It remains to be seen whether the Saints will pair Etienne with Kamara, who turns 31 this summer and whose primary skill is in the receiving game, or move on from the veteran. Either way, though Etienne should improve the Saints’ running game, I don’t love this usage of their capital, especially considering his inconsistent history. The Saints could have picked up a different back in the draft or free agency who still would have improved their running game but for less cash.”
