The Kansas City Chiefs have reportedly inquired about Marshon Lattimore. Not only should the New Orleans Saints answer the call, they should try to make that deal happen for the right price.

When Dennis Allen was the head coach, that likely wouldn't have happened. Allen understood where he stood, and he couldn't afford to tear it down. His job was at stake. With Allen no longer with the team, the organization needs to be looking towards the future.

Trade away pieces and collect picks should be the mission with the trade deadline approaching. Chase Young, in addition to Lattimore, would be the ultimate trade piece. Young could be an even better piece than Lattimore.

Lattimore proved he can still be one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. Unfortunately for him and the Saints, Lattimore has been dealing with injuries for the past three seasons.

If you can get a mid round selection for either of these players it would be smart to make it happen. New Orleans needs to accumulate talent, and trading players to get picks and get younger may be the way to go.
