I hope we reward him with a good deal sometime soon.


Not gonna happen, he is about to turn 30. Better enjoy him this year and hopefully next. RB don't last till there 30's or at least long into them.

He's not taking the workload of the normal 30 year old back though. The Saints use a running back by committee format, which is leaving less wear and tear on him. I could see him having a lot left.

This doesn't apply to Pierre. I'd be willing to guess we've extended his career by a minimum of 2 years because he's not a 25 touches/game guy. He's never injured. Didn't have any tread on the tires coming out of college. He'll play until at least 32.
