Drop Ingram for Farrow?

I'm 10th on the waiver priority, so it's probably a moot point, but hear me out on this.
First of all, Ingram, and my Saints as a whole, are floundering at the moment. Ingram has 2 tough matchups in weeks 15 and 16 in Arizona and TB.
Farrow has 2 easy matchups in the next two weeks against Oakland and Cleveland.
This is a standard scoring, 10 team, keeper league. Because it's a keeper league, Ingram is one of the only players I can see dropping at this point. He was my 1st round pick (since a lot of the true 1st rounders were kept from last year), so I would not be able to keep Ingram next year because our keeper cost is the drafted round -1 (Free Agents = 16th round, Waiver pickups = 12th round).
Here is my full roster with their keeper cost next year.
QB:
Ben Roethlisberger - 3
RB:
Demarco Murray - 2
Lamar Miller - 15
Mark Ingram - X (Not keep-able)
Doug Martin - 6
Rob Kelley - 16
WR:
Dez Bryant - 1
Jordy Nelson - 1
Michael Thomas - 10
Michael Crabtree - 15
Donte Moncrief - 16
Sammy Watkins - 16
Malcolm Mitchell - X (Not keep-able)
Taylor Gabriel - X (Not keep-able)
I'm the #2 seed, so I'm still competing this year for the championship. So between keeping players this year that can help me and stashing keepers for next year, Ingram seems like the best player to drop at this point.
ETA: We have a rule that any player picked up via WW or FA (Mitchell, Gabriel) after the trade deadline is not keep-able for the following season. Ingram would not be keep-able for anyone else who picked him up after I drop him.
ETA 2: Miller and Crabtree were kept from the previous season with a 16th round pick - that's why they are 15th round keepers for next year.

Why are Mitchell and Gabriel not keepable? And don't you run risk of someone picking up Ingram and then be able to keep as 12th rounder?

Mitchell and Gabriel are not keep-able because they were picked up after the trade deadline. Same reason why Ingram wouldn't be keep-able for anyone that would pick him up if I dropped him.
Sorry, should have mentioned that in the OP. I added the clarification.

I would start Farrow. Isn't Gordon listed as day-to-day?

This isn't a sit/start question. This is a drop/add question.

I wouldn't do it. It sounds as if Gordon avoided major injury. He might even play this week but I doubt he suits up this week. What if u cut Ingram and another playoff team picks him up and he goes off in the playoffs?

Ingram will score vs the Bucs in Week 16. He's done well lately vs NFC South opponents. Chalk last week's game as an L
