Dean Marlowe - a UDFA who is under the radar?

[ecu88]

Could almost see them counting him a CB at this point.  Unless I'm forgetting someone, he's the reason Carolina only carried 4 CBs into the playoffs (White, Norman, Bene, Byndom), though they could view him as a safety again now that CB depth has improved.

peanut?

SHHHH! Shut up and let this guy make our PS!

I called Marlowe making the roster a while ago. Kid is a playmaker.

same here

Great PS project player, hope no claims him. I expect 3-5 claims, panthers should have one hell of a PS...... Which means supar owl!!!

Coleman

Harper

Boston

Marlowe?

Why can't I think of the other fourth guy? The name escapes me. I know Lester is likely gone but who am I missing?

In case it was not anwered-Colin Jones

Marlowe is a stud. 

Makes sense.

It's interesting Voth said that, because like you said, I trust in Voth.

We are so focused on the offense this offseason, we kinda forgot about him.  Supposedly his technique needs some work,  '

I think it is funny since we have had so much luck with Undrafted free agents and street free agents, we are actually looking for them to step up and battle for roster spots.  Personally, I would have probably taken Marlowe before Mayo if I was going fishing in small ponds.

[MV%doe]

Giants will claim him.

[Jeremy Igo]

Jones is injured. 

 

that leaves only one safety in front of him friday night. 

 

thus... extra snaps. 

 

Id be shocked if he makes the 53.

My list was referring to last year's CBs.

oh, quick read didn't know lol.

OK, I think I understand now why Marlowe has a good shot of making the team.  Basically, he played in place of Colin Jones on Friday night.  So.... if Colin Jones' injury could possible linger on, it could well be that Marlowe gets the spot above Lester or Ball.  But, this might mean carrying 5 safeties, which would totally screw up most of our roster projections.  Yikes. 

These injuries to key players make roster predictions impossible!  LOL.  Gettleman deserves a raise.
