I'm coming around on this one, he's a solid player. Probably a good compliment to Kamara.

Great patience, great vision, good step and balance. Reminds me a bit of pierre thomas

This kid looks like the real deal. I hope I’m not cursing him but he could take over for AK next year or two

TCU has a ton of potential but he’s gotta take better care of his body.

A healthy Miller AND Neal could be a good problem to have.

Good luck at camp

Realistically a RB Kamara's age, about to turn 30 in June, could go down with a career spiraling injury or become completely ineffective at any time immediately. It seems like only about 10% of elite running backs can still be effective at age 31 so I would say that in 2026 its not just possible, but probable, that the Saints leading rusher will not be Alvin Kamara. Also, Alvin Kamara has an $11.5m salary for 2026 of which $8.5m is not guaranteed. If Kamara even has an off year in 2025, it would make no sense to retain him for 2026 to a normal sober GM. Kamara has been a great Saint but the stats are what they are on aging RBs. 90% somebody is taking over within 2 years.

Triple monster at RB would indeed be a great problem to have behind our two bookend tackles for he next ten years.
