53 Man Roster

I see it this way.. 

Russell is young and has shown flashes. INT last year showed he can make impact plays at this level. But there's nothing there to suggest he would be able to start for us in a pinch. Not yet anyway. So he's a solid prospect. 

Benwikere caught our coaches eyes with his playtime in Carolina. He has several NFL starts under his belt despite only being 25. However, what happened in Carolina (giving up 300 yards to Julio Jones and getting cut) damaged his mental game. If he's able to recover from that damage, he'd be an excellent addition to our CB room. So he is also a solid prospect.

Bottom line: Neither one is a "camp body", but one of them will be cut if push comes to shove. Odds are one of our 7 "roster-quality" CBs will get hurt between now and September. Having guys like Russell and Benwikere around to fill out the bottom of the CB depth chart is smart. 

In an ideal world I'm sure they would love to keep both. It will just depend how and when the injuries fall, and which of these two has a better camp.

If you need to go into the season with 6 CBs, it's always better to bring 7-8 solid options to camp.
