Alvin Kamara is wild card in the NFL draft, who has high potential but is also a risky pick out of Tennessee.

Kamara dreamed of playing for the University of Alabama, but his dream was cut short when he was put on the back burner behind a skew of talented backs.

Luckily, his opportunity at Tennessee saw him emerge as a matured rusher and an NFL ready player.

The Volunteers running back averaged 6.96 yards per touch (rushing and receptions) and scored 23 touchdowns. Not too shabby for a once, back of the line rusher.

Not only is Kamara a standout player, but he’s a standout person as well. Off the field he is as clean as a whistle and has all of the mental attributes looked for in an NFL player.

Overall, he would be a clean addition to a New York Giants franchise negatively affected by the Josh Brown case last season.
