Potential trades

Bullshit, i dont believe that

Good take from Sam Fortier:

@Sam4TR
Commanders adding Marshon Lattimore changes the whole defense. Joe Whitt Jr. can put Benjamin St-Juste on WR2s, move Mike Sainristil back inside and be more aggressive / stop the pass better out of single high.

Holy crap, I will gladly eat my words! Nothing says confidence in how real our success is than our new GM shipping multiple pics for a star

We will see how this trade is eventually graded and how it all pans out, but it's hard to not like it. We basically traded Jahan Dotson and a fourth round pick for a #1 CB who we have control over for the next two and a half years. Throw in the fact that we get a 5th for a 6th on top of that, and I'm more than good with this.

Well, guess I was wrong. We are going to need him right away.

Draft is supposed to be very weak this year-can't post the link yet- Getting a star CB with what we gave up is a steal. I would love to see a veteran OT as insurance for a very late draft choice.

Also, it looks like we still have the 3rd rounder we got from Philly for the Dotson trade, which is huge IMO.

Frankly to compete with the eagles (and Dallas) we needed a huge upgrade to our CB's. We got slaughtered by the eagle WRs last year. So rather than hoping for wild card, they just evened our odds. This is likely a NFC East specific move, and the only one that would have moved the needle. Eagles in 9 days. That is a tall order, hope he's smart!

Another interesting tidbit:

@AdamSchefter
The Saints previously restructured Marshon Lattimore’s contract, meaning Washington is getting the Pro Bowler on a minimum contract for the rest of this season.

Our remaining picks are a little lite:

Round 1
Round 2
Round 3 (from PHI)
Round 5 (from NOLA)
Round 7
Round 7 (from PHI)
Round 7 (from PHI)

He is under contract for 2 years at a pretty high amount, but with all our cap space, that won't be an issue at all. And he will be CB1 in every game he plays for us, for at least the rest of this season (depending on the draft). He is only 28, so this is a solid risk for a team that all the sudden looks like it can win now.
