Richard Marshall

Anyone see him having a great year. He def has ball skills and throwing his way is Dangerous. I think him starting has been a long time coming and he should do well.

[southcakalac]

Yeah I think he will be a good corner. He seems very physical and I think he will be able to help in run support. But he does seem to try for the home run a lot and will put himself in bad position. I do like a guy who will jump a route and get the interception but we all know that jumping a route will get you burned or leave someone wide open.

Pick your poison I guess. All in all he should be a solid corner for years to come.

[Doc Holiday]

he could be great he could also about kill us in some games, he was our most willing DB as far as jumping a route for a INT goes, but the bad side to that is he will also jump a route causing more chances for a deep shot down field, but as the saying goes, nothing ventured nothing gained.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

I think he will have a solid year, I just hope our guys can learn to hang on to the ball. There were SOOOOO many INTs last year that hit our DBs right in the hands, but ended up falling to the ground as an incomplete pass.

[Sam Mills Fan]

He was pretty awful late in the season last year. I hope he's gotten that out of his system.

[CatMan72]

Have seen flashes of greatness and flashes of not-so-greatness... it's hard to guess at this point based on his body of work.

I like the fact that he's aggressive and physical... that's a good place to start from.

[Fox007]

The type of defense we run may be good for his style of play.

We'll have to see how Meeks incorporates it/him. They could both be really good for each other, that's what I tend to think.

[cdandi1]

you would like to think that if he gets a chance to start and gain some experience, he'll learn to jump routes more effectively and take more calculated risks. IMO

[SorthNarolina]

meeks made jason david look good i think he work wonders with marshall

hopefully marshall's regression this year wasn't anything we need to worry about, I'm interested to see how godrey will perform as well with a second year of experience

I've also decided that Alphonso Smith is my guy, if we draft a corner i hope it's him

[L.A. Fanatic]

I would like to think this

[posthumecaver]

For a reason Marshall is a real good corner when he is defending the side line but not so when he is covering the slot receiver....

In his rookie when he subing in Nickel package, Gamble always handle the slot guy...Now because he is replacing Lucas I at the side line I think he is going to have a decent year....

All the plays that are remember from last year that he has beaten was in the middle of the field. The reason may be was size, athletism, it was like 2 cm more and he would deflect the pass...

[GRWatcher]

Marshall can be very good. Alot of how his play went last year depended on the safeties' play and there was a rookie back there. If he starts, he'd better be prepared for a ton of balls thrown his way. I hope Meeks & crew can successfully teach him more of the basics and how to better read the offenses, IMO that's what he's missing. To use his speed to his advantage.

But remember that Gamble played the same way in his first 2 years, going for the interception more often than he probably should have, getting burned alot. Now he's as solid as on oak door.

I just hope they find another speedster willing to give up his body to make the stop to replace him on ST.

[joemac]

I think that Marshall along with Gamble give us the opportunity to have one of the better sets of starting CB's in the league. I have always been a really big fan of Marshall.

[Lone Buc Fan]

Marshall has great speed but isn't really anything to fear for throwing the ball in his direction. I'd rather throw at him then Gamble for sure.

Guess the starting role will be the ultimate test to how he can translate on the field, seemed like he had good stamina, acceleration, and a decent jam off the line when I seen him. He's not as good as Aqib Talib but he's a upgrade from Ken Lucas for sure.
