Saints Fans Will Not Stop Bragging About Alvin Kamara

The kid is good. The Saints fans had to sit through nearly 40 years of only being able to brag about Archie Manning and that half-footed field goal kicker. Let 'em enjoy themselves.

Their current QB is also finished/in a contract year and they have one pick in the top 80 in April 2018.

I seriously doubt Kamara would be doing the exact same thing here. Much worse oline for the 1st half of the season and much less accurate QB throwing to him, AND shula running him up the gut 99 percent of the time , take out almost all those huge outside runs he had!

The Saints should brag for once about the draft.  They hit it out of the park with that kid, and their draft overall looks at least in Year 1 to be the best in the NFL.

The Panthers hit it out of the park in 2013, the Falcons did in 2015, and the Saints did in 2017.  I guess the Bucs are due something sometime.

CMC is going to solid if not spectacular.  Nothing against CMC, but objectively speaking, getting Lattimore and Kamara is better than just CMC.  Still, CMC has been a good pick and is continuing to improve.  Kamara will probably win OROY and deserves it.  CMC has still added a lot to our offense.  It's going to be tough b/c he is always going to be compared to Kamara, but to me CMC at least now looks like the 3rd or 4th best offensive weapon taken in the draft after Watson, Kamara and maybe Fournette.  Over time Watson will be the best pick b/c of the position he plays, and he would have almost certainly won OROY if he stayed healthy.

Both CMC and Kamara will probably have very good careers.  A year ago, Micheal Thomas looked like a much better WR choice than Devin Funchess.  It's more of a wash now that Funchess is in a better position to succeed, and Funchess may have the most upside.

Kamara has benefitted by being in the right system with Sean Payton, having Brees throwing to him, and Ingram to compliment him.  People forget that Ingram was considered a borderline bust at one point, and now is playing at a Pro-Bowl level.  Still, Kamara deserves all the accolades he has received.

Devonta Freeman was the best RB in football last year, but he has had a string of injuries and the concussions for him are every bit as much of a concern as Kuechly.  So much goes into a players success, and injuries, coaching, and other players around you can change so much.

The Saints finally had a good draft after 5+ of colossal failure.  It's been good for us, b/c they wasted a lot of Brees's  prime along with some horrendous FA picks.

so Kamara isn't as good because he's got a great o-line?

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
