i really like the player. i hope he lives up to the cost of acquiring the player
I think at this point most experts agree we stole Ingram. It was a great value pick, according to them. Besides, say we don't pick Ingram at all. You can't tell me someone didn't have ears on the other teams, seeing if another team was going to pick up Ingram if we passed.
There is a 3rd concept.....our head coach has a wish list of players that he'd like to have based on the team's evaluations.
combine those three and everyone determined that the player and his value/cost was worth it. So far, this FO has proven time and again to mostly get maximum value for the money invested.
So to say that there are a bunch of RBs who could help out in the same areas is pure malarkey, as there are no Heisman trophy winners who cost less in this past years draft.

If he had made it to 32, Green Bay would have snatched him and they (media) would be talking about a Packer repeat right now.
