Saints RB Alvin Kamara is expected to miss at least a month with a sprained MCL suffered in Tuesday’s joint practice with Dallas. No major structural damage, but Week 1 in Detroit is in real jeopardy and he is a candidate to open on IR, which would cost him the first four games. DFS angle: this is a season-shaping vacancy, not a one-week fill-in. Kendre Miller and the rest of the New Orleans backfield inherit a full workload in a Week 1 matchup, and cheap volume is the single most valuable thing you can find on an opening-weekend slate. Get the depth chart sorted now, before the price catches up. (source: ESPN, CBS Sports, Yahoo Sports)
