In episode five of the Saints Discussion Show, I project what could occur with Alvin Kamara's potential new contract with the New Orleans Saints.

Not from me.I predict at least 3 threads a week complaining about Kamara's social media.
We don't over pay for the position and for what Kamara does he is not a bell cow at the position but a offensive skill player out of the backfield.
Whether he gets paid on NO or the saints let him walk one thing is for sure, the Saints will again find another player who fits the mold.
I don’t think Kamara will be back. He’s going to want highest RB paid money and Payton has never invested that kind of money in a RB (nor should he).
Unfortunately I think this is the last year for Kamara.
Maybe he should start thinking about paying a back, since we’ve mostly had a below average rushing offense since 2006. He’s also never had a back as talented as Kamara in need of a new contract, so it’s hard to say we should expect Loomis/Payton to let him walk. I also find it hard to believe that Loomis would even allow him to enter his contract year if he’s expecting to let him walk. Maybe he would have been offered up for trade this offseason if it wasn’t for the injury, but I really think the plan is to re-sign him.
We’ve gotta pay other guys, but we should be able to afford them all if we’re not spending $50M a year on a QB.
But any flattening of the cap affects everyone equally. So we don't face increased competition for his signature.Considering that the cap won’t be going up for a while due to lost revenue, we’re gonna have to let some talented players go. We gotta pay Lattimore and Ramczyk big bucks.
