When the Minnesota Vikings selected Ed Ingram in the second round with the 59th pick, they drafted what they thought was the guard of the future.
He came with an excellent pedigree in pass protection and had a stout anchor. There were some real questions about his ability to function in the wide zone due to his unideal athleticism for the scheme and how slow he can be off the ball.
His performance so far hasn’t been great. He leads the NFL in pressures and sacks allowed per PFF but some of the wow plays he has are tremendous.
The big question here is this: how do we parse this all out? Should Ingram still be starting or does he need to be benched? I broke it all down.
