Ingram is still playing and was just in the pro bowl. You may want to wait a few more years before you label him a bust.

Some of you Bama blowhards will defend anyone.

Ingram is a bust, plain and simple. He did nothing his first 3 years in the league then in his 4th was merely decent running for 900 some yards at 4.3 yards per carry. Hardly a career a 1st round pick can toot their horn for. Dude's a bust.

Clearly the pro bowl doesn't mean much in the case where other guys back out so you can get in and you couldn't even run for 75 yards a game at a fairly low yards per carry average. In fact, this should tell you how RBs are really valued now in the NFL when someone can have that pedestrian of a season and make a pro bowl.

"pro bowl" is a joke. jimmy graham made the pro-bowl and he couldn't catch a cold this season. ingram sucked with the saints and hopefully he gone after this season.

i'd much prefer we pick up yeldon in a mid round. he'd immediately come in and out perform ingram.

He's a 1st round RB with 2,400 yards over 4 years, and he's not getting younger. To not be a bust, he'd have to sign with the Saints again, for way less money, and get about 4500-5000 yards over the next 4 years.
