What's the most realistic high price tag we can put on Mark Ingram returning for next season? 3M, 4M, 5M?

About halfway between $3m and $4m.

I'd give him 5. Keep everything intact as much as possible with Brees still playing.

He will get a deal that makes both sides happy. AK41 retweeted a graphic this week about their stats together and it said "excited to see what these two do in 2019." He is coming back 100%.

I'd be more concerned about the length of the deal. I'd rather give him $5 million for 3 years than $4 for 4 or 5. He's not going to get any younger.

He means a good bit to our offense, but he's a RB. Im a fan of flipping cheap RB's if I could. I would start low and see if he bites, like 3 years/5M and gradually go up and see where we meet.

3 years $13.5 million with $7 million guaranteed. That’s $4.5 million per season which is more than fair for a 30 year old RB. Both sides would win with a deal like this.

Do a trade now. Get the best we can & move on. He rushed for 645 and another 180 receiving. Is that a $5M performance ?
Clear the cap space now cause AK’s & MT’s contracts are not far away.

Let him go. Too expensive for 6-7 games of production

Let Ingram go. Sign Hyde to short-term cheap deal. Spend the savings on other positions of need, like OL and DL.

ETA: ...or spend on slot receiver.
