here's some opinion from rotoworld.com:

Either Carolina is just being cheap or it saw something bad from Marshall in 2009 that we didn't. As a starting corner one one of the league's top pass defenses, Marshall picked off four passes, recovered two fumbles, and has always been a big tackler. The 25-year-old is likely to draw interest.

Honestly, as long as we have the opportunity to match any offer, I don't see much of a problem, unless you all know something I don't. (And just a heads up-- excuse my grammar. i get burned out from writing papers, taking exams, and such. the Net is the only place that I can get away with this. fair warning.)

I'm saying bait. Which, if true and successful in good ways, makes the decision to make him the starter look like shear providence on the part of the front office. If nobody bites, he battles Munnerlyn for the start. Either way, I think it's the right move. He was most certainly not the most important RFA we had this year, and any tender at all on him indicates that we still place a bit of importance on him (see Lloyd, Rhys).

munnerlyn is not starting material at any position other than nickle or dime back at this point, IMO.

Agreed, but who else would he battle? Wilson? Weasly? Not much better on either count if you ask me. Unless some magical steal happens in the draft, Munnerlyn is the 3rd best CB on roster, and the only threat to Marshall starting if he stays.

right, but i don't see them battling for the spot... unless marshall does a ken lucas, he's got that position nailed down. munnerlyn starting would mean absolute rape

I hope he stays. It might be a way to find out his market value. Hopefully, a deal with him could be worked out that is good for the panthers and Marshall. He may think his value is one thing while the panthers think it is something else.

last year he was open that he wanted a fat contract.

Remember the intended Martin to be a CB, they moved him to saftey because of injuries even though he wasn't that impressive at CB. They'll still might move him back over.

I wish we would get big body to go on the outside. Marshall and Munnerlyn are suited to the nickle. Marshall is great as a nickelback because we don't give up much in run D when we go to nickel. He gets taken advantage of by bigger guys.

It was a dumb move as we don't have a reliable backup. Unless we plan on making a move for Dunta Robinson, we are not going to find a CB in the 2nd round that will be as good as Marshall.

Pretty pissed..

Umm...the captain would like to say something about that. I personally don't think Munnerlyn played badly at all last year and don't forget we still have Sherrod Martin we could insert at FS and have Godfrey play corner or vice versa.

      Jake in his prime was a gutsy QB. But just like with even someone like Cam. Father time is undefeated. It's very unfortunate we have a guy who is only 24 years old that has an equivalent arm to that. Absolutely blows my mind that our brain trust lacked the basic common sense to value arm talent when making a massive trade with ramifications for years to come. Unforgivable incompetence.

      Jake, to me, will always hold a special place in my heart.  I really feel like for his era, he deserved way more love than he got, and should’ve had more than his one Pro Bowl.  He was a gamer with an underrated rocket arm. but let me tell you, after his Tommy John surgery, when he came back, I can’t remember who it was against, but it think it was a division game, he threw a ball that was supposed to be a throw away, as I think he was under pressure, and that poo floated forever and died right at the boundary where a defender ran over and picked it off.  One of the worst throws I ever saw.  His arm just wasn’t the same after the injury and surgery.  All that to say, that’s what almost every Bryce throw to the sidelines looks like to me.

      And again, when watching him in college he had one distinct trait that I feel makes a franchise QB - on those plays when everything breaks down around him, he creates one on his own.  He doesn’t rely on or need everyone else.  That play last night on the final drive where he was getting sacked and threw it to Diggs before his knee hit the ground?  He does similar things all the time.  Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, etc., they all do it.  It’s what made Cam so special. but we picked a guy that’s the opposite of that.  He desperately needs someone else to make a play for him because he can’t.  Even that play yesterday on 4th down to Horn.  That wasn’t a great pass.  The defender was late and came down to make a play in the ball and Bryce threw it high and outside where Horn had to leave his feet and really use strong hands to catch it.  We relied on a 5’9” rookie playing in his first pro game to make THAT catch at THAT time bc of the early turnovers and a not great throw.  Crazy.
