My problem all along with the drafting of Mark Ingram has not been the need (with the injuries to RBs that prior season), but the need to trade multiple draft choices to move into the NFL draft 1st round to draft a running back that was never considered a "can't miss" prospect. If you want to look at all of the Saints' success at signing free agent RBs after the draft (PT, Ivory, now Robinson?), why not also understand that there were plenty of opportunities to draft a rookie running back without giving up multiple picks and moving into round one. In my opinion it was a mistake then, and (in my opinion) the Saints are still hurting from losing an extra pick in that draft.
