Many sports analysts and journalists have consideed Mark Ingram as a viable candidate for the first-round pick for the New York Giants. Mark Ingram, 21, is the top running back entering the draft, and the 2009 Heisman trophy winner. He also helped lead his team to a 14-0 record to win the BCS Nation Championship.
Mark Ingram is the son of Mark Ingram Sr., who was a wide reciever drafted by the Giants with the 28 pick (first-round) in 1987.
He weighs in at 215 lbs., and is 5'9".
Usually, selecting running backs in the first round is frowned upon, becaus emany running backs can be coached into great athletes, and you can use that pick at other positions. It's not completely false. Both New York Giants RB's, Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw both were selecting in later rounds, with Bradshaw being selected in the 7th round of the 2007 draft.
With the Giants need in other positions such as, OL and LB, do you take a running back in the first round. He may become a star one day.
We still don't know what's going to happen to Bradshaw, who's a free agent and Jacobs, who has been at odd with the team, coaches, and the media in New York.
