Based on a lot of scouting reports I've read, Kamara should be able to impact this team immediately. Sean Payton's style of offense is all about mismatches. I think this was a solid pick and needed.

With the additions of AP, Ginn and now a young Kamara, this offense could be deadly in 2017.

Offense has pretty much been deadly every year that Payton has coached the Saints!

This should definitely increase our red zone efficiency... screens to Kamara just one more thing to worry about! and if you get AP and Kamara in a split back formation; uh oh!

We have been missing a good/reliable satellite running back for the last few years. We have tried different ways to address the position, but they have failed. I don't have stats readily available but we were fairly inconsistent on 3rd down conversions last year. With Kamara now in the fold, things should be different on offense. Being able to roll clock (win the time of possession battle), move the chains on 3rd down attempts & capitalize in the red zone (TD's NOT fg's) makes you a deadly offensive team.

The Saints had the best 3rd down percentage in the league last season and the second best 4th down percentage.

NFL Stats: by Team Category

The Saints were also pretty good at redzone TD efficiency.

But I do agree with you that Kamara should give the team more options than they had last year.
