You also stated before the season that Ingram was going to be traded.

I stated he should be traded if someone wants to over pay. Many teams would right now. We would have if any of the RB's we tried out would have worked but none did.

I still stand by Meredith not being the WR2 which I did state before the season. He will never again replicate his one good season in Chicago because that season was garbage time.

Ingram was not going to be traded, for what? To whom?

No kidding. Just some whacked out fantasy of Beast's that he was wishing for all off season.

That's fine. I was told on here the same on when I said we would push to draft him.

These teams get offers all the time. Unless you are on the staff how would you know. Well, you do not. Neither do I. What i do know is RB's around the league are going down and teams are desperate. If any of the backs we had did anything it was an option. That's all I said.

We make our money in the draft. Not signing Veterans. Our draft next year sucks. In about 6 months that will be the reality. Limited picks and no Ingram.

Meredith won't produce anywhere near expectations. He'll never be a WR1 or even WR2 again. It was a season of garbage time in Chicago.

I want him to remind me what the bet was. I said he wouldn’t start 8 games. Guido said he would be the number 2 or 3 receiver and have a significant role.
So far he’s been invisible with the exception of the Washington game. Everyone was open for that one.
He caught on TD pass earlier in the season and has fumbled.

I don't want him to fail. If he does great the rest of the way that is fine as long as we win. I made a prediction way before the season started he would not amount to much. Certainly not a WR2 as the media was chattering about.

It was based off of watching him in every game in Chicago. I watched all of them and there was not much there but whatever. He is a safety valve. He can grab it if wide open most of the time. He's not going to be fighting for the ball or getting massive YAC.

Yes. All I said was would be better than Snead and would start at least 8 games. You indicated he would remain injured or benched and then not play that many.

Why the hate? He has the third most snaps at WR since he became active. I see no reason why that should change short of injury, which would win you the bet.

Once again, a lost bet from you will prove to be advantageous to the Saints' success.

Meredith was never signed to be the "WR2". He was signed to replace Snead who became less than nothing. He was signed to play slot. He has already outproduced Snead's last entire season. He has most of the season left. I know you feel he is "garbage". Maybe you will be right, which I'm sure will make your day, but most of us have FAR more faith than you ... or at least faith in positive outcomes.

And there was never any chance we would have traded Ingram. Of course, you'll keep believing in that unicorn, as well.
