If you are unavailable to help your team, it is irrelevant.

And, cold medicine my butt.

They're all on cold medicine...which also increases strength...I can't think of the name of that cold medicine lmao

Mark is 28...you're going to want to go with a 3 year contract.

I think a good contract offer for Ingram would be similar to the deal Lamar Miller signed with the Texans.

4 yrs / $26m ($14m guaranteed)

Gives him an average salary of $6.5m which is an upgrade from his current $4m/year.

We won't be resigning him. Enjoy this ride. This is from the person who said we would draft him. I love the guy but have to take emotions out of it. Being stuck with a 31 yr old RB is a very poor decision. It rarely works out therefore unwise.

Affordable... and would he take it?

There are two teams who are currently slated to have $100m+ in cap space next offseason and they both have big needs at RB: the Colts and the Jets.

The crown jewel of free agent RB’s will obviously be Le’Veon Bell (barring a trade this season). Mark Ingram and Tevin Coleman will be in the next tier. Will a team who misses out on Bell overpay for Ingram as a consolation prize? Only time will tell.

Thanks Mark. See ya

I think it depends a lot on how Scott is developing.

I'd pay him what he's making now with an adjustment for inflation (aka the salary cap)...

I'd rather take a slight hit at RB and make real gains with a real cornerback opposite Lattimore and shore up the offensive line...
