Saints trade 5th for CB

This is a solid depth pick. If Thomas or Ambrose go down he could stop the bleeding.
It decreases the DESPERATION factor of reaching for a CB in the draft.
After Hall and Robinson, the next level of CB\'s is about 6-8 deep.
When pick 18 comes around, we can now go CB, LB, WR or DT or whatever.
Other teams don\'t know who we may pick now.
He gives us a little more draft day flexibility. If only a little.

Bottom line: Does his signing make our CB\'s a better overall unit?
I think so. Another team\'s starter for the price of a scrub?
How can anyone slam this signing?
