If we lack depth at a position going into the draft then it’s a hole and need to me. It’s not as big of a hole as lacking a starter at OT but lacking depth is still a hole.
I don’t think Lattimore’s roster status is a what if. Lattimore trade talk is a real issue right now in terms of the uncertainty surrounding it from Loomis’ media responses. KAM looks like he was drafted as insurance for any potential moves along with having a capable starter as depth.
