Saints Happy Hour: Armstead, Lattimore, and Ramcyzk

If Lattimore is traded, we instantly get worse in the secondary. Janoris Jenkins is also at the tail end of his career. I don’t like the idea of going from really good corner play on both sides to struggling to find at least one who can cover in the next year or so. If it’s a package deal to get a star QB, I could understand a deal like this. Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense to me.

I don't think the FO would trade him just to trade him. If the Saints had all the cap space in the world I'm sure they'd happily pay all of these young studs. But they don't have all the cap space in the world. They're 70 mill in the hole. It doesn't seem like Loomis is going to be able to Loomis his way out of this one and keep everyone. Loomis has a handful of players who are about to command top 5 at their position type money. A few will probably set the market. If they trade Latt it will be because they didn't have a choice.
