Re: CB P.J. Williams set to rebound in 2016
Loved the swagger from PJ @ Fl State. He should have his chance to shine this camp however don't be surprised to see the Saints FO draft a corner by the 3rd round. The depth at the position is still concerning for me.
I bet Ireland isn't ruling out Alexander or the fast kid from Houston in the first . Boy I could see JP throwing his flat screen out of the window if we selected a corner back at #12 . |

If this guy can deliver like we hope, having the likes of Breaux, Keenan and PJ would not be awful by any means.
Hopefully Keenan is back to full health. |

Re: CB P.J. Williams set to rebound in 2016
We have a lot of talent at the CB spot, there are 5 solid players there whom could all start and perform well enough. Obviously DB40 and Lewis are the stand out guys and should start.
The issue is the health of all these guys. Every one of them missed time at some point last year due to injury. In addition, you have 3 of them who are complete question marks. We don't know if they will come back and play at the same level. |

Swann should give up the game. Williams will boom or bust this year. If Williams and Sunseri can stay healthy, the back end of the defense will be much improved.

The key to a teams success depends a lot on being able to stay healthy. |

I'm slightly optimistic about the possibilities for our secondary. Staying on the field is the hardest part of an NFL players job.
