Mark Ingram a healthy scratch (1 Viewer)

[zatsnzapps]

He left over $500k

I think it's actually more than that.

The Saints offered a 4 year, $17 million contract, and the Ravens offered a 3 year, $15 million contract. The biggest difference between the offers was the guaranteed money - Saints offered to guarantee $5 million and the Ravens offered $6.5 million in guarantees. He also wound up getting a $4 million signing bonus, and I don't know if that was on the table with the Saints or not.

I still think the two sides could've worked it out through negotiations, but it sounds like Mark's agent shot for the moon with the Saints and the Saints decided to act quickly to sign Latavius instead of negotiating with Mark, and possibly missing on both of them.

anyone catch Dan Arnold's fiasco this week ? oof!

What did he do

 

[soupcan dan]

What did he do

dropped two third down dink passes, fumbled the ball away and danced poorly in the locker room.

 

[Hey BAY BAY!!!]

I just hope he doesn't end up in ATL backing up Gurley next year.

HELL, Gurley want be in ATL next year. Both players prolly ride off in sunset.

 

[Noble Saint]

No, not exactly. The Saints offer was 4 years 17 million with 5 million guaranteed.

The Ravens gave him 3 years 15 million with 6.5 million guaranteed.

Yeah the offer was a little better than ours, but no where near what they claimed they could get. We would’ve matched what he signed for.

I would not be surprised if Ingram is released and a Falcon next year. He would be an upgrade to Ito Smith and Todd Gurley.

He would be dead to me.

You would think ATL has learned their lesson about signing RBs that are past their prime. They haven't learned from Steven Jackson and Todd Gurley? of course, they are the Falcons, so...

The wheels come off fast for a RB after age 30.

Unless your Frank Gore, lol dude doesnt give up easy.

Yeah but have you watched Frank run recently? It’s not pretty. Painfully slow and usually short yardage like a key 3rd and 1. He’s a role player. I love him though. How can he still be producing at that age with those knees? He has a chance to pass Walter Payton in career rushing yards if he plays next year. I think he’s within a couple hundred yards now.

Is there some weird universal force that just absolutely forbids Mark Ingram and Dez Bryant to be on the field together?

I can remember in 2018, Ingram doing the X sign in the Cincinnati game as a tribute to Dez a few days after his injury.

Now Dez makes his way into the Ravens lineup (and even scoring a few TDs recently) and it's Ingram who can't see the field?

 

[Saintaholik]

Title says it all. Yikes.

Perhaps he's released and comes on back home next year to be our lead hype man?

I think he comes home!

 

[porculator]

Not sure I'd want him back as a RB.

But who's that amped up bald guy on our sidelines that always swarms players after a big play? Maybe Mark could be his assistant?

Charles Byrd. He's the assistant strength and conditioning coach so Ingram would be an assistant to the assistant.
