#23 Sherrod Martin
 Pos: Defensive Back
NFL Team: CAR
Injury: OK
Experience: 0
College: Troy
Height: 73
Weight: 198
Born: 10/12/1984
SUMMARY
The Panthers defense was a disappointment last season, ranking 18th and allowing over 20 points per game. Carolina struggled a little more against the run than the pass, allowing 120 yards per game. Tackles Maake Kemoeatu and Damione Lewis need to do a better job of stuffing the middle. Linebacker Jon Beason is an emerging star, though, and does a good job in run defense and pass coverage. Julius Pepper isn't great in run support, but remains one of the top pass rushers in the game. The Panthers have a shutdown corner in Chris Gamble, but need Richard Marshall or Sherrod Marshall to step up and grab the other starting job. Mark Jones was a pleasant surprise in the return game of the Panthers last season, averaging more than 10 yards per punt return and 24 yard per kick return. He'll get the first shot at the return duties for the Panthers this season.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Another good platoon unit. The Panthers should be able to get some sacks with Peppers back to his old form last season. But the secondary isn't a huge big-play unit and the special teams are just OK.

Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers rookie DB Sherrod Martin played safety in college but the Panthers like him as a cornerback in the NFL. He is likely to battle CB C.J. Wilson for the team's nickel cornerback role this year. He should also see plenty of action on special teams.
