Frederick showed flashes, Dixon will greatly improve with Allen back, PRob is ... well PRob and Corey White is a nickle at best.
We need depth at this position. |

Re: Delvin Breaux
First of all, restructuring ALWAYS works in the player's favor. That is why it is a last resort of sorts. Secondly, Galette is due a $12.5M roster bonus meaning a cap hit in 2015 of the same. If I'm not mistaken, the Saints have the option of converting the roster bonus into a signing bonus which can then be prorated over the final five years of his contract, thus reducing the 2015 hit to $2.5M, or an immediate cap saving of $10M off this upcoming cap. Galette still gets his full $12.5M right away, therefore he's happy.

Agree we need another CB through FA. I'd give Breaux a season to learn. How funny would it be if one day SJB and Delvin Breaux are our starting CBs? |
