Quote:Yeah, Marshall's not an above average athlete at CB.

He is for a 6-2 and a half, 210 pound CB


Always look at athleticism in terms of body type. They didn't draft him to play off man. They want him to rough up receivers at the line and jump with them for the ball and swat it with his long arms. Just like Davon House. Heck I am not comparing talent at all but Richard Sherman, Bradley's protege, was a slow tight hipped 6'3" corner who went in the fifth round because teams didn't think he had enough recovery speed. Doesn't matter if you know how to get away with contact, recognize and predict routes (Marshall was a QB so he understands timing and development of routes), be the bigger bully, and attack receivers' mentality until you fluster them.
