The Saints backfield may be crowded, but after only one week, it's fairly clear how the roles are going to shake out. Pierre Thomas will get about five carries and close to double-digit targets in the passing game, Khiry Robinson will play relief pitcher, and Mark Ingram will be the closer and the lead rushing back, getting somewhere between 13-17 carries per game.

That may not seem like much, but consider this: he'll get a ton of goal-line work. He'll also get a ton of work late in the game, as the Saints will ice away many victories on Mark's legs.

He'll likely never be more than a flex - and perhaps even less in PPR formats - but his consistency and stability will be in a boon in stream and bye-week situations.
