The Facts:
According to Peter King of SI.com, the Saints are counting on Ingram to get about 200 touches within the context of the offense this season.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Considering both Darren Sproles and Pierre Thomas are better receivers, that means the vast majority of those touches are likely to be in the running game which should also include red-zone touches. That strongly suggests that Ingram will be a better option in non-PPR leagues but that his production could surprise if he can capitalize on those red-zone touches. His current ADP finds him falling to Round 8 which is RB3 territory. That sounds about right to us.
