Re: What would you be willing to pay Ingram?
 

Well keeping in mind that we need more help in other areas(LB, DT, OL, CB) & factoring in the tremendous depth at RB in this years draft, i gotta say 4yrs/$14M with a highside of 4/16. Very comaparable to Ben Tate's situation last year which landed him in that range. Health is the biggest factor.

I just cant see the Saints overpaying him though.

Draft Options:

1. Todd Gurley - Georgia
2. Melvin Gordon - Wisconsin
3. Tevin Coleman - Indiana
4. Jay Ajayi - Boise St.
5. David Cobb - Minnesota
6. Ameer Abdullah - Nebraska
7. TJ Yeldon - Alabama
8. Duke Johnson - Miami
9. David Johnson - Northern Iowa
10. Cameron Artis-Payne - Auburn
11. Javorius "Buck" Allen - USC
12. Jeremy Langford - Michigan St.
13. Mike Davis - South Carolina
14. Dominique Brown - Louisville
15. Terrance Magee - LSU

& So many others like Karlos williams & Matt Jones, etc.

I'd really love to get David Johnson from Northern Iowa. Looked great in the Senior Bowl & resembles Leveon bell in appearance(6'1 225) & play style. Can do it all...

Dont have to draft him high either, looks to be available somewhere in the 5th round with a highside of round 4.

good draft class plus a ton of FA's (young, old, big/small) means we should get him at our price, or someone else at our price.
As long as we have Brees, we are not going to pay marquee prices for a RB

Re: What would you be willing to pay Ingram?
 

The ball is firmly in teams court with RBs this year.
Murray
Bere en
Matthews
Gore
Spiller
Ingram
Moreno
Helu
Bradshaw
Ridley
Polk
Rice
McFadden
Asiata
Forsett

Thats before the draft
Then add
Gurley
Gordon
Johnson
Coleman
Yeldon
Abdullah
Davis
Ajayi
Langford
Robinson
Johnson

Now you have teams cutting players
Peterson
Lynch (especially after last night)


Id like to see him stay but anything over 3.5ml is pushing it. 4ml on Ingram means 4ml that could go toward Wisniewski,Hudson,Worilds,Maxwell,Thurmond etc

Vereen was my under the radar signing but after his perfomance in SB victory I think that price is just too much for us at this point. Dude was spectacular as receiver. Had one great one handed grab.
