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.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
