re: Saint's plan to tender Ivory,

I agree with nobody giving up a second round pick. However, I never understood that logic. Odds are Ivory will be a bigger contributor on a team in which he is the started than 90% of the second round picks over the next couple of years. I have always felt NFL teams overvalue draft picks in simple trades such as an established player who is a known entity versus a draft pick that has a good chance not to pan out as well as the player being traded.
