Good breakdown, guys. Take the 22.4M off the books for 2025 and replace that with 11M guaranteed for 2025 and 11M unguaranteed for 2026. The Saints do have to try to get away from having to keep these older guys around just because cutting them blows up the salary cap. Problem is they're so far behind the 8-ball as it is, that each year they end having to do the restructures just to get under the cap for the coming year. At some point you might not even be able to do enough restructures to get under the cap. There are so many unknowns here, despite having had him for 7 years. I think they'll get something done before the start of training camp, but we'll see.
Im a Raiders fan but someone mentioned Mickey Loomis not being ok with Alvin leaving pratice? That it didnt set well with him.
Saints media say the darnedest things.
Saying AK has leverage and the Saints would be in trouble without him, when he could be absolute crap in this Kubiak scheme?
Look at Dameon Pierce from the Texans, in 2022, he was one of the best up & coming RB’s, but he doesn’t fit the Shanahan scheme, so he sucked in 2023 and will continue to suck, they need to trade him to a different scheme.
Invest high in a RB to replace AK?
Draft a RB high?
What?
Have you paid attention to RB’s in the Shanahan/Kubiak system?
It requires a very specific skill set & an ability that’s almost instinctive.
The good news is, you can find someone with this skill set typically on someone’s practice squad.
At worst, they can draft someone in the 3rd-5th round next year, that can be a 1,000 yard rusher, which strangely enough, is something AK has NEVER done?
AK & Kendre Miller may be horrible in Kubiak’s scheme and Jamaal Williams & Jordan Mims may be awesome at it.
The ONLY tricky part is finding someone who is good at it, who can also catch, doesn’t fumble and can pass protect.
If Kubiak isn’t sure about any of the RB’s currently on the roster, he can still sign Dalvin Cook off the street for next to nothing, who he knows can run his scheme, even if he’s past his prime.
Just pay the man and get it over with!
A couple of down years?!? Why did he hv those "DOWN YEARS"?!?
PETE CARMICHAEL is the reason for why AK's numbers dropped!!!
They are on the hook for 11.6 this year 22 in 25 give him 30 guaranteed three years and let him retire at year ten and he will be happy and maybe if he goes off and we win one he has a chance at the hall
Offer him the Derrick Henry deal otherwise let him walk.
Y’all trippen stop looking what he did in the past.. watch the tape last year A K 1 v 1 didn’t win very often
How does a running back win 1v1? Don't you need an offensive line, and how well did they play?
I'm not looking in the past at all. I'm looking at the offense that was ran by Pete Carmichael. AK has never been a between the tackle RB he's always had another running mate(Mark Ingram) to be that type of RB, but Carmichael was running AK up the middle, s9 of course his numbers would decline. I GUARANTEE AK will hv a better season this year coming. Hell, I believe that he's gonna put up better numbers than McCaffrey this coming season!!!
