Even though our pass rush has sucked I still have worries about our secondary. Greer has had only one season where he made it through healthy and P.Rob continues to be an inconsistent player.
I see that Panthers Chris Gamble is likely to be a cap casualty for the Panthers this year after spending most of the season on IR with a shoulder injury. He had a great 2011 Season playing as their #1 corner and was having a good one at the beginning of this season.
PFF:
He is almost 30 and not really a big name guy, coming off an injury. 6'1, long frame, can play press man, off man, or zone. I think he is a guy who could be had for decent $$'s. We need some more competition in our secondary and at worst, P.Rob gets his head right and beats him out, or Greer gets injured and we have a good solid replacement. He knows this division very well and has good ball skills.
Thoughts?

PFF:
A real bounce back year for Gamble as the cornerback was able to find the form that deserted him a season earlier. He showed his class with a string of good performances that saw him allow just 27 receptions for 338 yards whilst he was in primary coverage all year. Those kinds of numbers should let you know teams shied away from throwing at him, and when they did, they got little joy with quarterbacks picking up a 53.3 QB rating in his coverage.
Best Performance: Week 15 at Houston (+3.5)
Key Stat: Gave up just 0.68 yards per route in coverage. The third lowest of all cornerbacks in the league.
