Richard Marshall = Worst Starting CB in 2010 season?

Sorry didn't see this posted. Getting rid of this guy will seriously help out D.. yikes.

The worst

Richard Marshall(notes), Carolina Panthers: 71.3%, 72 burns on 101 targets, 765 yards, 5 TD, 7 passes defensed

Marshall's been doing the contract dance with the Panthers for a few years now, but his numbers just don't justify the inflated opinion. Carolina was horrid last year, but its front seven was surprisingly good, leaving most of the blame for these stats on the man himself.

I agree Richard Marshall was pretty average most of last season, but towards the end of the season when Gamble was out, Marshall became a little more solid. Can the Panthers afford to hold on to a corner that takes time to warm up? I doubt it but under the new coaching with Ron Meeks focused on the db's then I can't say if Marhshall would be a bust.

Anyway's, Im sure Mr Meeks will be vocal on who he wants in the secondary.

I was mildly surprised to see that Gamble wasn't right behind him.

IMO Gamble is much better than most fans give him credit for. That said, having someone performing as poorly as Marshall last year on the other side probably kept him out of the spotlight :)

Marshall is not close to the worst starting cb in the league. I hate these kind of stats, too many variables are involved. He did play bad, so did most of everyone else too.

Marshall can not justify the contract he wants with these statistics. That much is certain.
