Alvin Camara was absent from camp due to the contract


Joe wants new contracts to run backs like Mixon and Dalvin Cook. We’ve heard about those potential controversies for months.

Alvin Camara is also in the final year of his rookie deal, and there has been no further news about the progress of negotiations with the New Reliance Saints. Less than two weeks before the start of the season, there is some big news.

Is supposed to be related to his contract, Said Adam Shefter of ESPN. “Data-reacted =” 22 “> Three direct misunderstandings from room practice have been absent and that is Is supposed to be related to his contract, Said Adam Shefter of ESPN.

Saints have a sudden problem.

Alvin Camara is sitting out of practice

Since entering the NFL, Kamara has been at the back of football’s best, the explosive playmaker, whose acquisition skills make him a major part of the offense of a great saint.

It is also underpad. Kamara is on the final year of a four-year 86 3.86 million deal. His base salary this season is 13 2.13 million. It is well below the market value behind its talent level.

If this controversy continues in the season Saints will turn to Latavius ​​Murray. Murray has a good back but not as versatile as Camara. New Orleans offense will really miss Kamra, and the Saints have dreamed of a Super Bowl. They start with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1, and that match is decisive in NFC South.

But the Saints are paying a lot of players and they will probably be wary of most of the history in the back.

Will the saints pay Kamara?

The storyline is well-worn now: a good running back isn’t important, but it can usually be found in a later draft or cheaper in free agency, and it’s common for teams to regret the enormous extension for the back. Kamara looks like an outlayer, but sadly many of the backs on the big extension list looked like their outlaws.

Clearly, the Saints need to have Kamara’s superiority this season, and they have high hopes. If the room is sitting still until a new deal is struck, it puts New Orleans in a difficult position. It is also not ideal for fictional footballers who made room in the first round of recent drafts.

There is not much time for the saints to find out. And surely they want the Buccaneers to settle before the city arrives for the season opener.
