Re: AP is close to deal with Saints

So if we replace a player with a better player, to me that's a good move. I don't think the FO would throw huge money at him and why would they?
As far as Ingram is concerned yeah he might get a little salty with AP taking away some carries but Ingram is at his best when he's mad. Ingram has played the best football of his career with Hightower there to push him. So you'd have Mark Ingram running angry and AP coming off the bench in relief. That would be a pretty solid one two punch. And if Ingram gets hurt then you have Adrian Peterson to replace him with.
Where is the downside???
Completely agreed.
