Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

This Kenyan Drake signing earns a B+ CVI and represents a solid value pickup for whichever team lands the veteran running back. At just $0.8M annually, Drake provides excellent depth piece production at a bargain-basement price point that's essentially risk-free for any NFL roster. The former Alabama standout may be past his prime years when he flashed legitimate starter upside with Arizona, but he's proven he can still contribute as a reliable third-down back and emergency option when called upon. The minimal financial commitment means there's virtually no downside to this deal — if Drake exceeds expectations and carves out a meaningful role, it's found money, and if he struggles, teams can move on without any salary cap consequences. For a depth piece at running back, securing someone with Drake's experience and proven NFL track record at less than $1M per year is smart roster construction that every contender should be pursuing.

Performance Analysis

Kenyan Drake earns an F grade as a veteran running back whose career has wound down from its peak. Drake had his best years in Arizona, where his speed and receiving ability made him a dynamic offensive weapon. The explosive plays that defined his prime have become fewer and farther between, and being a free agent at this point suggests the market has largely moved on. His career has been a solid one — multiple 1,000-yard seasons and genuine playmaking ability — but the current version is well below starter caliber. If he catches on somewhere, it would be as a veteran depth piece and mentor.
