Alabama continues to load up on running backs with the addition of Alvin Kamara of Norcross, Georgia. A speedy back with great hands, Kamara can not only carry the ball but catch it out in the flat and make moves after the catch. Kamara’s speed will serve him well in the SEC.

One of the smaller backs on the Crimson Tide roster at 5-foot-10, Kamara is a fleet back as opposed to the power back Tide fans are used to. But in the fourth quarter when opposing defenses are worn down by the punishing Alabama running attack, Kamara could be someone that runs (or catches) for big gains.
