New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said on the Dan Patrick Show Monday morning that had their 2017 first-round pick, cornerback Marshon Lattimore, been off the board by the 11th pick, the Saints would have drafted quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

I missed that, but how serious was that response on the Dan Patrick Show? This was pre-draft 2018 when this interview occurred. They wanted everyone to think they were "still" shopping for a QB. You know that you can never believe ANYTHING a team says prior to a draft. Payton knew those rumors from the 2017 draft were still out there. Why not use them to your advantage.

Right?
