Mark Ingram also to the Ravens, at 3 years and $15 million.

Disappointed to hear what he signed for, I'm sure if the Saints thought they could get him at $5M/yr they would've locked that down. Sounds like his camp was looking for - and going to get - $8 million/year just yesterday, his market must've dried up fast. That, combined with it sounds like the Saints felt their window of opportunity to sign Murray was very small, figured they were going to be unable to sign Ingram at that price tag and faced with the possibility of missing out on both, had to make the move for Murray yesterday.

Good luck to Mark, love that guy and think his play style will fit the Ravens very well. He's also a HUGE positive locker room presence, Saints players on Twitter seem shocked and crushed he is gone. I'm sure Kamara most of all.
