Draft Result Drafted in the 2009 Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 5th round with the #17 pick.
If not for a knee injury that wiped out his senior year, Ingram could have garned day one consideration. Ingram is an athletic receiving type who is still learning the position. Has the speed to get down the seam but will need to improve as a blocker. One of the best values of round 5.

Strengths Great athlete. Possesses the speed to be a threat down the seam. Excellent red zone target with combination of height (6'4) and leaping ability. Caught 7 touchdowns as a junior on just 34 receptions. Has tremendous upside.

Weaknesses Extremely undersized from a bulk standpoint. Needs to prove he can play in-line at times. Below average blocker. Missed his entire senior season due to a torn ACL. How well he has recovered will weigh heavily on his draft slot. Needs to refine his route running. Missing his senior year hindered his ability to round out his game. Raw but very talented if healthy.
