Re: Saints have begun talks for an extension for running back Alvin Kamara, per report
 

Payton told his personnel guys in the draft process that he envisioned Kamara as his Marshall Faulk (whom Payton coached at San Diego State.) Payton loves Kamara’s football IQ and he’s going to get whatever contract he wants.

Payton was literally sitting on the bench with Kamara going over what plays they could still run when Josh Hill got knocked out of a game. That tells you all you need to know about how much Payton respects Kamara.

Hey no worries. Not a biggie.

His agent has to know that we set a price value on every player and won't pay more. Just ask Mark Ingram. If we can't come to an agreement he would be an excellent player to dangle for a trade. Don't get me wrong. I want him in New Orleans. But I know this front office and they don't play hard ball with anyone.
