I think we'll have Ingram and Robinson as our thumpers and Payton's got his eyes on one or more in the draft who could all be significant upgrades as a 3rd down back. Probably a small back with blazing speed and great hands. I am convinced this will happen because as of now we still need PT on 3rd down. Who fits this description in this years draft? And can we get him in RD 2,3 or 4?

What you are describing is what we have used for the last several years. It is getting stale. Defenses have it figured out. It's time to get physical in the run game and Ingram is the one that can do it. He also proved he could catch the ball out of the backfield.
