He doesn't have a ton of leverage.

His leverage is whether our Saints are willing to play the season without him. Holdouts are always about who blinks first. Two examples of RB doing it this past season. In the case of Zeke, Dallas blinked first. In the case of Gordon, the Chargers waited him out. I don't know who would blink first in this case, but this is the season he would use the leverage if he's going to try.

Rookie of the year, 2XPBowler, can play WR, kick returner, good blocker, still young...I just don't see any scenario where he is not a part of this team. RB's are a dime a dozen but he's not an average RB. If he was 27, 28 then maybe but he only 24, 25 next season. That is the prime age of a RB. If healthy he's going to kill it next year.
