Singletary: Hudson a better fit for Panthers

[Rod Butsecks]

(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?

What rocks is we have TWO guys from NCSU on the roster versus the typical 2-3 Tarholes every year.

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?
