bourbonboy Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Love seeing this kinda stuff on the wire (this one from Rotoworld): Bills GM Doug Whaley says CB Stephon Gilmore has "made a leap" in his second NFL offseason. It's a scary thought for No. 1 receivers in the AFC East. Gilmore flashed true shutdown ability over the final 11 games of his rookie year, allowing a 53.5 completion rate on throws into his coverage and not a single touchdown while often shadowing opposing No. 1s. When receivers play the Bills this season, Gilmore's presence will be something for fantasy owners to take seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 That seems like an un-GM like thing to do at this point in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 It will be interesting to see how heavy sell out blitz we are if we have a true shut down corner in Gilmore When the jets had Revis they would blitz with reckless abandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 It will be interesting to see how heavy sell out blitz we are if we have a true shut down corner in Gilmore When the jets had Revis they would blitz with reckless abandon Having Cromartie on the other side was kind of nice, too. If McKelvin can be that kind of CB, Pettine will have all sorts of scheme flexibility. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 The interview with Whaley was less than stellar. NP for me. But the question was actually about Leodis . I did not care for the Chris Brown's interview with Doug. It was weak. Thats no problem either its just D W getting his feet wet as the Big Guy GM voice of the team . But dont overate the Gilmore reference. Let Stephon prove himself on game day. he will be very very good i think but lets wait please. Also Doug said that L M is the # 2. This should be a fun secondary to pay attention to this coming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
