I wouldn't say he floated his way through TDI..., TDWT maybe due to the help of Sierra, Cody proved himself pretty valuable up until Paintball Deer Hunter. He was skilled in the dodgeball challenge and he accidentally helped his sinking team members in Up the Creek.

Yes, we all know of the floating that occured in TDWT (he barely sang too) but regardless Cody was one of the most well-developed characters of the season. And you have to give him some credit for the Japan episode and Greece's Pieces at least.
