Its gonna get expensive. I hope they can get him signed for less than what Elliot got.

Breaking news... something happened somewhere with someone.

Lol

On a serious note... I hope we let him play out his current contract then negotiate next year. Makes no sense for him to go for a blockbuster deal after the pathetic year he had.

He wouldn't have had a pathetic year if Payton hadn't run him through the grinder using him as a feature back. He was injured all year long and that hurt his production.

He is not a feature back and should not be paid like some of the top running backs. He won't last the season with that kind of use. Don't get me wrong. I want to keep him in the black and gold but I know we can't pay everyone top money.

That is why we need to get a deal done with him now. If we wait until after next season his worth could go through the roof.

I am not sure he was a feature back this season, he had less touches than the previous year.

He was very frustrating to watch this season and although Murray ran against many more loaded boxes he was just as effective...

As a fan, I don't like to see RBs get paid, they don't last long and aren't the real determining factor for their success.

My pay chart priority...
QB
O-line
D-line
DBs
WRs
LBs

Price for a used Kamara? Has sustained some damage, but won some great races. Refurbish in progress.
