Eagles May Have Interest In Mark Ingram

So who will the Eagles turn to at running back after they’ve traded away LeSean McCoy? One option could be soon-to-be free agent Mark Ingram.
Ingram, who becomes a free agent when his rookie contract with the Saints expires on Tuesday, appears to be on the Eagles’ radar. Lyons Yellin of WWL-TV has heard rumblings about the Eagles being interested in Ingram, whose straight-ahead running style may be more to Chip Kelly’s liking.
If the Eagles were to sign Ingram, it would be the second straight season that they took a running back from New Orleans. Last year they acquired Darren Sproles in a trade with the Saints.
The Saints, however, don’t want Ingram to go, and coach Sean Payton has identified Ingram as a player he’d like to keep. That’s easier said than done because the Saints simply don’t have much cap space, and the Eagles have a lot of cap space. If it’s a matter of money, the Eagles can pay Ingram a lot more than the Saints can.

A lot of teams can pay more. That doesn't mean they will. It would take someone going out of market price to price us out completely($6+ mil).
The biggest issue is whether and how much he wants to be here. That will determine if we are in or out from the start.

Now the move to cut PT is more clear
We're adding even more passing to the game plan

Seems like ever since Kelly has been a head coach (even at Oregon) he hasn't had a "straight-ahead" type running back.
LaMichael James
Kenjon Barner
De'Anthony Thomas
McCoy
Sproles
Seems like the exact opposite of what Kelly usually uses.
