Very slim chance IMO that Cadet is cut. but remember, this is a guy taken in Payton's suspension year and he hung on last year by a thread in the preseason by all reports.
I think Payton warmed up to him more as the year went on, but I'm not convinced he's 100 percent secure.
I think a lot of the 2012 class suffers from that. Like Nick Toon. Corey White actually improved after 2012 but that's about it.
EDIT: Akiem Hicks too

“He’s a guy that can run the routes (Sproles) did,” Payton said of Cadet. “He is a utility player that has gotten better at the core skill set of just being a runner but is very comfortable when it comes to being a receiver out the backfield.”
quote:
“We’ve carried and had quite a bit of depth at that position,” Payton said. “We’ve always felt it’s important.”
quote:
Cadet did well enough in games and practices to convince Payton he’s a possibility to ease the effects of Sproles’ absence, the coach said. Payton had no qualms declaring that Cadet would have the chance to be more involved in the running, passing and kickoff return games, and he’d contend to field punts full-time.
“With regards to his touches, with regards to his opportunities, Travaris is a guy that played and is now going (to do so more),” Payton said. “He’s someone that’s very comfortable in that role.”

#Saints ST coordinator Greg McMahon said he hates to use word "replace" with Darren Sproles. But said team excited about Travaris Cadet.
There is no way Cadet does not make the team. Sorry folks.
