BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Gilmore had one of the lowest per cent completion rates against against wars last year. Better than Revis I believe and from what I have seen Gilmore is much better than the overrated are is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 David, I think it is because Corey is getting older.....and they want to make sure their starting safeties are a strong group.....I actually applaud the bills forward thinking on this. and If an injury happens......Corey is versitile I get the feeling that the bills are NOT sold on Duke WIllaims......who hits like a truck but appears to be having problems with coverage.....they are even starting to talk up Meeks who has been a ghost on this team since he was drafted I think that's fair.

bladiebla Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Gilmore hasnt been the same since that broken wrist imho, hope he turns it around. Then again that coincided with the rule change where cbs werent allowed to be as physical any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2014 Gilmore was pretty darn dominant (shoot the whole secondary was) Gotta hang onto that DB coach Henderson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Football Outsiders had him as 13th: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stat-analysis/2015/best-cornerback-stats-2014 . He's not on the chart for #1s, but if you read down they say that he was the next #1 on their list (12 are actually on the list). That's a good showing, and I bet that if they did it for the second half of the season, he'd be near the top. This does make you wonder why Corey Graham ain't playing CB. I know he's not supposed to be a scheme fit, but my god, all he did was make plays last year. lost his speed but not his ability to read the play and he can hit . and he did get beat once in awhile by outside speed. i think this is a fantastic move along with moving A Williams to center field. and it showed Friday night for the both of them In 2014 Gilmore was pretty darn dominant (shoot the whole secondary was) Gotta hang onto that DB coach Henderson aint that the truth!!

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Bill feels about CBs the way the African American community feels about the Ferguson police force. I kid. Bill doesn't have CBs, he just has absolutely no respect for them. #Cb lives matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a huge Corey Graham fan. He basically won the Bears game for us last year. Without his stellar coverage at the end of regulation,the Bears score a TD.

If Darby isn't cutting it early on, Graham could probably slide over and be replaced by Rambo and/or Co. I don't see the defense being handicapped by this scenario.

I don't see the defense being handicapped by this scenario. nor do i. enough depth to shift a couple around Duke and Meeks need to come on though. they have had enough time, by now Outstanding! Maybe I'll get this on a t-shirt. I am in for one. in black please. with black lettering as a nod to Bill in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Our expectations are so high for Gilmore that unless he is the best and never allowing a play to be made on him then he is a bum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC in St. Louis Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 He will give up an occasional completion. The key to the whole defense will be the chaos created by the front 7. They aren't revealing any of that right now. We good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtDart Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Gilmore is too physical when the ball is in the air. Not great at finding the ball and I don't think other teams fear him. Carolina went right after him with Benjamin and were for the most part successful. I expect by the end of the year he's going to be much better, but as of now he doesn't look elite to me. Not yet, but he is getting there. My concern is his health with that style of play. He needs to learn when to be aggressive, and when not. Don't think he has that down yet.
