Could the Saints star find his way to Jacksonville this offseason?
At the NFL Scouting Combine earlier this year, Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke made one thing clear: the cornerback room would be getting a makeover.
The Jaguars also spent two draft picks on cornerbacks, taking Florida State's Jarrian Jones in the third round and Ole Miss' Deantre Prince in the fifth. The Jaguars were widely projected to take a cornerback in this year's draft, but they passed on taking the first cornerback of the draft when they traded down from No. 17 to No. 23. By the time they picked at No. 23, only Quinyon Mitchell was off the board. The Jaguars opted again to pass on the cornerback position, taking wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr.
"The top landing spot for Lattimore certainly looks like Jacksonville, where former Saints assistant Ryan Nielsen is the defensive coordinator. The Jaguars didn't get great play at corner last season and then cut veteran Darious Williams. They need their corners to play well; they played man coverage at the third-highest rate of any team last season.
