Why did we draft #22 again and give up the picks to get him?

Look at it this way, had we not drafted him, we would have lost the pick the following year, due to Bounty Gate...

Because we had zero healthy RB's.

...nobody seems to remember that at the time of the Ingram draft, Pierre Thomas was on crutches, no one knew for sure if his ankle surgery was successful or not. It was NOT a given that Pierre would be back to his old self on the field, at all. At the same time they knew Bush was all but gone to another team; and Ivory was wearing a boot and could not run AT ALL after his Lisfranc surgery. They had NOBODY in the backfield in March that was 100% guaranteed to be there in the fall of 2011.

Because of the Seattle playoff game loss. That was the only reason.

Because we didn't learn from #34.
