Mark Ingram looks ahead to uncertain future: 'I'd love to be a Saint'
We will see how it plays out when big numbers with $ in front of them come out!
"I'd love to be a Saint," Ingram said. "But it's a business. So we'll see what happens, see what they're talking about in the front office and just go from there." The market value of NFL running backs has fallen in recent years, but Ingram is only 25 and presumably has plenty of mileage left on his legs. The Saints aren't known for spending big money on backs, and they've developed inexpensive options like undrafted free agent Khiry Robinson.

"But it's a business" is always code for I'm taking the contract with the most guaranteed money. And the NFL is a sport where players' careers end suddenly, so I cannot fault him for that.

He's been unhappy in a time share, he's been labeled a bust for the draft pick investment, and he's had his flareups with Coach Payton...
Don't see him returning if all things are equal with other suitors... |

All speculation Ingram would benefit from a better O Line just as much as Brees would. |

Too easy to find undrafted RB's... Best of luck Mark, but we have other more pressing needs to spend money on.
