Ingram's New Contract

ChrisXVI · 10-19-2018, 05:26 PM

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.

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.
