I think this could be a very interesting competition. Most of us can agree about the top two:

Lewis
Browner



But after that, we've got a gaggle of guys, some of whom we know very little about. Where do you guys think they end up slotted? Obviously they will not all make the roster but let's just order them as if they do:

Williams
Wilson
Dixon
Breaux (worth noting he is listed as a DB and not a CB on the team website...)
Frederick
SJB
Swann


This is pretty hard. It gets a little murky considering some of these guys will probably be slotted into different areas (nickel vs outside) so just do your best

I have a feeling SJB and Swann get the boot. Hate to see it especially with SJB being a second round pick.

No idea really.

Only thing I hope is that SJB practiced his arse off this off season or his time as a Saints is done.

I feel like Breaux and Williams will get the most playing time outside of the top 2 starters.

PJ is a 1st round talent and Breaux's tape really impressed me.

1 - Lewis
2 - Browner
3 - Williams
4 - Wilson

5 - Dixon, Breaux, Frederick, or SJB

PS - Swann. I think Dixon and Breaux can also be put on PS as well, but I'm not aware of all the rules concerning the PS.

Lewis
Browner
Williams
Wilson
SJB

Breaux goes to the practice squad. Frederick and Swann get cut. No way SJB gets cut he was drafted as a project. Breaux has potential, I'm not really sure why we have Frederick still (don't know anything about him really) and I'm not really sure why we even drafted Swann, although we sacrificed two 6ths for him so they must have liked him.

williams is going to play, he's too good not to see the field as a backup

I say believe your eyes... If SJB showed them enough promise I don't think they would draft 2 corners on top of signing Breaux.. If you're SJB, Frederick, and Dixon you know the club doesn't like something it sees if you bring this much help in the offseason.

I think Breaux and Williams will get the initial looks, especially when you look at Breaux's tape. Swann also will get a good look also. I think it stands

Lewis
Browner
Williams
Breaux
Swann
Wilson
SJB
Dixon
Fredrick

Since Swann is a rookie he'll likely get a contract with the practice squad if he doesn't exceed expectations. Not sure about the rest but I think SJB could surprise some people this season. I see Frederick and Wilson getting cut.

Impossible at this point. We'll go with a "reasons they won't get cut" list, outside of the top two, obviously.

PJ Williams - 3rd round picks don't usually get cut.
Kyle Wilson - decently rated slot corner.
Brian Dixon - played not horrible in spot work last season.
Delvin Breaux - signed a 3 yr contract as a top rated CB from the CFL
Terrence Frederick - See Dixon
Damian Swann - traded back into the 5th to get him
Stanley Jean-Baptiste - ?

As far as physical gifts go, Breaux sticking with the teams would be great. 6'1" 196 lbs. 4.38 veteran combine 40 time, 38" vert and is a physical tackler. The BIGGEST piece of the equation is his determination. I'd be ecstatic to see Chip Breaux attain his life long dream of being in that number.
