Mende or Ingram, who is the play for your #3 RB this year? (1 Viewer)

Mende has less competition but Ingram has a better line and system. Both these RBs are usually around in the 7-8th round in PPR redrafts. Who should we trust more?

If those two are my only choices, I'm stocking up on another position and then come back to some equally terrible RBs later on.

Lol okay add Tate or A. Brown to the list (looking at MFL adp) truth is the good RBs are flying off the board so much earlier this year than in he past.

i'm content to roll the dice on mende as a rb3. palmer should upgrade the offense enough to make mende spot-start worthy

Hopefully worst record gets waiver priority, then this strategymay lead to a rb of some value. Mendy is not special on a team iI don't see having success rushing and Ingram may not even be the leading carrier on a passing dominant offense

I'd take Ingram over all of them. Arizona made some improvements on their line, so I'm not sure which line is better at this point. The Saints line isn't great. But I've just lost faith in Mendenhall's talent. Ingram had injuries his rookie year and barely got used in the first half of last year. I really think he's going to get 220-240 carries this year, including some goal line action, which is probably similar to Mendenhall's use if he keeps his job, but I think Ingram has more upside... his reunion with Payton is more exciting than Mendy's reunion with Arians.

I invested in Mendenhall as my #3...Between Ingram, Thomas, and Sproles; owning a New Orleans RB just doesnt make sense to me for their ADP. Hopefully Mendenhall only sees my line-up for bye weeks, but I like his chances to out perform Ingram. At least I know he'll get the opportunities.

I think most would probably agree Ingram has the most talent, but maybe the worst situation. Mende at least is playing for a new contract and has little competition. If you could switch Ingram to the Cardinals, I'd like him a lot better.

 

[Coeur de Lion]

Depends on the rest of your RB group IMO. Mendenhall has a higher floor, Ingram has a higher ceiling.

Ingram appeared talented coming out of Alabama but I have yet to see much talent in the NFL

What time is it when you're trying to decide between Ingram and Mendenhall?

Spoiler

Time to take your QB and TE.
