Marshall is not close to the worst starting cb in the league. I hate these kind of stats, too many variables are involved. He did play bad, so did most of everyone else too.

Marshall was far and away the weak link in the Secondary. Now he wants lotz o' moneyz. Get this guy outta here.

....god I still get chills from Larry in 08

Fitz spent most of the game away from Gamble... because smart coaches gameplan to exploit the other team's tendencies, tendencies like keeping the best corner on one side of the field instead of matching him up with the best receiver.

/sarcasm directed toward that aspect of Foxball.

Trust me on this one - Marshall will get paid a lot more than everyone thinks from another team. Not saying he is worth it, but there are a lot more average than good corners in the NFL. This is why they get paid so much. I would put him at above average.

Sorry didn't see this posted. Getting rid of this guy will seriously help out D.. yikes.

The worst

Richard Marshall(notes), Carolina Panthers: 71.3%, 72 burns on 101 targets, 765 yards, 5 TD, 7 passes defensed

Marshall's been doing the contract dance with the Panthers for a few years now, but his numbers just don't justify the inflated opinion. Carolina was horrid last year, but its front seven was surprisingly good, leaving most of the blame for these stats on the man himself.

I'd day Marshall was average to above average at the nickel spot.....below average as a #2.

He had a pretty down year last year, but I would still put him at average or maybe a little above that. I wouldn't say there are forty five guys better than him, maybe thirty or thirty five, which would make him an average number two.

Capt is better than him....I think there are a lot more Capt caliber players in the league that bump Marshall easily out of the top 45. I think Capt is better nickel and #2 than Marshall.

Nathan Vasher just got a 5-yr deal at $28mil. I don't think Marshall is as good as Vasher. Vasher is a former pro-bowler. I guarantee, Marshall thinks he deserves more than that.

Ken Lucas was signed with us in 2004 at 5 years $36mil.

Ken Lucas was good then though.....Marshall has never sniffed where Lucas was at that point in his career.

Captain is what Marshall used to be: a guy that looks good in nickel packages and as a spot starter early in his career. I wouldn't say there are forty some guys who consistently started at a corner spot for multiple seasons that are proven better than Marshall.

People act like Marshall is worse than he is because we watch him every game. He may go somewhere and be overpaid, but I would guess that he is a league average second corner.

      Yes, more recently. The way duke fans act you'd think they'd won five of the last ten or something crazy when they've actually won zero if the last ten. They haven't even even played in a championship ship game in the last decade. Carolina has played in three. For all the elite NBA talent that has come through Durham, duke is in a woeful championship drought. Duke fans used to talk all kinds of poo about how Carolina failed to win titles with Stackhouse/Wallace and Carter/Jamison and honestly they had a point. We should've gotten a title or two out of those teams. But man, duke's current run of elite talent with no titles puts that to shame.

      A Zietlow (observer) 3 centers to consider for draft

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      In response to mailbag questions about drafting a center from Observer, Zietlow gives this infO  From Alex The Panthers, after all, aren’t going to be as stacked with interior offensive linemen who can be converted into centers as they were last year. Cade Mays is already gone to Detroit. Austin Corbett moved on to Buffalo. Brady Christensen might still come back, but his future is murky too … and he ruptured his Achilles five months ago.   Keylan Rutledge. The guard out of Georgia Tech has received high marks in the pre-draft process, and if he drops to the Panthers at No. 51 somehow, they should take him. He worked at guard and center during the 2026 Senior Bowl.   Jake Slaughter. The 6-foot-5, 303-pound center out of Florida really impressed at the NFL Scouting Combine in February, notably with a 5.1-second 40-yard dash time. He’s a center by trade, and coach Dave Canales likes athletic centers who can get to the second level of the defense. Slaughter is projected to be a third- or fourth-round pick.   Billy Schrauth. Another draft, another Notre Dame draft pick?At least, it’s possible with Schrauth, the 6-foot-5, 310-pound interior offensive lineman and team captain. He spent most of his college career at guard, but reports indicate a transition to center would be easy for him. He’s projected to be a Day 3 pick.
