Richard Marshall

[OhioBolt]

If not Richard Marshall we will need another CB, maybe the last cuts we get someone. Looking at the current roster for CB's on NFL.com it doesn't look good at all. I am not sure on Johnny Patrick, he was getting toasted in New Orleans, and I really haven't seen much from him in the pre-season.

RCB Shareece Wright, Johnny Patrick, Marcus Cromartie(R), Josh Johnson(R), Cornelius Brown


LCB Derek Cox, Steve Williams(R)-IR, Greg Gatson, William Middleton, Greg Brown(R)

Glad to see they were able to secure him. I expect to see between 3-5 more new players brought in between now and week 2.

hopefully one of them being one of those seahawks running backs. i would seriously trade a 4th round pick for turbin.

Chargers should have drafted Joekel instead of signing Marshall.

Just getting us ready for the inevitable onslaught.

This is a pretty good little signing here. I like it.

Why not Munoz?

I guess Milus must be a good enough DB coach. Marshall would not have signed if he sucked as bad as Broncos say.

I think its funny how bronco fans are blaming their DB coach for that choke job.

Williams is out, and I expect Gilchrist to play CB- not S. Taylor is playing this Saturday and may not be that far away and they can use Stuckey at SS until Taylor takes over. Couple promising young S can back up. Maybe not the best Secondary in the NFL but not the worst either.

With the depth we have, I wouldn't be surprised if we weren't signing some guys for the first 6 weeks or so. Remember, so solid but unproven guys get cut the first few weeks when teams have to shuffle their rosters to deal with injuries. And a few useful vets too. It may disrupt the team a bit, but I can see us shuffling guys around, trying to get the best guy. In truth, we have done that every year for as long as I can remember. It's just some times, we had a deep enough roster that we didn't need to do that.

Just as a reminder about the kinds of players you can get that way, John Parella got signed the year we went to the SB a few weeks into the year, after being cut in preseason by Buffalo. A couple of years later, we signed Norman Hand, who was so fat he could only play about 3 plays in a row. Both of them turned out to be excellent signings, and they only cost us salary to get them as 3rd DT types.
