Alvin Kamara is the prototype Sean Payton running back. A player who is equally effective between the tackles and outside, not to mention able to handle the demanding New Orleans Saints’ passing game to their running backs. All of that, and the fact that Kamara played most of last season on an injured knee, point to the importance of re-signing him before he moves on.
However, the Saints’ absolutely absurd 2017 draft has finally come to haunt them. It’s not a bad problem to have by any means, but Ryan Ramcyzk, Marshon Lattimore and Marcus Williams are all due new deals, alongside Kamara.
