If he’s traded, it’s unlikely to be because of compensation, and more likely because of a strained relationship / cap relief.
To anybody who reads that and thinks I’m certain Lattimore is a problem, I’m not. What I’m saying is no team is eager to trade a high performing starter for a mid pick so it’s always for some other reason, and that’s usually because of some kind of breakdown in the relationship and/or money related.
If the team lets him go for an unattractive deal, you can bet there’s more going on.
