Michael Thomas tweets Mark Ingram may be about to pull an Anthony Barr and change his mind (update - tweet deleted) (1 Viewer)

Some delusion going on here. Ingram isn’t going to take $4M per. This is his last big contract.

Ingram should take the pay day... He won't get another opportunity.

Sad, but true. I wouldn't blame him either; the Saints lowballed him. He's earned a payday. Also, there's no way this happens AFTER the Saints have signed Murray. Not a chance. Wish I could believe it but it's delusional.

They have NOT signed Murray.

The rumor is that he would go to Ravens but now there is a lot of talk that Ravens might take Leveon. If Leveon goes to baltimore maybe Ingram comes back here.

I think he'd end up with the Jets, actually. And be a very good fit there.

Do we know if it's the years as well that's the issue? I know $$ doesn't grow on trees but I'd rather Ingram on a 2 year 15mil deal than Murray at 4 years 14.4mil

Jets using money intended for Barr for final offer too Le-Veon Bell

Interesting thing about the Jets - the cost of living skyrockets and Ingram may not want to move his family to New York.

Mark changing his mind is one thing, but I cant see the Saints burning Murray.

What does that mean for Murray, if true?

We can pull our offer. These are just verbals

Now I understand why the jets paid so much for Mosley. Didn't realize Barr backed out.

If Ingram would I'd be cool with it, but the fact that he considered leaving so strongly that we "signed" Murray is a bad look. I know his teammates would not be upset with him and I think it's in the best interest of both. Murray is not an upgrade to Ingram and keeping Mark would allow our offense to go about business as usual. I don't blame our front office for not overreacting because we have to sign Kamara, MT, Lattimore and possibly Marcus Williams in the coming year. Not to mention Cam and others.

Well... We do need a 3rd back for relief.

Well... We do need a 3rd back for relief.

Not at 3.4m per season.

This is wishful thinking by Mike and rightfully so. Mark means a lot to this locker room, but I think what's done is done, as sad as it makes me.

The Jets stadium and facility are in New Jersey.

Well, with Brees coming off the book. Only the 1st year numbers should matter.
