WE NEED A CORNER.

by RonnieHawkins97 on Jul 30, 2011 10:20 PM EDT

We have re signed the people we needed to resign, made it official with Cam, and picked up Greg Olsen. This offseason started off fantastic. But now we have lost perhaps our best cornerback, Richard Marshall to our first regular season opponent, the Cards. Now we need to make a move for a corner. We aren't showing interest in anyone. Something needs to be done. Munnerlyn played strong at the end of the year last year and Hogan looks promising, but Chris Gamble is just flat out overrated. We won't be able to keep our reputation of a great pass defense without Marshall in there. We have great young safeties with Godfrey and Martin to back up the young corners, but corner is definitely a position we need to improve at. Carlos Rogers and Antonio Cromartie could be a couple of studs we could go after. Let's see what Richardson and Hurney will do.

Richard M

was the worst starting corner on the team, at best he’s nickle corner. Cromartie is overrated as well, not that much better than Gamble besides 07 and this yr( was solid). I don’t mind Rogers as a stop gap though.

Richard Marshall perhaps the best we had

Richard is that you? He is probably the best cb Arizona has now, lol. I agree we do need to get a quality cb to avoid leaving a gap for the offense to exploit. I do really believe that our guys will light him up like a Christmas tree first game. Our starting receivers know all his weak spots, and to be honest he wouldn’t be that hard to burn going by last year. I will say Gamble needs to work on run support and his open field tackling instead of just diving at a guys ankles, break down square up and stick your shoulder tween the sternum and wrap up.

Who the hell drafts Peterson and shits him?

I know not enough time to get up to speed fully, but the man is a freak athlete, god knows he couldn’t be worse than Marshall, but I do hope they line up Marshall on Smitty if true, lmao.

Apparently the Cards...

Idk if we had PP7 I would start him over Gamble

would not put marshall ahead of munnerlyn

statistically and in just about every level, marshall’s a below average corner with above average tackling at his position (maybe giving him too much credit). most of the tackles he piled up were the ones made after he was beat to the spot.

i would like cromartie on our team who could add a lot of athleticism to the secondary.

I hope some how they dont get what they want

and maybe we’ll get him for cheap…. also dont see that happening unfortuantley

We have already let it be known that we are interested in Samuel

it is just a poker game now. I think they (PHI) are weighing keeping him on the roster vs clearing a spot for another need (do they have any now?). Or, waiting for us to offer up something big.

Would you do this deal?

Asante Samuel and Cleveland’s 2012 5th rounder (acquired in the Brodrick Bunkley trade) for Philly hometown boy Dan Connor and a 2013 2nd rounder. The Panthers should be much improved by the end of the 2012 season, so that wouldn’t be like a low 1st, and the Eagles have Arizona’s 2012 2nd from the Kolb deal. Plus, you can sign Tatupu for a veteran LB replacement. Is that deal somewhere in the ballpark?

Who said Gamble was over rated

I didn’t I said he needed to work on run support and open field tackling.
