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..

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
