Umm... I think we'll be ok.

Major, Kamara to Kevin Faulk? Think you're short-changing AK...

Faulk was slower, though a methodical, disciplined multi-role player like Pierre Thomas; in fact, Cadet is a Faulk clone if ever there was one which the hate baffles me...

I'd liken Kamara's size, speed, shiftiness to Reggie Bush, who's role was last filled with Sproles - who was prematurely moved and haven't had that joker back since...

This is more of Payton going back to his early blueprint for success...

JP,

Cadet and the great Kevin Faulk should NEVER be used in the same sentence

.

Furthermore, the Patriots just don't induct any average Joe's to their Ring of Honor. If Kamara ends up half as good as Faulk was in his role here in New Orleans ... we've landed one hell of a back.

I was looking at all the Safeties in the draft. Almost none can get up as high as Marcus. Not even close. Think there was one. That should get him at least a couple of picks alone.

Not sure. Maybe he'll make some noise today.

+1. With a ridiculous vertical like this, let Marcus roam in the end zone on those .01 sec Hail Mary's plays and just ... ."knock it down!".
