do wonder if we add another first rounder by trading Lattimore or use him and our 14th pick to move up. Underhill and Triplett both said that the recent restructure to Lattimore opens a trade up as a legit possibility

We can’t trade him until after June 1 because we would need to spread the cap hit over 2 seasons.

Yes and I doubt we get a 1st for him.

Jalen Ramsey went for a 3rd. That puts Latt's value around a 5th

I went back and read Nick’s article explaining it. Basically, it’s still expensive but less so than had they just done a basic restructure. They might not get what they want but I bet they move Lattimore before the draft, especially after Jeff Duncan’s article about how the FO feels about Lattimore missing so many games.

Now couple that with the locker room potentially turning on DA…they’re gonna want to limit any kind of animosity towards DA, which means guys like Latt, Jameis and MT are probably gone
