RB Alvin Kamara, NO (3 Viewers)

Brees retiring destroyed this incredible talent.

Really? So over 1300 total yds and 9 tds in 13 games last year without Brees is bad?

 

[LawFitz]

Those of you who are down on Kamara - what kind of lowball offer in redraft would it take to pry him from you?

Just offered AJ Dillon + Courtland Sutton to the Kamara owner. Trying to gauge whether or not I am an ******* for doing so, lol.

Redraft, yes... To be clear - I am offering AJD+Sutton to try to receive Kamara. Glad to hear the offer is compelling.

Was Brees there last season?

No, not "bad". But this guy was a fantasy god before last year. His reception totals were cut in half. And they ain't coming back in this system. He needed insane (and unproductive) volume to put up the worst numbers of his career last year.

He missed 4 games and had 4 different starting QBs. If anything, he was a main component at prolonging Breed’s career who should have retired 3 years earlier.

That's a decent offer but I wouldn't rush to accept it as the Kamara owner, especially with Carolina slated for this weekend.

 

[QuizGuy66]

Inexplicably dropped in my 8-teamer. I scooped him up as the price was right (Dropped Henderson).

Which is one way of saying if you like him it probably is market bottom.

Saints’ RB Alvin Kamara officially active today.

[BubbaFridge]

Nervous about starting.

Confidence level here?

AK or G Wilson 1/2 ppr?

 

[Faust]

Alvin Kamara rushed 15 times for 61 yards in the Saints' Week 3 loss to the Panthers, adding two catches for 12 yards.​

Kamara coughed up a first-quarter fumble that was returned for a touchdown by Panthers defensive end Marquis Haynes. The Saints' lost this game by five, so the touchdown could have been the difference between a win and a loss. Jameis Winston struggled in this game and that is reflected in Kamara's receiving line. He was targeted seven times but only came away with two catches. Mark Ingram also stole a carry at the five-yard line that he punched into the end zone. With two dissapointing weeks under his belt, Kamara will look to rebound versus the Vikings.

[oswizzle]

Kamara looks cooked… no dump off passes and its looking like a bust pick #9 in my league

 

[zoonation]

As I was saying....

 

[menobrown]

He got hurt week one, missed week two and likely needed pain injection shots to suit up this week. He's aruably been the bust of the year so far but I'd still hold off on the toast talk.

 

[BigAl21]

Is it time to move Kamara for a 1st in FFPC of you can get it? Even as a contender.

Mike Triplett @MikeTriplett

Another delay in Saints RB Alvin Kamara’s court case. Each delay makes it more possible that he won’t be suspended during the 2022 season. Although the word “negotiations” does keep the window open that a plea agreement could be reached at some point.

He's not involved in the passing game. Same with CMC. The Vikings game will tell us all we need to know.

With Mike Thomas out this week and Winston listed as doubtful. I think (hope) Kamara will catch a lot of check downs from the Red Rifle

Feels weird to say this about a 2nd round pick but if his QB1 (Jameis) is healthy, I'm probably benching Kamara for Herbert, but I'd play him if their backup QB starts. Hoping we can resurrect the old Dalton/Gio style connection with Kamara this week if Jameis doesn't go.

That seems like a good plan to me

 

[foxco]

I'm so sad starting this guy.

 

[LawFitz]

Lol, this thread is the polar opposite of the Khalil Herbert thread right now.

AK41 is due. Hopefully this weekend, gents.

I hope you are right
I’m considering benching him for AJ Dillon this weekend but as of now Kamara is in my lineup

 

[massraider]

I have no idea why every Kamara owner also owns Herbert, but it certainly appears that way.

We need our own Reddit Forum or something.

Should see more targets with Dalton this week

#Saints Coach Dennis Allen just confirmed to me Alvin Kamara will NOT play today (ribs). Jarvis Landry (ankle) will play. #MINvsNO

[Sj27dog]

he is the bust of the decade this miserable sob

 

[dschuler]

Last night it looked like he was going to play, this morning late scratch. Wow, he’s locked on my roster now. Worst pick ever

 

[BobbyLayne]

In redraft, it’s pretty hard to get any value at this point; RB61 in PPR and dealing with injury.

Who’s his competition? Banged up 33 year old Mark Ingram?

Should be the same guy he’s always been if he can get healthy. Had 17 touches (7 targets) in his last game. Generally, Winston doesn’t check down as much as Dalton (who had 11 targets/10 receptions to RB/TEs in London.)

OC Pete Carmichael has been there 17 years, HC Dennis Allen 8 years. Surely at some point decide they have to get back to Saints style football?

Don’t feel super confident going forward but honestly I don’t know what else you do in redraft. I’m 3-1 but if he doesn’t come alive IDK how I’ll be in contention for a title.

Alvin Kamara (ribs) plans to return in Week 5 against the Seahawks.​

Kamara was a surprise inactive for Week 4 against the Vikings, but was back practicing on Wednesday. With his sights set on playing in Week 5, Kamara said he will wear some extra padding to protect himself from any additional damage. Kamara has had an underwhelming start to his season. Having already missed two games, Kamara has managed just 16.9 fantasy points on the year and has yet to find the end zone. If active, he should be in for a productive Week 5 against the Seahawks.

Alvin Kamara (ribs) remained "limited" for Thursday's practice.​

We always like to see players coming off injury get in a "full" session, but Kamara has already said he is going to suit up against the Seahawks. It's an A+ matchup, one where the Saints seem on track to start check-down signal caller Andy Dalton as deep-ball aficionado Jameis Winston continues to deal with a back injury. It puts Kamara in the low-end RB1 mix, but it is difficult to get him higher because of his slow start and injury issues.

If one was available to be leaked, wouldn't it have come out by now?

Between you and I – I’m surprised it’s taken this long for pictures to come out. I heard earlier that the dude that Kamara attacked is being represented by the dude that is representing the women in the case against Deshaun Johnson. Seems odd that the story went so long without pics being released—until a few weeks after Buzzbee (the lawyer) gets hired by Kamara’s victim. He’s also now asking the NFL to review the case in a more expedited fashion—so maybe he has more in his back pocket if the NFL drags its heels.

Maybe it was different photos but I believe photos came out right away.

I hadn’t seen these photos before. They are obviously screen grabs from a video.

Last one is guy laying in floor.

King of grainy and nothing too shocking… but it’s not as if it’s new information.

We know he got in a fight and punch and kicked this guy while he was down.

Having said that, I do believe a video would be more damming, but again not sure if it would pressure the league to do anything until after the trial.

But I don’t know either way.

 

[cdclopper]

Nothingburger. Let me know when they announce his suspension.

 

[The Frankman]

Alvin Kamara rushed 19 times for 99 yards in New Orleans' Week 6 loss to the Bengals, adding six catches for 25 yards on nine targets.​

With Chris Olave, Michael Thomas, and Jarvis Landry out, Kamara underneath targets were plentiful. The move from Jameis Winston to Andy Dalton, if it holds, should be considered a good one for those who rostered Kamara after back-to-back six-catch outings. The Saints have a quick turnaround for Thursday Night Football against the Cardinals and Kamara should be considered on the RB1/RB2 borderline.

man **** Taysom Hill

 

[KingPrawn]

Loooong time Kamara owner. I'm about to give up on him.

 

[johnnyboy8102]

Has 423 total yards the past 3 games but someone no TDs.

 

[zamboni]

He’s just not the same impact player post Brees. The offense just isn’t nearly as efficient.

 

[Faust]

Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for 49 yards in the Saints' Week 7 loss to the Cardinals, adding seven receptions for 56 additional yards.​

Kamara has now cleared 100 yards from scrimmage in each of his three appearances since returning from his rib injury in Week 5. All three games have featured check-down maestro Andy Dalton under center as opposed to Jameis Winston, though Dalton didn't help his cause this evening with three picks. After hurting for targets with Winston at the helm, Kamara has 24 over the past three weeks. Even were Winston to return for Week 8 against the Raiders, Kamara will remain a locked-in RB1. Vegas is soft on the ground.
