BuffaloBillyG Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) Don't really need a starter at CB. Much more likely to see Dane Jackson back. Edited March 7 by BuffaloBillyG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikePJ76 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 No, he does not fit in at all. He seems to be the opposite of what the team will be looking for when signing some mid level free agents. It seems he really wants to stay in Dallas also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corta765 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Don't really have space at CB and rather be younger: Douglas Benford T Johnson NCB Elam 4th CB So he would be 4th at best and your not touching Douglas/Benford/Johnson as all three graded out extremely high in coverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheshireCT Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Seems to be this year is all about getting younger. I'm not sure we see many aging veterans pulled in, even if they're former probowlers and cheap. Better to stick a young guy in there and let him take his lumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBFL Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Gilmore was actually pretty solid in Dallas last season, if you’re paying him the absolute bet minimum then you can’t be opposed to it. Only question becomes why even bother? He’s best as a man to man corner and the one we have already rides the bench and dog house for this team… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 We have 2 quality starters outside, an all pro nickel back and a quality backup outside. Why would we want to use our limited cap space on a CB when we have massive holes at WR, DT, DE and S? Makes ZERO sense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPL Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I might be paraphrasing here, but I think Gilmore's wife said she would rather die than ever return to Buffalo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't get out of here fast enough. He can go steal money from someone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 No thanks Beane needs to tell McDermott to play Elam. I'm sure they will draft a day 3 CB. Only way Gilmore or any other FA CB would make sense is if they want to move Benford to safety Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Just now, Sweats said: Yeah!!!......like another Elam.......ugh. Highly doubt the Bills will be drafting a CB high this year, when they enter the season with two good starters and a former RD1 pick they want to revive as the primary backup. So, more likely, maybe another Benford. With all these picks, they’ll likely draft depth pieces to develop in the Secondary on Day 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could use some help in marketing department for him to sell tickets "to his people" since Bills likely will be on TV less. On 3/7/2024 at 10:55 AM, MPL said: I might be paraphrasing here, but I think Gilmore's wife said she would rather die than ever return to Buffalo. Maybe because he knew his wife would go to Buffalo to keep him out of trouble but not elsewhere and he would have free reign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
