Captain over Martin?

Recommended Posts

Wasn't there something mentioned earlier in the offseason about Marshall sliding over to the Nickel when in the Nickel package since he plays it so well? That would leave whoever is the "nickel" back playing a more traditional CB position on the outside

i think so, ever since with drafted martin i said marting would still probably play outside

marshall just seems to fit better in the slot because he's smaller

I hate to be "that guy" who says the same crap in these situations, so I'll just give you the highlights:

blah blah blah Tom Brady...blah blah blah Ryan Leaf blah blah

It has to be said. If we went strictly by draft position then we would have alot of mediocre players and a few busts missing out of the HOF.

I love how Smitty gets on his teammates for letting him catch the ball, he really wants to win and I hope he continues to make our D better

Steve Smith sprinted across the middle Wednesday morning, caught a pass in front of Richard Marshall(notes) and spiked the ball in front of him.

Haha imagine lil steve doing that lol

I've actually been thinking about this a lot. We've heard a lot about Captain in camp, but I don't know that I've heard anything about Martin. I said yesterday that I wouldn't be surprised if Captain got the nickelback position over Martin.

Wilson's most likely to get that job. The two young guys will most likely just be learning this year.

Could be.

I like Wilson, but I don't see why everyone's been so enamored with him over the last year or so. I think he could probably start, but I don't think he's going to be the star some expect him to be.

He didn't look that impressive last preseason. If I remember correctly, he was missing tackles left and right.

He was very good in preseason last year, which is why he's getting this shot now. Granted, in preseason we're playing much more man technique, but it mostly translates to what we're doing now.
