Lattimore never quite lived up to billing at Ohio State. He redshirted his freshman season when the Buckeyes won the national championship, then missed half his redshirt freshman year injured before finally hitting the mark the following season and turning pro. He’s been much more successful in the NFL.

The New Orleans 2017 draft class turned the franchise around and sent the team on back to back deep playoff runs, and Marshon Lattimore was one of the crown jewels. He’s started every game he’s played in two seasons since being drafted, and he’s racked up seven interceptions and forced five fumbles. He made the Pro Bowl as a rookie and looks like he’ll be playing a long, long time.
