Gilmore, who isn’t on the list, added the comment, “Oh ok.” Quite clearly not OK with his contract, Gilmore did not attend the Patriots’ mandatory minicamp. He and the Patriots have reportedly not made any significant progress in negotiating a new deal. Edited June 29, 2021 by TBBills 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) Hopefully Gilmore gets traded out of the division. Maybe the fins trade Xavien Howard as well. The Jets don't even have a cb good enough to consider holding out. Looks like Diggs might hit 2,000 yards this season.

Don Otreply Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Gilmore can want in one hand and 💩 in the other and see which one gets full quicker…, he is as good as gone from NE, this couldn’t happen to a more deserving team, may the distractions grow ever larger for those turds. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was a better CB during the 2019 season (last year he was not healthy)? As much as I don’t like that he plays for the Cheats, he is worthy of #1 consideration. 23 minutes ago, Doc said: He's a good CB who looks better in the Cheaters' system, like many CBs have done.

NoSaint Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 He’s a very good corner and I’d bet good money neither side expected him to happily play this final year without an extension or trade. this would be a good spot to acquire a pick and send him to a contender. Makes sense for both sides. 16 minutes ago, Niagara Dude said: Patriots will soon release him or trade him for a 5th rounder, the dude is to old to demand big bucks.

Tre is top 5 no doubt and he could end up being better than Gilmore, but you have zero stats on your side to say he is as good or better. If we had both on our team I think we match up a lot better with the Chiefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had both on our team I think we match up a lot better with the Chiefs. Being better goes further than just play on the field. Gilmore is a better man corner, but Tre has a lot more grit and willingness to put his nose into a play. Add that to what Tre means to the team as a whole because of his attitude and I'd take Tre everyday of the week. Gilmore is soft, entitled, and always acted like he was better than Buffalo. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
