Report: Saints 1 of 9 teams scheduled to formally meet with Boise St. RB Ashton Jeanty at NFL Combine

I like Jeanty but look at it this way.

Alvin is playing 60% of your snaps if he's healthy because he's going to be your 3rd down back. There isn't a rookie RB in this draft that's going to beat out Kamara for those duties. That means Jeanty would be splitting time w/ Miller/Clyde Edwards for the other 40%. The only way Jeanty's value is maximized here is if both Alvin, Miller, CEH are all injured and Jeanty becomes the bellcow.

You want a guy who's only takign 40% of the snaps at most at 9?


Jeanty's value is to a team that doesn't have a #1 RB right now. A RB at 9 has value to some team...just not us. Doesn't make much sense when looking at our depth chart.
