Dynasty RB Ingram or Hillis? (1 Viewer)

Got Ingram, can get Hillis, can't have both. Which would be better next year? Ingram splitting carries on a Air attack team, or Hillis with his issues and poor QB?

 
Hillis, Hillis has proven he can be a stud, Ingram cant handle the load and is a bust in the Knowshon Moreno mold, and will have sproles there till the end of time so its guaranteed he'll never be a stud

FBG has gotten to be such a shtick machine now, absent any serious thought or analysis. It's flimsy logic to say Ingram can't handle the load when he's played only 7 games and is stuck in a 3-man timeshare. Sproles is no more of a threat to take away touches as most other RB situations outside of MIN, JAX, PHI and a few others who have the one bellcow back. Ingram's biggest problem is that Peyton's got him in no versatile packages yet, while he learns protection schemes. Brees's protection is the primary concern. Talk to any NFL personnel guy, and they look at Ingram on the field and defenses know that it's a run play 90% of the time. Thomas and Sproles have an advantage here in that they're mixed in with any number of formations/plays that keep the defenses on their toes. This all will change.I mean, the kid went 14 for 91 his last game before getting nicked up. He'll be fine.
 
I would say Ingram because he is younger and may improve and has greater pedigree. I think that Hillis over achieved last season. The league is full of HBs who are not great talents, but are adequate, and in the right situation can have a good year. That's how I see Hillis.

How were the other 6 games?
 
I'd gamble on ingram, however if hillis goes to a team like Detroit or NE ired going to have great value next year imo.

 
Ingram and it's not even close. Hillis does not have the skill set of Ingram and is prone to get nicked up just as much. take the more talented player in the better situation

 
Which player is more talented? That's the guy on want on my squad.

For my money, that's Ingram all the way. On top of that the reports coming out of the locker room and front office on Hillis are becoming concerning.
