The concerns for giving up a 1st and the necessary contract to sign Butler are legitimate. However, the opportunity outweighs the risk, IMO. I would feel extremely uneasy going into the season with the same group of CBs from last year, plus a rookie or two. Our top 3 CBs (Breaux, Williams, Swann), have missed a combined 65 out of 96 games the last two seasons. The need for a quality CB is there, and we have the opportunity and resources to fill it.

This!!! The Saints absolutely cannot do that. They will absolutely be at the bottom of the barrel again on pass defense.

CB is one of the hardest positions, if not the hardest, to predict in the draft. It is always a crapshoot. I'd prefer the guy that proven he can play at a high level.
