"Mark Ingram to the Cowboys"

"The Dallas Cowboys are 6-1 thanks to the gutsy effort of running back DeMarco Murray, who is on pace for an unsustainable amount of carries, a number that would surely break the NFL single-season record of 416 set by Larry Johnson in 2007. They need another powerful running back, and the New Orleans Saints have one who has largely underachieved to this point in his career but is ready to break out. Yes, the Cowboys should deal a mid-round pick to the New Orleans Saints for Mark Ingram.

We'd love to see Ingram in a power offense and behind a great offensive line. We'd also like to see Murray get a breather down the stretch. This satisfies both teams and allows New Orleans to bolster a rebuilding effort that could already be underway. -- Conor Orr "

Now if the saints were to do that they would be announcing to the world that they have given up on the season. Why trade him for a mid-round draft pick?

I'd take a conditional 3rd, if he performs well it turns into a 2nd. We're deep at RB (assuming PT returns in a couple of weeks) and we could use the draft picks since we'll be bumping the cap the next few years.
