Swan is one more tap on his noggin away from retirement. The bottom 4 are no more accomplished than any other rookie, so he stands a good chance.

True football player. The type of guy you want and need on your roster. Size has never determined greatness at the CB position.

Re: De'vante Harris - UDFA

We were rated as having the #1 undrafted free agent classes:

Top seven undrafted free-agent classes following 2016 NFL Draft - NFL.com

1. New Orleans Saints

Sean Payton had only five draft picks to work with this year, so a strong UDFA class was a must. The Saints found two potential starters in guards Landon Turner and Avery Young (who could end up at tackle eventually). Offensive tackle Ryker Mathews and centers Jack Allen and Marcus Henry also have NFL futures. Getting receiver Michael Thomas in the second round was a steal, and either Jordan Williams (tough possession receiver) or Jared Dangerfield (taller downfield threat) could make the roster. Depth was needed at defensive back, so picking up De'Vante Harris, Ken Crawley, Trae Elston and Michael Caputo was a haul. Although D.J. Pettway didn't play much at Alabama, his skill set is worth a look.

Re: De'vante Harris - UDFA

Are there any 5-11, 176 pound CB's in the NFL that run a 4.48?

Would he be the smallest CB, also with short arms, in the entire league?

I love me some underdogs but wow, thats small. Sounds strictly like a cover-2 guy at best.
