Ivory draws 2nd round tender

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'd let him go for a 4/5th. We have little cap room and bigger needs than 2ml on a RB that had 119 carries in 2 years....

It's not the 119 carries. Did you watch the games when he came in? Pure energy! He changed the attitude of the whole offense. Imagine what another team would be willing to give for that. Zona depth chart loks like ours did when Mario Bates was our #1. Don't under sell.

That is exactly my point. Ingram may need a guy like this. Why give him up for a 4/5? He would be worth keeping if he stayed on Ingrams hills

We are already paying out 8.2ml to 3 RB's.If money wasnt a issue then keep him.But for me its either keep him and trade Ingram or trade Ivory.2ml is too much when we need a depth over both lines and in the secondary.

Most teams have more than that tied up in one RB. It is a blessing to owe that little.

But most teams run the ball more than us and don't have over 30ml locked up in QB and Guards.

Re: Ivory draws 2nd round tender

And don't forget you've got Cadet, who is not THAT bad, as a diamond in the rough, and he is paid like $2 over rock-bottom league minimum, and happy to get it! Loomis could shake the couch cushions upside down and find a way to pay Cadet. So there's that too. It's really 8.5 for 5 RBs!
