Always a chance, but he's pretty frugal with his money. No leeches and not too many crazy purchases or partying. My car is newer than his and almost cost as much

I think this is a good deal and they need to ride his arse. Give him 15-20+ carries every game. Robinson will be nice and add a Bush or Vereen and I'd be stoked.

I can't believe people are whining about $4mm a year. He did really well last year behind a shitty line.

Its a good deal for both sides. If he comes back craptastic, he's not killing us, if he's really good, we won big-time.

Guess interest in Forsett was a smokescreen.

We could sign another RB, or we could draft/UDFA one. I wouldnt be opposed to bringing Bush back, Ive always liked him, but I'd rather address other needs.

Why are you so angry?


Because the Saints just cut Pierre Thomas and resigned Mark Ingram.

I'm not really angry, though. I grew up wi th the Saints making terrible personnel decisions, so I'm situated to handle it.

I love PT and hate that he was cut, but this isn't a bad deal in the slightest.

Completely agree, but I do like bringing back Ingram for 4 Million

I see I'm way late to the party but some quick thoughts.

This is exactly how much I'd thought we'd offer him and feel it is a reasonable price.

All signs pointed to both sides wanting this and given what they were saying Ingram might get it looks like he took a bit of a discount because he really wanted to stay.

It seems like we might sign another PT type back, especially with the rumors about Bush and Forsett. So maybe that was less about Ingram and more about getting someone with a little more speed than PT.

And I'm sure no less than 20 heads already exploded.

No way in hell I would have resigned him at any price.

Stays hurt and is good for maybe 3 games a year if he is lucky.

So you just would have rolled with Khiry? Or get someone in Free Agency?
