Kamara's ADP has risen despite injury concerns because the market reacts to known information; JJ Zachariason compares this to AJ Brown's trade situation, where the community knew the outcome in advance but the market still moved the player up post-announcement rather than down.NegativeRoleJul 29, 2026
Alvin Kamara is rising in best ball ADP after re-signing with the Saints, with the expectation he'll have a complimentary pass-catching role to Travis Etienne. However, Zachariason kept things neutral with Kamara versus how the market has risen. He notes that Etienne was probably overvalued as a player last year (not in fantasy), with worse success rate than Bijan Robinson. Etienne hasn't seen a 15% target share in his career, and Kellen Moore's offenses historically don't hyper-target running backs. Zachariason understands why Kamara's ADP rose but is cautious because he's now splitting the backfield with a pretty good running back rather than being in a clear lead role.PositiveValueJul 15, 2026
