Singletary: Hudson a better fit for Panthers


Rod Butsecks

Recommended Posts

(By Charles Chandler, [email protected]) New Panthers cornerback/special teamer Marcus Hudson should be a better fit for the Cover 2 defense Carolina employs than he was in San Francisco's 3-4 scheme, says 49ers coach Mike Singletary.p/The more physical he can be, the better, Singletary told the Observer during the NFL meetings in Orlando, Fla., last month. In terms of (playing in) more of a Cover 2, Tampa 2, I think he would really excel. I think it gives him an opportunity to compete and use his tools a little bit more.

i didn't know marcus hudson was expected to be on the field for defense for any significant time. i don't really know anything about him. is he actually in consideration to supplant captain munnerlyn or something?

Richard Marshall insurance plan...

I'm telling you, I really don't see Marshall here next year...

CB1: Gamble

CB2: Munnerlyn

Nickel: Hudson?

interested to see how he looks in preseason... Looks like Singletary wanted to promote Hudson a bit..

Just curious, why not?

In my opinion, letting Marshall go would go against what we've been hearing from Hurney and Morrison, and would go against the whole "young players we've drafted in recent years must step up and be full-time starters" mentality. I know there's more to it than that, but keeping Marshall seems like a no brainer to me.

I would love to keep him, but I don't think he wants to be here, especially with what he thinks he is worth... We'll cut our ties if someone makes him an offer... If they don't, we'll keep him for cheaper than we normally could...

interesting. there's two from the university of south carolina too. i wonder if they do that to bring in more attention and money from north and south carolina fans. would they have picked captain munnerlyn in the 7th round otherwise, or was there someone available who was just as good in their minds?

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
