5 CBs. Two of which won't be available of course for the Saints game.

So they will be forced to play these guys for probably 75 % of the defensive snaps:

Byron Maxwell, 3rd year Clemson
Jeremy Lane, 2nd year NW State (La.)

I expect the Seahawks to play a lot of zone, so I expect the Saints to be scheming for heavy zone defense.

Go back and watch the final 4 games from last year when both Thurmond and Browner were out and Lane and Maxwell were called into duty. You won't see a lot of zone, and I wouldn't expect to see much this year either. Certainly the Saints have a better passing attack than the teams we played then, but we are built to play press man, and even our backups are geared that way.
