struck gold with rookie cornerback Marshon Lattimore.
Lattimore, the 11th overall pick out of Ohio State in the 2017 NFL Draft, has been everything the Saints hoped for through the first quarter of the regular season.
"I've been pleased with the performance that we've gotten from Marshon," defensive coordinator Dennis Allen said in a teleconference during the bye week. "Again, he's a guy that opened up the season and he had a couple of rough little moments in the Minnesota game, yet he learned from those experiences, he learned from those plays."
"He's come back and I thought he played a really good game in the New England game and as well I thought he played well the other day against Miami.
