Another writer from Walterfootball picked Sweeting as one of the top UDFA signings:

New Orleans Saints: Rod Sweeting, CB, Georgia Tech

There were some scouts at the East-West Shrine who felt that Sweeting was in the running as the best defensive player there. He had a solid career for Georgia Tech. The 5-foot-11, 189-pounder has quality size and showed some speed with a time of 4.42 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the Combine. Sweeting would be best as a zone or press-man corner in the NFL.

The Saints' secondary had a lot of problems in 2012, so Sweeting could compete for a backup spot behind Keenan Lewis and Patrick Robinson. New Orleans has had a knack for finding some diamonds in the rough and Sweeting is worth watching.

Walter gave us a ton of respect. He's a guy I really value when it comes to knowing football. Has us ranked 6th best in the NFL in his power rankings.

quote:

The Saints have their head coach back. They also have an improved defense. I like the Kenny Vaccaro and John Jenkins selections in the 2013 NFL Draft. It's pretty bogus though that New Orleans didn't have a second-rounder to keep bolstering its stop unit. You'd think suspending Sean Payton for a year would be enough of a punishment for Bountygate.
