After Gamble and Marshall I really don't see anyone caplable of being an every down CB in case there is some injury. I know they are a little older and have had some injury issues but would anyone like to see us try to bring in Mike Mckenzie or Chris McAlister if we could get them for a veteran minimum? Thoughts...

I have looked at that FA DB list about 30 times and still feel you could throw a dart at it and do just as good a job. Most are aging or coming injuries and would likely only serve at the nickle. I would like to have a good feeling about a couple of them and I would like for us to have cap space to possibly go after one but with the cash we have to spend and the commonness that the availables all share we can probably do just as well to wait for an injury need and pluck one between weeks. I know how vital training camp is but the older ones that I am leaning toward right now might serve better to not be put in camp altogether due to their age and/or physical condition injury-wise.

Sherrod Martin is capable of coming in and playing if an injury happens IMO. He may even push for Marshalls spot in camp, who knows and I think the panthers do still like C.J. Wilson. Plus we don't have the cap room to go out and sign somebody. Remember we still have 4 rookies to sign.

I personally don't think Marshall is in any danger of losing his spot to Martin. Wilson maybe at Nickel, but not Marshall at #2. If I'm wrong it's all the better for us though, because that means we got more depth at CB than I was expecting.

I am okay with our backups.

1. Chris Gamble- Everyone is ok with him starting.

2. Richard Marshall- Everyone should be ok with him starting.

3. Dante Wesley- I am fine with him coming in.

4. C.J. Wilson- I am fine with him coming in.

5. Sherrod Martin- I am alright with him coming in.

6. Captain Munnerlyn- I am ok with him apperaing in a game for maybe 2 or 3 plays.

7. D.J. Clark- I am not ok with him making the team.

I really don't want another corner back because I hate cutting young guys like Captain Munnerlyn and Sherrod Martin only to find out later that they can play. I also am not in favor of cutting C.J. Wilson. I really like Wilson's drive and believe he can be an asset to the secondary this year. I like Dante Wesley and I am fine with him coming in the game to give one of the starters a break, however if we were going to cut someone I would choose him because he is an eight year vet with not many good years left in the tank. If they did cut Dante Wesley I would be in favor of signing a corner back that has been in the league for four or five years. D.J. Clark won't make the team, so no one is worried about him.

I don't know why that made me laugh so much. Maybe your very straightforward analysis. +1 for you. :rofl:

I don't even consider Marshall an every down CB.

well, that remains to be seen. I have concerns again about the secondary. Fox and Meeks are both front 4 pressure guys.....and right now we don't have a DL that has proven they can do that in order for the secondary to have success.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
