Draft note
by John Paulsen
Kamara keeps defying the odds, finishing as the fantasy RB9 in 2024 despite turning 30 this summer and operating in an inconsistent Saints offense. His rushing efficiency has clearly declined—he ranked 40th in yards after contact per attempt, 28th in broken tackles per attempt, and posted just the 19th-best PFF rushing grade among qualified backs. But he remains serviceable before contact (16th), and more importantly, he's still one of the league’s premier receiving backs. Over the last two seasons, Kamara leads all running backs in receptions (143) and ranks second in receiving yards (1,009), and his 2nd-place finish in yards per route run in 2024 highlights just how dangerous he still is as a pass-catcher. The problem? The Saints’ quarterback room is among the worst in the league, and scoring opportunities may be few and far between. Kamara’s age and declining rushing efficiency are real red flags, but his elite passing-game role keeps him firmly in the RB2 mix in PPR and half-PPR formats. Just temper expectations in standard scoring leagues or if the offense completely stalls.

NO RB Alvin Kamara - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs Atlanta Falcons

With Derek Carr out, Alvin Kamara should get plenty of work. The issue is the offense as a whole, though. We have him at RB22 given the surrounding circumstances. Kamara has been out of practice Wednesday and Thursday due to illness.

Jake Haener was named the starter, and given the state of the offense, it's exceedingly difficult to feel confident about New Orleans sustaining drives. You're starting him in all formats, but expectations have to be low.
