Richard Marshall is gone!

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Three things about Richard Marshall that stick out to me...

1. He wasn't as bad as Panther fans think he was.

2. He wasn't as good as he and his agent thought he was.

3. The Coaches and staff new exactly how valuable Marshall was to the team, but they also new he was not a game changing corner back like Aso, Revis, DRC, Samuel, Tramon Williams etc... Therefore, he was not worth the money that he thought he was, resulting in him finding a new home.

But by no means was he a bad player, and he should not be undervalued...

1. He was tied for 5th among CB's with 3 interceptions...

2. He was tied for 7th among CB's with 88 tackles.

Richard Marshall's 2010 Stat Line

88 tackle's (74 solo, 14 assists)

1 sack

1 forced fumble

1 fumble recovery

3 interception (91 interception yards, avg of 30 yards, long of 60 yards)

7 passes defended

2 stuffs (5 stuff yards)

The point is, while I am happy that the Panthers did not overpay him for his services, I am somewhat upset that he is gone because at the moment our cornerback starters are Gamble and Munnerlyn with McClain and Stanford as the two back up's (Hogan is on the PUP list). We definitley need some help.
