With the third pick of the third round (67th overall), the Saints selected HB Alvin Kamara from Tennessee.
Kamara is one of the most difficult backs to tackle in the draft class, finishing second in elusive rating after forcing a missed tackle once every 2.92 touches in 2016.
Kamara’s ability as a receiver makes him an excellent fit for the Saints offense; he averaged 2.4 yards per route run last season, the fourth-best mark of any HB in the draft.
