The Saints really need a RB to take the pressure off of Brees. Ingram isn't that guy. But I'm not the only one who thinks this. And it's not just LSU fans. Many NFL scouts shy away from your RBs, as well.

Part of that is because Ingram, Richardson, Lacy and T.J. Yeldon have had ups and downs at the next level. As dominant as Alabama program's has been, its NFL track record on running backs is sketchy. Whether it's too many carries, too much hype or too high of expectations, the reason Tide backs have uneven pro careers is worth exploring to see if concerns about drafting an Alabama back is valid. Here’s a look at those five running back’s average production from their first year at Alabama through their third year in the pros


Explains exactly why the best rusher in Alabama history was drafted where he was

Nobody is that guy, because Sean Payton is a fricking moron. Ingram is averaging the same per carry as Deuce did, and yet Deuce ran for 1,000+ 4 times. Go figure.

Gives link to one article. Cool.

Go the frick on. This is a poor troll attempt, even by your standards. Try harder, man. This one was just sad.

You really are putting in a lot of research just to prove to everybody what a huge douchebag you are. We already knew

I love when LSU fans break out the "Bama Bust!!!" chant. It's almost like they're too stupid to realize that that is a great recruiting pitch for Bama.

"Son, if you come to Alabama, even if you're not that great, we'll get you overdrafted for your talent level and make you boatloads of money."

Not sure I see the downside as a Bama fan. Win NCs and dominate recruiting; all with inferior talent to LSU.
