It's a no brainer... Trade Armstead, keep Ramczyk and Lattimore with restructures and/or extensions. They may only be able to hold on to Ramczyk, however.

Exactly what I was thinking also.

I'd extend all three.

Age on Armstead, he’s getting injured more often. Plus, one thing the Saints have done well over the CSP tenure is draft and develop offensive linemen. I’m taking the trade value and cap relief wrt Armstead and getting younger and cheaper. I’m trusting the draft/develop process.

Ram, Lat and Arm - in that order. Seems simple to me.

Trade Armstead. He's 30 and has an injury history. Surprisingly he's been healthier lately but we can't count on him. I believe his value is in a trade. Move Ram to the LT and draft another tackle in the first round. You win in the trenches baby! Keep stocking up on them.

Ideally you keep all three if not possible agree Ramczyk, Lattimore then Armstead. Problem with Armstead you are paying top 5 LT money for a man that'll probably play 12/13 games a season

Keep Lattimore, you want to keep somebody strong a new coach can build around. HAVE to keep Rami, it’s a no brainer. Love Armstead and he’s a great player but injury concerns make him a liability given our cap situation.
Try to keep Williams too but you can’t have it all.

I'd be more inclined to move tumbleweed PEAT before Armstead.

AP has been just as injury prone as TA and not nearly as dominant.

But hey, that's just me.
