Fantasy Football : Faces In New Places Outlook
By Dylan Tice
4. Mark Ingram- Saints ——–> Ravens
ADP: 4.07 RB22
Breakdown– Finally getting away from Sean Payton who never wanted to make Ingram a featured back for the Saints, Ingram quickly signed with the Baltimore Ravens in free agency. As noted in the SOS RB article, Ingram has the easiest schedule in 2019 this year for running backs. The Ravens are expected to be one of the most run-heavy teams in 2019, which can only mean good things for Ingram.
Ingram didn’t have a good season in 2018 but it was due to his 4-game suspension and the emergence of Alvin Kamara. In 2017 and 2016, Ingram finished as a top-10 fantasy RB in both seasons, and those were without being a featured back.
Entering the 2019 season, I’m expecting Ingram to get the majority of the carries for the Ravens, leaving Gus Edwards and Kenneth Dixon left for scraps. I’m a big fan of his ADP and he’s the perfect RB2 or flex option for your fantasy team.
