      This is where the Cult Of Kamara start in with their boatload of excuses for an old and underachieving RB who has NEVER carried the load himself. He has only ever ridden Drew Brees coattails, needed Michael Thomas at the top of his game, and a back like Ingram or Latavius Murray to carry the ball between the tackles. How does such a specific role player hold out for even more money when he is the highest paid RB in the league in 2024.

    Kamara is not a top ten RB. The Saints fans delusion about what AK actually is has become tiresome. He's not a locker room leader. He's just not. You can get Dalvin Cook or Kareem Hunt off the street at vet minimum and have the same RB with significantly less mileage on the body.
    The fact that the system can make Jeff Wilson look so good is all the more reason to NOT sign Kamara and be willing to run with Jordan Mims are James Robinson.

    James keep playing the fools content showing your dominance in Saints social media. Example Hester and other give AK a pass for a bad season due to Oline play calling etc but Derek Carr should be benched for Rattler and disrespected. I do hope they can work out a fair deal for AK to be back . Thanks again for another good show

    I can see the Saints letting AK walk, holdout, or whatever he thinks is going to give him a sense of leverage and then go out and sign Dalvin Cook to show him the team doesn't need or want him anymore.

    Kamara is a rotten apple in the box. He is going to affect the locker room negatively. He is in the same category as Winston and Thomas. And on top of that he isn’t worth a top ten running back type of money. If he doesn’t agree to a reasonable contract then the Saints should trade him.

    They probably get a deal done with AK before training camp starts. That's my guess. It's just based on the fact we haven't had any leaks to the media yet, that I'm aware of, at least. If you think the other side is being unreasonable is when you leak stuff like this, isn't it? If there is a lot of animosity, that's when you start leaking stuff, trying to apply some public pressure.

    Ok James, as a self-acknowledged vocabulary maven and lexophile, can you explain what you meant by “BFF for life”?
    This is my first encounter with this phrase which tantalizes those who who dream of immortality (known for the mounting grief that accrues as mortal friends and loved ones naturally pass on while the immortal continues ceaselessly with ever-increasing sorrow and despair-perhaps even lamenting that fateful wish as he successfully blew away each and every cottony seed from that magical dandelion as an 8-year-old.)
    The upside is that one could wax as long and ineloquently as one wishes without wasting precious time - as every second would be entirely fungible and worthless since 1/♾️ is zero.
    PS. This post is purely for your amusement. I posit the typical football fan reading a Skrmetta UA-cam video comment will not be amused.

    Let him. How much he gonna get paid at 30 after missing a year? Not much. Although i think it's better to trade him and get something in return than let it get to that. I think trying to sign a 3 yr 30 million deal would be insane. Why did we draft the top 75 running back? Why restructure Taysom? If we pay anybody we should be trying to keep Adebo who was the best player on the team last year, is young and remains unsigned.
    For contrast Rhamondre Stevenson just signed a 4 yr 17m and he's a bellcowv entering his prime. If i was AK i would want a trade to Miami. If i was the team i would do it.
