Alvin Kamara was at one time the best dual-threat Running Back in football, and might be the most dynamic offensive weapon in franchise history.

Saints Head Coach, Sean Payton, gushed to anyone who would listen about how much he loved Kamara in his rookie training camp.  Sure enough, the former Tennessee Volunteer had 1,554 Yards from Scrimmage, 13 Touchdowns, and was a Second Team All-Pro, a Pro Bowl, and the Offensive Rookie of the Year.  Kamara followed that up with an even better year with 1,592 YFS with 18 Touchdowns, and a second Pro Bowl.  Kamara again was a Pro Bowler in 2019, this time with 1,330 YFS, and in 2020, Kamara went four-for-four in Pro Bowls, and led the NFL in Touchdowns (21).  Kamara did it again in 2021, gaining a fifth Pro Bowl, though it was the first time he did not break 1,400 Yards From Scrimmage.  Kamara, who had a share of off-field issues leading into 2022, was still a superstar, was not named to the Pro Bowl, though in that campaign he amassed well over 1,300 YFS.

Kamara's skills can not be questioned, and his offensive acumen is among the best New Orleans has ever seen.  He remains with the Saints entering 2025, and he currently boasts over 11,000 YFS with 85 Touchdowns.

In terms of value, you can argue that one of the best Draft Picks that the New Orleans made in the 21^stCentury was Zach Strief, their Seventh Round Pick from Northwestern.

Xavier University wasn’t known for its football players, and even if you were the all-time school record holder in Receiving Yards, it does not get you a lot of attention.  Perhaps, that is why Danny Abramowicz, who held those honors as a Musketeer, went only in the 17^thRound in 1967.

Joe Johnson was an All-Rookie for the Saints in 1994, after New Orleans took him 13^thOverall in the NFL Draft after a great career at Louisville
