Personally Im getting that Knowshon Moreno feel from him, 3 yds a cloud of dust and injury prone. Doesnt seem like Sproles will be going away anytime soon whats his price tag right now?

 
I like him. He's a rookie RB with a good college pedigree and was a first round pick. Yeah he's hurt now but I'll give him a pass until it happens again say next season.

 
a rookie who has shown good talent and the coaches clearly trust him on an elite offense? his price is low due to some fluky FB runs and an injury? buy, buy, buy. Pierre Thomas won't be there forever

 
Ingram have 21 years old. Just wait for him. Next year, put him on your TS and wait. If its not next year it will be the next one. Guy have major upside

 
Holding, but I got him at a pretty low cost.

If I had drafted him I'd be selling for most any reasonable offer.

 
Holding.

I traded for him as a 2012 and beyond RB.

Had no intention of using him this year.

Thought I was set with CJ and Mendenhall. So much for that idea!

He's got great talent and his time will come.

I actually think Payton is saving him for the stretch run this year ans wouldn't be surprised to see him do well after the bye week.

Our league uses a salary cap and he was cut by his old team because he was too expensive. There was plenty of interest in him on the WW. I agree that it looks like he is set up to have opportunity later in the season.
 
Ingram drafter here. Dynasty is not a place for snap decisions. Ingram has the physical skills and talent to start in the NFL, but just like 99% of other RBs, he'll probably take a year or two to hit his stride depending on team situation. Sproles being there raises some eyebrows, but I still like Ingram's core talent.

To give some perspective, I drafted Ben Tate last year and he went on the IR before he could even play a down. Should I have cut bait? Of course not, he's looked real good when he's seen the field and given that RBs have careers of usually 2-3 years, I'm content to wait on him too. Think about how long Michael Turner owners had to wait, but they were paid handsomely if they had the stones to hold on for the ride.

Quick decisions in dynasty can lead to looooong periods of regret (case in point, my dropping Hillis like one week before he went off and snatched up that starter title). Hold on to Ingram.

 
I think it depends on your league and fellow owners. I don't think he's a special running back. If I had him I'd shop him around to see if I could get someone thinking they're pulling a shark move and buying low. If I didn't have him I'd see if I could buy him for cheap. I've been wrong on rb's before (Mendenhall) and don't mind hedging my bets if the cost is low enough. If nothing else I'm sure he'll get his shot within the next couple years.
