thebandit27 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Makes sense @josinaanderson My understanding is that CB Stephon Gilmore is using Janoris Jenkins' deal as a baseline to work from.. That's actually quite reasonable...I'm probably going to be annoyed if he signs elsewhere for the same $12.5M AAV that Jenkins got. He gave up plays in that game, yes, but he was literally in position almost the entire night. They were just perfect throws to tall WRs who could win jump balls. There is really no defending against that. I suggest rewatching the game or at least clips from it if you're going to base you judgement on this one game (rather than the game against, say, AZ, which has a flat out better passing game than the Jets). Regardless of how poorly he may have looked in that game, I still contend that using a single game to make your evaluation is folly at best and disingenuous at worst. If we want to cherry pick, all we need to do is remove that game and watch what happens to Gilmore's numbers for the season: 60 targets, 33 receptions, 498 yards, 2 TDs, 5 INTs, 57.1 passer rating against, 40 solo tackles Which says more about him as a CB? His one bad game, or the rest of the time when he stacks up against the best corners in the league? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Not possible--scores of people told me how this guy sucks, his attitude is terrible, and that the rest of the NFL knows it. Belichick would never sign a guy that's a terrible corner, can't/won't tackle, and has a bad attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
