Delvin Breaux says he's on track to return to Saints once he's eligible

Harris seems like the weak link at corner and will be dropped even farther down the pecking order. We still need a corner that can cover the slot receivers even though we like the three safety set.

But hey, if he wins out in practice and performs on the field - it's all about getting the best cornerbacks out on the field...

So true!

Can't help but wonder if Breaux or another CB moves to Safety opposite Marcus Williams...

If we could get Lattimore, Breaux and Crawley out there together, we could get a defense worthy of a nickname. Someone earlier noted that Breaux is more athletic than Crawley and he is but Crawleys A+ ball skills make him tough to replace. I assume Breaux could guard some bigger WRs better than Crawley but Crawleys gonna pick the ball off more often in my opinion.

Not a chance. Breaux doesn't have the ability to free lance and/or tract the ball from center field.

We can bring back 2 players from IR now... any thoughts on who else might be ready? Strief?

More aletic then put him in the slot to manup on the backs coming out of the backfield or tight ends releasing up the seam. Tag them at the line so no free releases that will help throw the offenses timing off and give the dogs more time to hunt.
