What do you guys think is going to happen with Chris Ivory being an RFA?
Your backfield is stacked and quite a few Cards fans are tired of Beanie Wells being injured all the time.
Just curious what it may cost to snatch him this offseason.
Thanks _________________

You really think they'll tender him that high? _________________

None. Porter explained it nicely, thanks Port. I thought for some reason there were more options, but those were probably original round tenders I've seen in the past. I don't think anyone will give up a 2nd though. I can see someone offering up a 3rd or 4th though. What I don't want to see is him wasting away on the bench for another year. _________________

We can tender him for a 2nd and then if someone shows interest but isn't willing to give up a 2nd, we could work out a deal for less compensation. If we don't get any good offers, I have no issue with him being on the bench. We're a Pierre Thomas and Mark Ingram injury away from having a mediocre running game if we lose Ivory. _________________
