Alvin Kamara
RB - NO
2017 Outlook
Expert Note
View More NotesThe Saints backfield has been top-five in fantasy points over the last five years, so when looking at a running back like Kamara this late in drafts, it should get you excited. He's immediately the best receiving option out of the backfield, which should see an extended role with the Brandin Cooks departure.

Alvin Kamara went carried the ball four times for 35 yards in his NFL debut vs. the Browns on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Kamara got the start as the Ingram-Peterson duo sat this one out. He played the first series, and took his first carry of the second series 22 yards. That big play was all Sean Payton needed to see, as he was pulled from the game after it. Kamara showed us his big play ability, but it's interesting that he wasn't targeted in the pass game at all considering the fantasy community has tabbed him as the potential third down back. Only time will tell, but it's worth monitoring the snap splits when all three eventually play.
