Aaron Jones vs Alvin Kamara
Aaron Jones holds a 30.6% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/17/2026
THE CASE FOR JONES
Aaron Jones lands in Minnesota with a real shot at strong volume in 2024. His efficiency remains elite—career 5.0 YPC—and he’s still a weapon as a receiver. The Vikings offense, even post-Kirk, should keep him in scoring range. Age is a concern, but Jones has shown more recent durability than Kamara. He’s a win-now piece with a slightly better situation.
THE CASE FOR KAMARA
Alvin Kamara is a proven PPR monster, leading all RBs in targets since 2017. He owns the Saints’ backfield and remains heavily involved as a receiver. While New Orleans’ offense is shaky, Kamara’s role is safe, especially on passing downs. He’s only slightly younger, but his touch volume keeps him fantasy-relevant.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Lean Aaron Jones—slightly better situation and recent health make him the safer short-term bet.
Neither is ideal; sell for picks or younger RBs if you’re not contending.
The difference is minimal—trade value is nearly interchangeable.
