But this just popped up on my phone & I’m curious on what the fans think about Gilmore coming back here??? Me personally, I wouldn’t really like it being how he left us…I feel like he don’t deserve to be part of our special team hahahaha like don’t come back now after we became great. (I was trying to post my screenshot but the website won’t let me) Don't like him. Don't want him. Not a process guy. He is a ME first, last, and always guy. Not good for our locker room. Fill the cornerback need through the draft. No thank you. No way. Hard pass. Edited April 4, 2022 by longtimebillsfan 2 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Thought more about it. If the Bills were really in it I don’t think we would’ve heard anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, H2o said: I'd take Gilmore back if he wanted to come here on a team friendly deal in hopes of getting another ring. His play hasn't fallen off of a cliff like Norman's had and right now he's better than Levi Wallace was. Having both him and Tre, when Tre is healthy, on the boundaries would be awesome. He could also fill that #1 role in case Tre's recovery drags a few weeks into the season if need be. If this were to happen we would truly be going into the draft with no glaring holes whatsoever. 😄 does anyone here ever post that they want to sign someone to a non team friendly deal? after kicking the tires, of course Edited April 4, 2022 by nucci 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are really underestimating the leadership we have in our locker room. From the coaching staff to the players. He excelled at NE. If that's not a process environment, I don't know what is.

He's proven he's all about $ and talked trash about Buffalo on his way out. Yes, he played when we were a clownshow, but the shots were unwarranted. I'd 100% rather give up a mid-round pick to the Giants for Bradberry. I would LOVE to have Bradberry here!!! 😎👍🏾 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great if we could sign CB 2 pre draft, fill all our holes. And then go BPA all day! It’s so interesting…because this thread is almost 50/50 …there’s some like yourself that would love the signing of it happen for the right price. Other’s like myself, feel even at the right price he’s not worth bringing back. I just feel like if he came back, he’s a little salty the way he left & nobody wouldn’t really embrace him again. He will kill the mindset we have in that locker room… now if we can somehow trade for Bradberry from the Giants. I would love that even more! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) I dont want to watch an opposing WR running into the endzone with Gilmore chasing him, to turn around with his arms up ever again. At least not in a Bills uniform......... Edited April 4, 2022 by 13 Second Prevent Defense 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 9 hours ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: I dont get fans obsession with players being "traitors", its a business and they are here to make money and win and thats what Gilmore did. If he can help us im all for it. When I read a post where someone calls a former Bill "disloyal" or a "traitor" because they took a better offer from another team, I immediately label that poster as a moron and dismiss most all of their opinions. It is one of the most idiotic things a fan could say. It's even dumber when it only applies if they go to the Pats*, Fins or some other team the poster has an issue with. If the former player really trashes the city of Buffalo or the fans after he leaves, then I can understand not liking the player. I despise Fred Smerlas. But not because he is a "traitor". Because he badmouths/badmouthed the Bills fans, and the city of Buffalo, when outside WNY, then sucks up to them when on WNY media. Still, if he were much younger and could still play and help the Bills, I'd take him back at the right price. Why not? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Edmunds for 2022 mid 2nd and 5th Trade Epenesa + our 5th for Bradberry with retention Edmunds clears up cap space for Bradberry No pressing need for CB now Draft 1st Round…WR Jameson Williams, Christian Watson or Chris Olave MID 2nd received in trade…LB Troy Andersen 2nd Round pick 57 (maybe use 6th to trade up few spots)…RB Kenneth Walker 3rd Round pick 89…best OLine available 4th Round pick 129…Punter Matt Araiza Mid 5th received in trade…Safety, LB or developmental CB 6th Round if not traded..see above 6th Round again…see 5th round 7th Round….same 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds more like personal feelings than anything else. You could be right. Not personal since I do not know Gilmore on a personal or any other level. Beane and McDermott have done a great job of building a group of players that puts team above self. In my very humble opinion, Gilmore does not appear to be that type of player. Also, his compensation would not fit under our cap. We need to get an upgrade from Wallace at a much lower compensation such as in the draft or a player on a "prove it" one year contract. If we want to keep Diggs for his next contract, we need to increase the number of contributing players on our roster with 4 or 5 year rookie contracts. That is just our current reality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(But I want a top wr in the first, and if we don't go there, it will likely be cb, so the point is moot.) 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 You never know what the draft will give you. Gilmore is the best free agent CB available and we need a CB. If Beane can create the cap space, its a no brainer. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I think there are better players out there & possibly in the draft that would be less expensive . Gilmore is a decent CB but you can depend on him getting beat & looking at someone else when he does . Last year was it when the Bills played the Panthers he got smoked by one of our WR's & in classic Gilmore form looked back at another player as to say it wasn't my fault where were you . I hope they go a different direction even though we do need a CB if he would play for vet minimum might be the only way i would say yes but i don't see that happening . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never buy the same jersey twice. . If they ever bring back Terrence McGee, I am set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
