Josh Thomas should see significant playing time at CB as well.

Also nickel is Capt, CJ Moore.

Anyway, ill take it. It is an improvement over last year (not saying much).

Agreed, I didnt even bother putting in Captain. I think Thomas works his way into the starting lineup at some point, just thinking those are your two opening day starters.

Captain and Thomas are both better than Norman until it is proven otherwise.

Heck, they both might be better than Drayton too

Cant forget dockery... he did well late.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I feel like Dock did the best out of all the corner's on the roster (that had significant playing time).

 

I know it doesn't/didn't look flashy but Thomas and Dockery was definitley are best corner combo last year.

I would say that Florence will definitely start on one side, but the other side is much trickier to figure out. I would love for Josh Norman to step up, but we need to see if he his confidence when covering will be improved (no seven yard cushion on every play). Munnerlyn will probably be in the running and may begin the preseason at number 1 because he came on strong at the end of last season. I don't feel that Thomas will be starting, but he will be the first guy rotating in and out. So, I suppose the most likely starting situation will be:

 

CB: Florence/Norman (Thomas rotating and taking Norman's spot if Norman continues to struggle.)

Nickle: Munnerlyn

FS: Godfrey

SS: Mitchell

Can't be said enough.  Norman gets a lot of love because we drafted him and because of his attitude and for talking poo to Bob Griffin, but Thomas, Dockery, and Captain were all much better at actually playing the position than he was last season.

 

If he's gotten a lot better since then, awesome.  Until he proves it we should have some combo of Florence/Thomas/Dockery at CB 1 and 2.

First of all, Capt can't play outside. He just can't. Keep him as the nickle playing close to the LOS where he can be effective.

Thomas should start on one side until Norman beats him out.

[MadHatter]

Battle in camp between Thomas and Norman will be interesting to watch.  We will see which of these two guys want it more.

[Leeroy Jenkins PhD]

I don't see Florence starting.  Every time I have heard his name mentioned by Rivera and Gettleman they are constantly bringing up his experience playing Nickel CB.

[Rubi]

Josh Thomas = best corner on the roster imo

[SIGCHI222]

Rumor has it that Norman took his benching very seriously last year and is back with his priorities in order.  We shall see how this translates. 

Personally, I liked what I saw out of Thomas late in the year but, I would never pull against Norman.

May the best men win.

I'd rather have Captain and Thomas on the field week 1....than Norman and Drayton.

 

and that isn't a glowing endorsment of Capt and Thomas.
