I udnerstand that Lucas had a bad year, and got beat a lot. But we got hardly any pressure giving Qb's all the time they want to pick us apart. Im not saying trading Lucas is a bad idea IF we have a replacement in mind. Can Marshall really replace Lucas? Im not sure he will do a lot better. I think he's good and ill give him a chance, but really the results will be the same.

As far as the thread title. Who will take over for Marshall if he moves into #2? CJ Wilson cannot be our nickel corner! He sucks! Teams will continuosly pick on him, and slot recievers will eat him alive! I cringe everytime i see him on the field period. The FO better have an answer for our nickel spot, hell i like Wesley better than CJ Wilson! Id much rather keep Lucas if they plan on moving CJ Wilson into the rotation...

I remember hearing that some in the Panthers organization see C.J. Wilson as a CB of the future. I don't know if the changes to the defensive staff have changed the outlook, though.

The coaching staff had been real big on Wilson all year last year. They wanted to cut him, but he just kept improving and making a case for himself. Most of that defensive staff is gone, but I bet Fox likes him and is willing to give him a shot. I don't think he is that bad, and heck, he is so young that it is impossible to judge his talent level based on very limited playing time in his first season.

How much did he play at CB last year? They will not just throw him in there.

If I can remember he rarely played, and was inactive for most games. Other posters made it seem like he was in the game a lot. According to NFL.com, he played in only 4 games, and probably was limited in those games. I don't see how anyone can say they cringed when he came in the game based on that limited experience.

Exactly so how would he become a start this year.

He played in 2007 also, he has more than 7 games under his belt, as well as preseason...He's not good, and i will be very upset if we salary dump Lucas moving this inexperienced corner into the field to get destroyed. Other than his contract year Lucas has been much better than Gamble, but thats an arguement for another day...I just dont want our best CB to leave without a good replacement, or good young guys moving up which other than Marshall i dont see on our roster..

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
