I'd explain why this doesn't equate, but won't.


Antonio Pittman is certainly the exception and I highly doubt the situation would be repeated, but there is the precedent.

Draft picks still have to produce in camp and the preseason, unless they're 1's or 2's.

Pittman was cut because a UDFA from the same class beat him out.

Kamara's only competition is Cadet, and we already know his ceiling.

The ultimate reason Pittman didn't stay with the Saints is because Pierre Thomas out-played him in the preseason and wowed everyone, especially since he was an undrafted free agent. Pierre essentially took over the role Pittman was going to play for the Saints.

The Saints didn't sign any undrafted free agent running backs this offseason, so I think Kamara is safe.
