Agree with your totally on Marshall. I think we need to be realistic with our rookies, it is much more likely that 2nd and 3rd year players break out so the Pruitts, Wallaces and so on of this world really need to step up. If they don't they will get cut because Philbin has no special attachment to them.
There are very VERY few "sacred cows" on a 6-10 team. PRUITT, MOORE, WALLACE and GATES better "stand and deliver", or else! But w/MARSHALL gone, at least they'll have a chance to show what they can really do. Ditto, everyone else, for that matter.
