Should the Saints Renegotiate Kamara's Contract Now?

He's the Truth.

Just how do the Saints make that work with the cap?

You don't do it now but eventually, obviously, of course. Rest easy, there is a 0% chance Kamara leaves and goes away to another team as a free agent. But let it play out a little longer. Keep in mind, there is a lot of change coming in the Saints cap situation -- a lot of money that is tied up and not there now, will be freed up in a year or two, and a lot of money that is available now will probably be used to pay other important but lesser people first. Plus a fair amount of Loomising will happen, and we will get this done nicely and equitably for all parties involved, when the time is right. Kamara isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Not allowed to until after this season. Has to have three years accrued.

Looks like we may not have to worry to much about Lattimore breaking the bank.

If we renegotiate any RB's contract it should be Mark Ingram's

We will get to it eventually, but extending Payton certainly increases our credibility in keeping him.

If they could write it where his biggest money year is the year Drew's money isn't on the books.

When Kamara wants more money, he will get paid and the Saints will pay him. Honestly, I believe it will absolutely happen next year.
