5. Alvin Kamara – RB – New Orleans Saints

Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara are among one of the best running back duos in the league, but it is clear Kamara is still the most talented. The second-year man out of Tennesse had an even more impressive 2018 than he did during his rookie season in 2017 as he finished the year second in touchdown runs with 14. Kamara is electric, no matter how he gets the ball. He is deadly on the ground or through the air.

You can expect the Saints to call his number a lot this weekend against the Rams. He was a huge reason for their success earlier in the year against the Rams. In their week 8 matchup against the Rams, Kamara totaled over 100 yards from scrimmage and three total touchdowns. If the Saints want to win this game, they will need a repeat performance from Kamara.
