate so why trade Ivory. with his YPC what's the reason? PT moved out Pittman why can't Ingram be done the same?

I guess the idea behind that move would be the fact that his contract is up at the end of this season, and so if they don't think they can re-sign him - why wouldn't they trade him in order to get something in return?!

I think he's a RFA so we can slap a late round tender on him and keep him cheap or get a pick.

I forget what the tender levels are now.

Is he any better than any Alabama rb we could get?

I'm convinced he is.

Yeah, you're right. I thought that he was an UFA, but after your comment I checked it again, and he is indeed a RFA, so he could be had on the cheap once again.

It is difficult to get injured when you aren't playing because of fumbling, lack of blocking etc... but if he had played in the last 2 years the statement would be holding water

To bad he couldn't play defense, might be worth trying.....probably couldn't be much worse. Explore all options.

I bet he could power rush a QB.
