Sean Payton hinted recently that the Saints might not have signed Peterson if they had known they were going to draft Kamara in the third round -- or, at least, that the vision for Peterson wouldn’t have been the same.

Fantasy Impact: 

As the story said, it's overstating things, but Kamara's bust-out game in Week 4 in London certainly helped things along. Ingram and Kamara will see more snaps as a result of Peterson leaving, but keep in mind Peterson wasn't getting a lot of time anyway.
