That's the first thing I thought as well. I suppose giving up 7 of 9 passes into your coverage for 100 yards and a TD isn't great though. I think we were just highly impressed by his physicality. I think it boils down to this: Breaux needs to be less physical before the ball gets there and Swann needs to tighten up his coverage but keep the physicality if the catch is made. I think we have two very promising CB's in these two.

the td wasn't his fault, if you give any qb over 7 seconds chances are they will burn your top db, plus he look like he was in zone on that coverage to Brown

You're absolutely right. It's a little unfair to Swann, but such is the flaw in PFF's grading system. That's why they aren't gospel truth. We saw what we saw and Swann looks like an absolute stud!
