#1) Anna (1)
I'm still high on Anna. I think she is a strong enough player that no matter where she ends up, she'll be able to work with whoever she has with her from the Beauty tribe. She has strong ties to the ladies and Tai. Nick will need her. Anna is set up well. The only thing that could set her back is if she finds herself alone.
#2) Julia (3)
Julia is in a great position as she is unassuming. She is not a big threat to anyone. With the merge on the minds, there are bigger fish to fry. Unless she messes up in a challenge and finds herself as a Brawn target, Julia will do just fine.
#3) Michele (4)
It's getting really old that I keep saying see above. I think for the sake of change, this swap will do everyone good. Michele is like Julia. Unassuming. The difference is that Michele may fight back if anyone tries to mess with her game. It's the Jersey in her.
#4) Neal (5)
Neal could easily take the top spot but the difference between Neal and Anna is that Neal is male and people will assume he is more of an individual immunity threat. The other difference is that Anna appears to have tighter bonds with her tribe. Neal is on a bit shakier grounds.
#5) Jason (2)
Ok here's the thing. Jason could easily have the bottom spot right now. Jason's game depends on where he lands and with who. If he is with Scot, he is a target. If he is with Cydney, he is less of a target. If he is alone, he is an essential swing vote for someone. We know that if Jason doesn't like someone, he will let them know. It will be very interesting to see how he would handle the likes of Debbie, Tai, and some of the other different personalities.
#6) Debbie (10)
How did Debbie land this high? She showed her vulnerable side. She is breakable. While she was disappointed that she went down, it proved that she is not as strong as she thought and will now make others think the exact same thing. She may float her way into the merge and beyond. Looks may be deceiving and she is about to be underestimated.
#7) Tai (6)
Tai was devastated that his cuddle buddy was medivaced. But more so, his biggest ally is gone. Yes, he has the idol but will he know when the right moment is? I'm worried that Tai will get lost in the shuffle.
#8) Abury (8)
We really haven't seen much game coming out of her mouth. She's been a great loyal soldier but that's about it. Again, if the bigger threats become the target, Aubry is safe. But she will be an easy scapegoat for certain people just because she appears weak.
#9) Cydney (11)
Like Debbie, going down may actually be a blessing in disguise for Cydney. But unlike Debbie, if tribal lines are the means for the next vote, Cydney has fewer numbers on her side. Cydney needs to hope she is left alone to become a swing vote. If she is then she will become a very powerful person.
#10) Scot (9)
Scot is a puppet. He needs Jason to survive. If he is alone, he is an incredibly easy target. Just like Cliff was. But if he has Jason, they bash brothers will come out swinging. Scot's game is completely dependent on who he ends up with.
#11) Joe (12)
Joe has been a disappointment for me this season. He just hasn't done much of anything. Who is Joe as a player? Maybe this swap will give us the answer.
#12) Peter (15)
Peter must be thrilled that a swap is coming. This means he can forge new relationships. He just needs to be sure not to offend his fellow Brains because they will throw him under the bus the first chance they get.
#13) Nick (13)
Losing Caleb is actually bad for Nick. Caleb was a slight ally and a perfect meat shield. Nick looks like a threat, despite not actually seeing that quite yet. Nick is on the bottom of the Beauty tribe. He has a unique personality. Nick needs to find the right person to align with otherwise he is an easy vote to go home.
