He is perfect for this offense. Speed and catching ability reminds me of Kamara. A RB from Bama (Ingram) took AK under his wing when entered the league, AK can do the same thing. Would love him to be the pick at 29.

We need someone to compliment AK, not be the same type of player. Saints need a bruiser.

I’d be fine with this pick. If by some crazy chance bijan r fell to 29 I’d run to the podium.

Gibbs and AK aren't really the same. AK is almost 20 lbs heavier.

Nah, between coming suspension & the inevitable 5 quiet games due to not being 100%, we need Gibbs as his clone filler/replacement.

In a perfect world, a healthy available AK & Gibbs would be a nightmare matchup problem for defenses, much like McCaffery & Deebo Samuel provide for SF.

Their games, tho, are practically identical. WR-like skills and runs with vision & balance.

But Gibbs accelerates much faster, like a Jamaal Charles/Chris Johnson.

you need the guy that run in between the tackle still.

the satellite back is a joker play and crowd pleaser off the high dive.


in great years, the Saints had Ingram and Kamara.

Leading to his contact balance being in another galaxy compared to Gibbs. And I really like Gibbs and would take him at 29 and not think twice.

He is a Kamara clone. Would welcome him in the black and gold.

Gibbs would be as effective as Kamara was/is with injury problems on offense.

mainly O-line.

until we get good luck there on the injury front, we're fricked.

I woukd pass at 29, at 40 I’d think long and hard. The value will be in the third, should be some really good running backs still on the board then.

Achane, Bigsby, Charbonnet.
