no to Mark Ingram? i will sacrifice a virgin if we draft him
do you guys honestly think that ben jarvis green ellis and danny woodhead would be having the same success if it wasn't for #12 under center???
please tell me you know that bradys presence makes a TON of difference in that running game...teams can't just load up to stop the run cause brady will carve their hearts out
same thing i said before...give me tom brady and i'll take an average talent at rb...heck give me a top 12 nfl qb an i think i'm ok with it...til then **** that
It's widely known in this draft there is tons of depth in the RB class. There seems to be great value at this position even into the 5th round!!!
Why in the hell would we spend our 1st round pick on someone that, in the open field, looks ALOT like the last RB we drafted in the 1st round. I'm not saying i don't like the kid. He seems like an upstanding guy and has the tools to be good at the next level. But a 1st round pick IMO is insane for someone known NOT to hit the homerun in the open field.
If we draft him at 15 i will NOT do a dance. There are 10-12 guys in this class that look like they can contribute as much if not more than Ingram.
This is how i feel exactly. This is EXACTLY why i say we should take a QB at 15 instead of a RB.
And yes, the Packers didn't have a single drafted RB on their roster this season and won the superbowl. Again this proves my point that we need a QB at 15.
I would have no problem drafting Ingram if:
1. We don't like the QB's on the board, and we were unable to trade up for Newton.
2. We were unable to trade away our 1st this year for a 1st and 2nd next year.
3. We do not draft a QB in the later rounds.
If we're basically stuck with the QB's we have this year (it'd suck), we'd have to make a full-fledged blitz for one of the top guys next year. Ingram - especially going into his 2nd year - would be a huge aid to a rookie QB in 2012.
Whether he can hit the homerun or not is a pretty moot point, he can find holes other RB's can't, meaning he may not break that long run as much as a Chris Johnson would, he probably is going to atleast be presented in that situation more often because he can set him self up. HIs 10 yard split was the best in this group, meaning his initial burst only compliments his versatility, strength and vision. It isn't fair to compare any back with him.
. . when Ingram is making people miss and finding creases for us and trucking people over, we are all going to be excited for years to come. He is that good, don't look at the 40 time, doesn't take away from the numerous times I have seen him play.

I honestly don't believe Ingram is going to be "trucking over" a lot of NFL players at his weight. I guess i just get the feeling it's Ronnie Brown 2.0
My want for a QB at 15 taints my ability to appreciate a RB that high. If we can get a QB at 15 and then two good RB's in the later rounds that will produce for us i feel like it's a win win.
Mark Ingram was told he ran 4.47/4.53 (unofficial) during his two runs at Bama's pro day...

This post is just stupid...plain and simple.
Stop bargain shopping...
IF you want a RB go get Mark.
IF you want a QB, go get the best one.
Stop saying STUPID crap ,like ,well we
can get the same value in later rounds.
NO YOU CAN'T!!!
