JohnBonhamRocks Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 If he goes to KC it would be funny in that who would have imagined Gilmore covering Gordon in KC practice just a few days/weeks ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is super talented but has been a me-first player throughout his career. He will dog it in games if his contract is ending and will sulk and pout if he isn't getting the money he wants. Pass. I think the sulking was part of being in the Rex awful teams. And if that happens here, he's gone. We basically have 2 #1 CBs if we get him here, and this will give us arguably the top secondary in the NFL and allow us to go toe to toe with any offense.

I understand your point, I just don't think this is a team for divas. If we sign him, I'm not going to complain. I'm just not going to lobby for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 yes, Gilmore was a top 10 corner while he was here, when he felt like actually trying. i dont care about the excuses, when youre a professional, being paid to do your job the best u can, if u start dogging it, peeps have a right to turn on u. some of us still remember his "excitement" of being drafted by Buffalo.... he played a few above average years, then bailed. thats fine. but dont act like it didnt happen.

Could be wrong here you are 100% correct. If you turn your head and look at the ball, it's almost never PI because the defender has the same right to go after the ball as the WR, so contact is incidental in that instance. If the head is not turned and there is contact, the defender is not going for the ball and it gets called. 1 minute ago, bigduke6 said: yes, Gilmore was a top 10 corner while he was here, when he felt like actually trying. i dont care about the excuses, when youre a professional, being paid to do your job the best u can, if u start dogging it, peeps have a right to turn on u. some of us still remember his "excitement" of being drafted by Buffalo.... he played a few above average years, then bailed. thats fine. but dont act like it didnt happen. he did sulk, but people grow, and he was playing for Rex (ugh) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I should point out we only have 3mil in cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 He'll probably go to the Bucs or Chiefs. The Bucs may have gotten Sherman, but he wasn't great in his first game (8 targets, 8 catches allowed) and they'd rather not have to deal with his legal issues.

I would like to think BUF has a higher likelihood, but have learned not to bet against McBeane’s Levi Love bold literally made me LOL! So true, and I like Levi, but Gilmore is an upgrade. Agreed that money talks. I think Gilmore's unhappiness in Buffalo was being on a dysfunctional losing team (Rex team). I think he would look at JAX and say "no thanks." If he's going after top dollar, I think CAR has the most space on a functional team that needs a CB. If going for a ring this year, I think BUF (really, we may be SB fav's with him); KC, and TB are the favs. ?? 2 minutes ago, ndirish1978 said: I should point out we only have 3mil in cap space. that's a great point. What do KC and TB have? Just curious, I have no idea. I think the "he goes to TB/KC" by some is Rex year FA PTSD (which I also suffer from!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At NE he played as if he cared. Do you also want to give Whitner another try? He too was quite useful and certainly not a waste of a draft pick and cap space, no? 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Greg Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 There's no way he's coming back without a big new contract. I don't think the Bills have the cap space for this. Not worth it. There will be other needs to fill in the offseason that need to be accounted for. I doubt a high priced veteran CB coming off injury fits the McBeane plan.

Gilmore went from an average player here, to All-Pro in New England. We'll see how he fares if they decide to start calling him for holding again now that he's out of NE. Did you just say an average player here God I’m glad you’re not Our gm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don’t think BUF has a good shot without true need at CB or a ton of $ to show at him. We may be #6 on my list though just because we are on the contender short list.

Fan in Chicago Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Let us set aside emotions. If he can play (mentally and physically), we should get him for our Superbowl run. $s may still be an issue for us though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Allen is going to light up that secondary. Everyone was raving about them this past Sunday. But Brady was as off as I've ever seen him - guys were wide open and he was just overthrowing all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 22 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: The revisionist history on Gilmore is hilarious…. Dude was really good here. Fans hated him because he signed with the Patriots and talked ***** to bills fans after the fact. Fans hated him from the first moment he was drafted when he didnt jump up and dance around enough for some peoples' liking. 🙄 He absolutely was great here, and if we could afford him, I'd welcome him back as our #2 CB. But that wont happen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Bill from NYC said: Alot more than Gilmore. Plus, they even TRIED to win and went all out. They didn't dog it half the time like Gilmore. You just equate cornerbacks with cop killers. Gilmore was great here. This idea that he hated it in Buffalo was nonsense from the start. He did want to leave at the end because we weren’t good and weren’t going to pay him the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
