Neaux Meaux Kamara ... it'd been cool to have two Kamara's on the roster.

It'll be interesting to see if our UDFA Latu makes a bigger impact than Mo Kamara

I think the Saints have moved on from Andrus.

They’re bringing in every street tackle NOT named Peat.

Via Nick Underhill

Mickey Loomis on Sirius XM: “I'm not actively trying to trade Marshon. Marshon is such a good player. He's an elite corner.”

He added if they get an offer they can’t refuse, all players are available.

So I'm not trying to trade him, but I'll tell everyone he I'd available.

His number has already been reassigned to the vaunted rookie.

A blockbuster offer for Lattimore would be TWO 7th round picks. He is a $14 million declining corner who is at this point only decent, has missed half the last two seasons, and is likely to decline more. There is not value there unless the Saints pay some of his salary, and then the value is in how much they pay.

I have more hope for Nick Lalos than Foskey. Draft investment was the only reason Foskey made the team over Lalos last year but he didnt do anything with the opportunity.

Even if Lattimore were a declining corner he's still better than any CB to wear the Fleur.
A couple of injuries, bad as they might've been, doesn't mean Marshon is ready to hang up the cleats.

Regarding Lalos, I agree. After he went ham in a preseaon game last year I wanted to see him on the field more. The coaches obviously see something I don't.

Lattimore's injuries have been very unlucky ones, especially the spleen one, and I wouldn't count those againts him going forward.

Underhill and Triplett both were going on and on last training camp how Lattimore was far and away the best player out of the whole roster through camp, so why would you want to get rid of someone like that?!

I get that if the relationship between the player and the staff/FO has gotten too bad to continue - you try to find a way to move forward, but there's really no hard evidence of that having happened.

Having too many playmakers to field at once on the backfield isn't really a problem, since injuries do happen and you need quality guys to step up in those circumstances.

I remember not too long ago, before Lattimore was picked, the Saints went into a season with Breaux and Moore as their starting outside corners, so I'm very happy to have all these quality guys competing for starting spots now.
