The hyperbole of fantasy analysts is most notable when we’re hyping a particular player or team. Frequently, we must walk it back after a couple of weeks. Conversely, there are times when we’re too pessimistic about a team and must upgrade our expectations. We may have reached that point with the Saints. Granted, it was a low bar, but they haven’t been the worst. So … progress!
Nonetheless, I’m not hopeful overall for New Orleans’ chances to get a win in Buffalo. But I am encouraged by Kamara’s chances for garbage time points. He’s still the undisputed RB1 with 80 percent of the snaps and has been rather efficient as a runner. His 50 carries have netted 186 yards and a score. That’s good news against a leaky Bills run defense. While Kamara’s target share is well below his career averages, he should see a few pass-catching opportunities with the Saints likely in catch-up mode. For fantasy managers uninspired by their Kamara draft choice, Week 4 could be a time to rejoice.
