Re: Alvin Kamara looms as Saints' next big contract decision
On the flipside I don't think he's worth Drake money 8.5 or Henry at 10.5. Not better than Cook in Minny either. Tried that experiment and didn't work, Kamara isn't a 3 down back. More of a specialty role from what I see. Gonna depend on the worth of that role.

Re: Alvin Kamara looms as Saints' next big contract decision
Aren't there significant fines for each practise a player holds out off under the new CBA?!
I think I heard it being mentioned somewhere - that it was a real deterrant now under the new CBA. |

He’s no MaCaffery but he’s damn important to our team. It all depends on what other teams are going to give up. I think it’s way more likely they sign him if this is in fact Drew’s last season. |

Re: Alvin Kamara looms as Saints' next big contract decision
I believe that Christian McCaffrey reset the bar and Alvin wants to high jump over the bar. On social media it looks like he's getting ready for a big pay day. However, nothing looks right on social media. Social media is the scourge of modern day civilization!
Anyway, I hope we keep AK. He's fun as hell to watch especially before he gets hurt which limits his explosiveness. |

Re: Alvin Kamara looms as Saints' next big contract decision
I would not touch him until the end of the year. Make him earn that big check. If he wants to move on after a big year then tag him and make someone pay for him.

Re: Alvin Kamara looms as Saints' next big contract decision
Definitely worth more than Drake. Henry is debatable. He didn't break out until this past year honestly. Cook is a beast, but he has problems staying healthy.
