He might just have wanted to play in florida for the weather and no personal income tax.
Whatever, the guy had one ****ing sack last year.

Starting to wonder if it was more Ingram not wanting to be back. Reports I read he demanded out of Pitt because he was not starting. Good chance he would not been the starter here either. I think it is looking like he wants to see if he starts the whole season whether he can get a 3 year deal down the road.

If he wanted to come back and had expressed it to the team, we wouldn't have needed to give him that FA tag.

I would so much rather have a 6th rounder than Melvin Ingram

I’m fine with it. Get one of the remaining FA’s and let’s ride.
Spags might want his old pal JPP back with him.

If they were willing to agree at $4.4 million or whatever that tender guaranteed (which was effectively locked in when they put the tender on him) then they would've been willing to match to the total max value of around $5 million. A few hundred thousand doesn't mean anything on the cap really. So I'm guessing that Ingram approached them with the number he had, it was larger than the number they wanted to pay and they knew he'd take that over the tender figure. So they slapped the tender on him just to recover the draft pick they used to acquire him to begin with. There's gotta be another plan in place. There's just no way they intend to run with this DE group.

I mean c'mon - this just makes too much sense to not get it done, doesn't it?

Overthecap.com has the Melvin Ingram contract and they agree with most things reported above, but they say the cap will be $3.96M and the only part that is guaranteed will be the $1.65M bonus.
Chiefs used the UFA tag on Melvin Ingram which was a 10% increase from Melvin Ingram's $4M contract so $4.4M. If Melvin signed that contract with the Chiefs, would the $4.4M have been guaranteed? Dolphins have Emmanuel Ogbah and Jaelen Phillips playing at DE so he might get more playing time with Miami. Since the money was close to the same, just trying to figure out why Miami. Melvin may have been slightly pissed that the Chiefs gave his #24 jersey away to Skyy Moore and maybe thought Chiefs should have negotiated with him rather than use the UFA tag. |

Because from my chair, a 6th for Ingram was a complete no-brainer. And I'd do it again.
