The journey of Chris Ivory: Dismissed, discarded and, finally, celebrated

If we had never spent two 1st round picks on Ingram, Chris Ivory would still be here. I remember when he single-handedly help us beat the Falcons who were 7-0 back in 2012.

What are these two first round picks you speak of? We spent ONE 1st round pick, and traded a 2nd round pick to acquire that first rounder. We swapped first rounders from one year to the next. Swapping does not equate spending.
