Saints trade Marshon Lattimore to the Commanders

Washington smoked us in this trade. This has the same to stink to me of trading SP to Denver and people thinking we’ll be great with DA and those draft picks.

Draft picks, not even 1st rounders are worth a player or coach that’s top 5 at their position. Ever.

They are worth that when the player doesn't want to be here anymore, when he's often injured and about to turn 29, and when your team won't likely be contending for the playoffs until that player is 32 or 33. Under those circumstances, you are happy with a top 100 pick and some change in addition to the salary cap space you create to rebuild your team in 2026 or 2027.
