I like the trade, but it bothers me that it had to be with Seattle. Wish it was an AFC team. It also bothers me as to what we had to give up to get Graham signed to that contract. We sure could have used Sproles at least last year.

Did you even watch any of the games last year? How about the playoff game in Philadelphia the year before...

Ingram's switch has been flipped since then

From a strictly talent/immediste impact standpoint I'd say sesttle got the better trade. That being said, I think the Saints benefited most.

Also, don't new draft picks usually take a few years to really settle in? How's that going to help for this year?
Ingram was 36 yards shy of 1000 yards rushing, with a 4.3 average (second only to demarco Murray) and 9 TD's, that's a pretty solid season to say he missed 2-3 games with a broken hand.

Ingram had a monster year last year considering he was splitting carrys and was injured several games. He averaged near 5 yds a carry. Doesn't get much better than that.

That was one hell of a first post. Welcome to the board!

I really meant it when I said I don't remember Ingram running much :) Nearly 1000 yards? I had no idea it was that high!

Ingram has run for around 1100 yards in his last 15 games(playoff 2013)

He ran 225 times for 964 yards. Do the math. He also missed 3 games and was still at 1000 yards.

Although as a seahawks fan you will already know what happens when teams get physical with Graham at the line, you did it in the playoffs and he completely disappeared.
Or the legion of boom will toughen him up; hard to say. He is going to be tested real fast because these guys will make his life miserable if he has a soft attitude.

OMG it just might be a WIN WIN for both teams LOL.
It is funny how when a trade happens one team has to win and one lose. To be honest I didn't think Graham was tough enough to be on this team but perhaps practicing against them everyday might be the best thing for him.
