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..

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
