  1. The guy is a gimmick QB, Alex Smith would look real good right about now. Whaley is a joke of a GM .....
  2. Would not draft Kelly, most people are going on his last name and forget he is not much bigger TT in height
  3. Right and these type of medicore performances continue then perhaps no team will be interested. I just need to see more big plays and this includes knocking down passes and tackles for losses. Yes a few interceptions are required if you expect big money.
  4. So why pay a sloppy & sometimes lazy corner elite level money? Do you hear fans or media call Patrick Peterson lazy? If he were asking for 7-8 millon then ok and pay him but 12-14 mill is not happening for what he produces on the field. We are too thin at other positions to waste that much dough on a corner that takes plays off. A agree, but Fitzs was getting the ball out quick. Corners or least the great ones will make a play of two in those situations.
  5. Are you talking about the bubble screen where more effort could have resulted in tackle behind the line or no gain?
  6. Some team will pay him more then he is worth, i just hope it is not the Bills. We would be better served using that money to sign free agents to upgrade WR & DE/LB or even a play making safety.
  7. Right, like knocking down balls on 3rd down to get your team off the field or making a tackle on 3 & 2 on a bubble screen.
  8. I agree, unless you are signing some sack master who can change games with turnovers and sacks or in Gilmore's case interceptions
  9. What big plays has he made over his career that have changed games? the is a good corner but not elite which he and his agent think he should paid like. Byrd was more of big play maker and we let him go, Gilmore looks robotic at times. Teams that pay players that kind of money require big plays, he had many opportunities to make plays on Thursday night and failed.
  10. Can anyone really say this guy is worth the kind of money he and his agent thinks he should receive? Top corners make big plays and that does mean making tackles 30-40 yards down the field after you give-up a huge pass play. Gilmore does not seem to be an elite lock down corner that other teams are afraid of attacking. The first drive against the Jets on Thursday night was a game changer (8 min drive) and he could have got us off the field on their first 3rd down opportunity. Quincy Enunwa is the Jets #3 WR and he burned him. Great corners make a play on that ball or ones that want to paid 12-15 millon a season. I would prefer to use that kind of money on free agent pass rushing LB or DE.
  11. I still remember Fitz outrunning our Lorenzo Alexander to get a seven yard gain, this roster is garbage and the Jets showed that. I cannot wait for Whaley to be fired, drafting EJ and trading picks for Sammy have killed this franchise. Really... our WR position after Sammy who he gave a boat load to get is garabge. Robert Woods as # 2 and our LB'S are a bunch of street bums. Very few play makers on defense this season and it showed Thursday.
  12. Gilmore is an average corner, who does not make plays
  13. I would not touch Gilmore, he is not an elite or even great corner.
  14. That was just a stupid comment, I would take a second round pick for EJ and be very happy with it.
  15. We will stink and this will be the biggest problem this season, i am for trading Gilmore to get another pass rusher. Gilmore is never going to be an elite play making corner and we will end -up over paying. Our position with the most depth is corner and he would get you the most in return.
  16. Really! this defense is going to be one of worst in the league
  17. Not sure this guy is enough of a game changer to spend this kind of dough. I would attempt a sign & trade and see if we can get a # 1 pick in return, you need more picks from a guy if you are paying him that much money.
  18. Hard to ignore the the leader of our division has made moves to get better and they were already good, Miami has also made some solid moves. How can you be talking about last year when we were not even a playoff team? You don't get better by losing players and the two teams you mentioned also have franchise QB's we do not. Much easier to lose players and still be good when you have elite QB play, if the plan is to ground & pound then the defense is just not good enough to win. IMO...
  19. This has been one of the worst offseasons in years, still not getting how you get better with holes at both LB & DE. This falls on Whaley and how we are cap hell.
  20. Yes this has been a poor offseason, how is anyone getting excited when we lost more players then we signed off a 8-8 team. Some of these signings are of average players while teams around us are getting better with both trades & signings. Not sure how you expect to be a better team with huge holes at DE & LB?
