Marshon Lattimore
Michael Thomas
Alvin Kamara
Three very young players
Three of the best in the league
Already three of the best players we’ve ever had
All three will get paid beaucoup bucks on their next contract
What if we can only afford to pay two of them beaucoup bucks?
Who is the odd man out?
I can make the very easy argument why each has been vital to our success the past couple years and how essential each is to our future
I can make the very easy argument why each would be devastating to lose and impossible to replace
If we absolutely definitely must let one go?
That’s very hard
Honestly I’ve been back and forth and back again and then forth again
At this exact moment my answer is Lattimore
As good as Thomas and Kamara are the emergence of a solid number 2 WR and TE makes them that much better
The name of the game in today’s NFL is offense and even post Brees any offense with those two is a force
I’d hate to lose Marshon, but we’ve been bad on defense before
I also think that our front seven is good and if Davenport continues to grow we can get steady pressure on the QB
Offense puts up points, forces other team to become more one dimensional which allows our pass rush to go hog wild means I believe we could overcome the loss of Marshon more easily than the other two
Not an easy decision by any means and I may come back tomorrow to say I’ve changed my mind
But right now I say keep Thomas and Kamara
