Even Breaux's rookie year, he was up and down. One week he totally dominated and shut down the best receivers in the game. The next week, we get a gif like the tampa game


He struggled early in the year (his rookie year), and then was consistently lock down the rest of the season. He finished top 5 in many corner categories.

PFF

quote:

He has played in 99 percent of defensive snaps this season, and has yet to allow more than 60 receiving yards in a game. In over six games, he’s only allowed 45.2 percent of passes thrown his way to be caught, which is third-best in the league for those who have been thrown at 30 or more times. His 0.88 yards per coverage snap is sixth-best for cornerbacks with 180 or more coverage snaps, and his six passes defended are tied for second-most in the league. This has all added up to a PFF coverage rating of 87.3, which is fifth-best in the league. His story is incredible, but it doesn’t stop at NFL starter. He is playing at a Pro Bowl level (according to our new 2015 Player Grades), and will help keep the Saints’ defense competitive.

We like to do a left right corner anyways, and in today's pass happy NFL, you really need 2 shut down corners.

draft guys who can get to the QB


you can put a tidy, little positive spin job on our DL just like the OP did for the CBs if you wanted. Our D has been historically bad for too long, we need better talent evaluators
