Alvin Kamara's Fantasy Scouting Report
2018 FANTASY RECAP AND 2019 FANTASY PROJECTION Alvin Kamara was the number #4 ranked RB and the #21 ranked player overall. His elite ranking was helped by his higher games played (15). Based on average fantasy points he is the #5 RB. He peaked early in the season. He averaged 25.3 FPs in his first 4 games and 13.3 FP in his final 5 games. He is young, so his late season drop-off should not be an indicator of an overall downward trend heading into next season. Based on a relatively low standard deviation, Kamara can be considered a consistent fantasy player. Our projected ceiling for Kamara when he 'goes off' is 36 fantasy points (his average is 18.2FPs) with a floor of 4 points. Alvin Kamara (2019 Season Projection: 218 Rush, 944 Yards, 8.3 TDs, 89 Rec, 783 Yards, 4.2 TDs) is projected to deliver comparable fantasy value in 2019 where his projection based rank has him as the #3 player at his position. SportsLine has the best NFL picks and Daily Fantasy Lineups. In the off-season check out our coverage of all major leagues (MLB, NBA, NHL, Horses, NASCAR, and Golf). STATISTICAL IMPROVEMENT OVER LAST SEASON He has demonstrated the solid year-to-year improvement that you look for in a younger player. His average Fantasy points increased by 25% this season. PAST FANTASY PERFORMANCE (2017 TO 2018) Alvin Kamara played in 15 games in 2018. He was the #4 ranked fantasy RB based on total fantasy points. He averaged 18.2 FP per game (#5 ranked based on average). He is holding steady season-to-season in terms of per game fantasy ranking. He is stronger in certain categories which are bolded below. DAILY FANTASY SEASON RECAP He averaged 20.9 FD points and 24.2 DK points per game. We used his second highest game as his ceiling and second lowest as his floor. On DraftKings his floor was 10.8 and on FanDuel it was 10.3 fantasy points. He had a relatively high ceiling. On DraftKings it was 44.1 and on FanDuel it was 31.6 FPs. He has had more bad FanDuel games (below average by 20%) than good games (20% above average), and the same was true on DraftKings.
