The draft is a crap shoot but it has not been for us the last two years. We have done quite well. It's not a crap shoot if you have good staff who can evaluate talent and needs. It is why we are in the position we are in right now. This is not the Jets, Browns staff here.

That's apples and oranges. Peterson wasn't an established leader, nor has the ability to execute Payton's entire offense as does Ingram. Ingram has become an integral part of our offense. I'm sure everyone here recognizes what has been missing these first four weeks.

No way in Hell if it could compromise winning the Lombardi again this year.

Win Now!

We are winning now. Without MI.



I am however glad he is here. I would have preferred Boston to have blown up but that did not materialize. Teams are so desperate right now. We could have got a 2nd for him easy.


I do know this though, the same people enjoying bashing me before the season even started of considering trading MI will be the same people complaining and crying when our draft sucks next year and the intoxication of this season is long gone.

I seriously doubt that. We're going to be celebrating the Super Bowl win that Ingram helped us get.

With this defense? Unless they clean it up, one and done hangover. But you are free to comeback here and complain about draft picks next year and I know you will. Cry like a baby on our meager picks and blame our season on a weak draft class and still claiming Meredith is GONNA be an awesome slot WR after gaining 140 yds when he was suppose to be the WR2.

I am probably in the camp by myself, when I say after reviewing all last years games, I believe Ingram was taking steroids. He was puffy and the rage looked obvious to me. I've see players who dope and I firmly believe that Ingram was taking a banned supplement. If he comes back strong, still angry and hasn't lost a lot of mass then I'll eat my crow.
I love Ingram. Don't get me wrong. Roll Tide! And don't get dinged up!

He was tested during the season and never tested positive for anything. It wasn't until after the final playoff game that he had a failed test. Cris Carter, a very close friend of the family, confirmed that it was a banned cold medicine that triggered the test. It absolutely was not steroids.

I get regular steroid injections for some cervical issues and they stay in your system for quite some time. To have any real "positive" physical impact from steroids you would have to really load up on them.

Me cry about our draft picks? Boy, have you got the wrong person. I NEVER cry about draft picks. I celebrate each and every one whether we have two or twelve. You clearly don't know me.

:D

Besides, we're going 19-0 next year. ;)

As for Meredith ... all I ever said was he wasn't a wasted signing and would be our slot receiver for at least eight games. Barring injury, I don't see a problem with that. Hopefully he'll have positive impact the remainder of the Super Bowl run.

:bng:

The jury is still out on Merideth too. He is not 100 percent yet so he very well could be our number 2 when all is said and done.
