The difficulty is that even on his "off days," he's still better than past Saints DB's. But I do agree with the motivation point and I believe Latt even said it himself in 2018.

Its frustrating because he can be such a great player but only shows up now and again. Like he'll get in Mike Evans head and make him drop 3 passes, but then gets burnt by guys like Hunter freaking Renfrow and Adam Lazard.

Good player, not worth elite money.

We'll definitely be drafting CB at No 1 !

Maybe. But Plaxico did jail time and missed a season for a gun, so who knows. Fricken Martha Stewart did jail time for accepting a stock tip, you never know whether a celeb will get a slap on the wrist of be made an example of. My issue with Lattimore is I feel he plays when he feels like it. Elite talent with wavering motivation. We don't know who misses more time for sure, but we know Watson plays the more valuable position, which tends to have longer career, and has played more consistently.

Plaxico discharged a gun in public and accidently shot himself in the leg. Different circumstances.

“How much weed are you smoking bro? You been smoking all day?”

I knew it.

Re: Marshon Lattimore Arrested

Well, at least he understood to comply with the officers and not do anything to provoke a deadly reaction...

We can debate whether smoking weed or carrying a side arm deserves to be harassed by the cops (for what it's worth my only real issue is smoking weed AND driving)...

But this latest trend of suicide by non-compliance with an officer(s), challenging them on the street along with an ulterior motive'd agenda media is the problem...

Comply and challenge in proper forum of a courtroom...

When I lived in New Orleans for about ten years, this was actually very commonplace with many of the players - it just never got reported...

Once it's out there, then the team and the league have to get involved...

Dated a girl for a while and her grandpa needed to take two weeks for surgery, so I pulled his evening security shifts at 333 St. Charles Ave...

So I'm chasing vagrants out of the building, one would occupy, two more would sneak in, and then in runs a certain DB on the Saints at the time, high as all get out...

Don't know how, but he got to the roof and ran the perimeter; I'm deftly afraid of heights so I said F' this, he's dead to me; another player called team security...

Four of NOPD and a retired NOPD detective (Saints security) secured him, asked if there was footage and I be a fan and not leak and took him to dry out...

He played the next day and got smoked all day in the nickel as he was subbing for an injured player...

You'd think after years of this teams would get a plan in place that'd be a little more than watching Nancy Reagan-inspired infomercials Don't Smoke Dope...

This et al reasons are why I've little respect for NFL front office people; sniveling up to athletes and enabling them is stupid, many need strict boundaries, discipline...

Update:

Agents think they're doing their clients good by keeping them out of OTAs and team structured activities, well it's old and cliche', but idle minds are the Devils' playground

I agree 100 percent. It might have been a totally diferent outcome in most parts of the South.
