Saints trade Marshon Lattimore to the Commanders (8 Viewers)

Yea. When you hit the franchise QB lottery, your outlook change drastically. A window that wasn't there 2 months ago suddenly opened.

Agreed. Also having a QB on a rookie deal is when you can afford to get aggressive with your cap/roster.

I'm not sold on the Commanders yet. They have definitely improved, but its a bit early for them to trade away multiple draft picks to go all in this year. This is the first Saints trade I have felt good about in a long time.

Should give the Saints more incentive to play hard to win against the Commanders in about 6 weeks when they come to the Dome.

Good trade, needed to be done, but damn I still hate losing Marshon.

We finally got to experience a true shutdown corner in black and gold. What a fun run.

I agree but how many games has he missed in the last 3 years.

 

[Craig Walker]

I'm fine with it, he stayed hurt.

 

[Tulsa Saint]

i understand what ur saying. but u actually like our chances of drafting a great player there? lol

I don’t know

What I DO know is we are in much better shape draft wise than a couple hours ago with actual picks to use to build depth which is sorely lacking.

Exactly!!!!

Why do I feel Loomis won’t keep all these picks

 

[Clintonrebel]

ya u get lucky once every 10 years i guess

I scrolled through the last ten years drafts to prove you wrong. And I did see a handful of good 3rd and 4th round picks. But I was also amazed at how many of those names never made a roster. Maybe luck does have something to do with it.

 

[Tulsa Saint]

6 picks in the first 4 rounds should get you contributors.

I hope they completely overhaul the scouting department.

Hey may not be making those picks for all we know months from now.

 

[gregh]

you can take those 3 and move up to a late second rounder if they want, but id rather pick players they need alot of youth.

watch Lattimore get a pick six on carr

 

[jbourque]

If injured Lattimore is a 3rd round draft value then all we get is a 6th for him…in essence. Washington has to be pretty happy about this low risk trade.

 

[nolaswede]

Does it hurt? It doesn’t bother me. The Saints are going nowhere for the next 2 years, Lattimore is going to a better place. I’m rooting for the Commanders because I love Jayden Daniels anyway, just more to root for.

As for the Saints, they get much needed cap relief and more picks.

Both teams win here. That’s rare.

Do we really get cap relief? Either way the trade makes sense for us.
