Martin possess excellent size at 6-1 and also has good ball skills and takes precise angles to the ball. However, some tightness in his hips along with inconsistency as an open-field tackler makes us believe this is a slight reach at this point. Martin is more suited to play safety in the NFL

I'm not liking this pick at the moment. If they drafted him to play corner I would have much rather went with Sean Smith. I would have also went with Gilbert at DT over Martin as well. If they did draft him to play safety the team either isn't a high as we thought on Godfrey or they have absolutely no confidence in the backups.

With all of that said I hated the Marshall pick at first as well and looking back it was a solid 2nd round pick so who knows.

Scout had him rated the 8th best corner and the 61st overall prospect. The only thing I can think is we might be thinking of moving Godfrey to his normal position of CB.

Side note the server too busy is getting annoying, I haven't been able to get on and post consistently since we traded and selected Brown.

He is a cover 2 CB for our Nickel Packages I guess.....

Well I don't know, it doesn't look like BPA here, more like a reach for a need...

They suck when they do that, I hope I am wrong....

The more I look at him, the more I think he was drafted specifically to be the nickel back (i.e. Richard Marshall II).

Having a corner/safety hybrid playing that role can be handy.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      By fanpanther · Posted

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.

      In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
