For a 1st round pick, Ingram is a bust. He's missed way too many games and overall hasn't performed like a 1st round pick at RB should. He's averaging 639 rushing yards per season, his best season ever was 964 yards and he's ran for 3,195 yards in 62 games played which means he's averaging a whopping 51.5 yards per game (that he actually plays in) with only 26 rushing TDs. When you look at the stats, nothing indicates Ingram has been a "success" as a 1st round pick in any of these stats.

Besides the injuries, he's also been playing in a unfavorable offense for his skill set. The Saints running game is at its best with a scat back like Sproles. For short yard situations, they just need a cheap bruiser. Ingram would've been much better off in a more traditional offense.

Stop defending him. Ingram has not panned out. Whatever the many reasons, he hasn't panned out.

He was taken only 8 spots ahead of Dexter McCluster.

Alabama will have the most busts.
Alabama will also have the most future stars.

Because Alabama will have the most picks.

Ragland should play in a 3.4.

Henry will go earlier than some think.

Nkemdiche is my pick as well. Supposedly he has completely failed all interviews. Kiper or Mcshay was talking about it this morning.

Lol saying that Yeldon has been replaced is completely incorrect. No idea where you got that from.

Why pick Mills? He is one of the more pro ready prospects.

Leonard Floyd maybe is the biggest boom or bust prospect in the draft, I tend towards bust like Mingo who Floyd is compared mostly too.

Floyd has experience at 3.4 OLB though. That's why I hesitate to compare him to Mingo.

I can only see it going one of two ways for him. He either gets his shite together, slides enough that he ends up somewhere good, and then is the steal of the draft. Or he gets drafted, doesn't grow up, and is out of the league in two years.

Didn't you see the 2003 Western Division Champions sign?
