The Carolina Panthers continued their low-budget approach to free agency, signing cornerback Marcus Hudson to a one-year contract on the heels of the deal for reserve offensive lineman Rob Pettiti.
Hudson is viewed as a solid special teams contributor. As Darin Gantt of the Rock Hill (S.C.) Herald notes, he played for the San Francisco 49ers previously and that is where the Panthers assistant special teams coach Jeff Rodgers comes from.
Hudson appeared in 48 games for San Francisco and when he played on defense it was primarily in the sub packages.

If I'm the Lions and I land Hargrove, I end up drafting Suh, starting Hargrove and using Corey Williams to rotate in and out as needed as their No. 3 tackle. He's always done best when he's not an every-down player.
