Marshall Skips Conditioning Program

Moore was a fine nickel back, but as an every down corner, well, he was serviceable. Good, but not outstanding. He is, however, better than a number of teams' starting corners and conceivably get some attention in the near future. Who knows, perhaps he's already fielded a phone call or two.

Matt or Kenneth? :sosp:

(I know who you meant) :cool:

I'm not sure how Meeks feels about Marshall, honestly. It's been said before that Meeks' system does not require premiere corners. Add in that Fox went to the Super Bowl with two guys that were better run stoppers than cover guys.

In the end, I think Marshall signs the tender and is back here starting this season. After that, who knows?

only problem .. correct me if im wrong .. but there arn't really any corners that jump out at me in the draft i believe joe haden is a little overated , someone would have to take marshalls place assuming munnerlyn isn't promoted ?

Three CB's in the 2nd round that could make a significant impact are Kareem Jackson, Devin McCourty, and Parrish Cox.

Any of those guys would do a great job replacing Marshall. Devin McCourty is basically a Marshall clone.. and the other two guys are great man-to-man corners like Gamble..

Because we slapped a first and third round tender on him. We did that with the knowledge that we were pricing him out of teams bidding range. It was also a show of confidence. Spend a little extra to have Moore go into camp feeling wanted and appreciated. If it doesn't work out, it's still just a one year deal, but his confidence level is a lot higher. Worth the extra cash, and not like we're hurting for money right now.

I don't think he's all pro, but you can't argue with his stats and W-L record. If we'd slapped him with just the 1st round tender, he'd have gotten sniffed. If we slapped a 2nd rounder he'd be gone right now.
