Same with Mark Ingram, why make an investment of not only a first round pick, but additional pick to move back and get him?!?

Payton is the best in the business in game management, but I question the personnel strategy...

Is Carr an improvement from what we have on the team??? Then let these younger players, including Robinson, have more snaps to develop...

You would prefer we play players based on draft round/investment than performance in practice? Being picked in the first round does not guarantee you a seat at the table, it only gains you entry to the dining hall, you have to prove your self before you are allowed at the table.

I for one feel better about a coaching staff that puts the best preforming player of the week on the field come game day than the one getting the most compensation.

If players are not making the most of the plays that they are given on the field it is on them.
