Cowboys are now very close after getting Gilmore

[Cowboysheelsreds058]

You lost me at "draft Bijon".

LOL, if he still there you know Uncle Jed.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

NO they arent. All these are lateral moves. They have still not improved the team at all.

Win SB? LOL

I think Gilmore does improve us actually. He may not be what he was at his peak, but he's still a very good CB. Gilmore allows us to have some nice flexibility at CB with him, Diggs, and Bland. Also, he comes with the added benefit of getting rid of Kelvin Joseph. So, I'd call that an upgrade. And an upgrade is an improvement.

Really Aikman was surrounded by less talent? Staubach? Mahomes has the #2 Oline in the NFL and Ried along with the #1 TE in NFL history. #3 DPOY candidate.

You want to try again?

We just made it to within one win from the championship game with a team you called "not even lose" LOL

Keep up the BS buddy.

I didn't say Aikman was surrounded by less talent. I said he needed less talent around him than someone with no talent like Dak Prescott.

The QB needs help. A lot of it.

Hehehe. There's 8 words in that post....and at least 8 different ways u could read that post. Fascinating.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

We need to make a trade for Amari Cooper asap and tell him we're sorry!

Or we can sign Darius Slayton. He's still a FA, and I could see him not costing much. Could be a nice veteran addition at WR.

We had Brown when he was healthy and he was good. I would say Gilmore is a slight upgrade but our weaknesses have still not been addressed.

You're telling me it's so common it last happened 20 years ago?

Well we did have 5 in 2016 too. But one of the was Jaylon Smith, and two others were Maleik Collins and Anthony Brown. So basically round that down to 3

This, opposite side of Diggs, if you were starting Little Wayne we would be in serious trouble, now you have this guy big improvement. Now you still have to shore up DT.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

No mention of upgrading the O-line or D-Line. Until that happens they aren't close. Gilmore is certainly an upgrade of Anthony Brown at least but it's not a long term plan. A TON more work needed.

That's why I think pick one should be Anton Harrison from Oklahoma. I think McBride from UAB in round 4 would be a nice RB addition if we want one.

Aikman needed every piece of talent he had. Without Emmitt he never won a game. Without Irvin he sucked. Without his vaunted Oline he was terrible.

Try again.

Dumbest post of the day. We got further without Cooper than we ever did with Cooper. Can you explain that?

Over 1100 yards and 9 TD's with J. Brisset throwing him the ball.

Was not sure if we owe him an apology to trading him to the Browns or only getting a 6th round pick in return.

Best FA WR this year regarded by many is Jacoby Meyers, about 800 yards and 6 TDs in 2022.

 

[Acceptablename]

Wrong, we Dded a top 10 CB and lost a LG that EVERYBODY including you combined about until a few games into thos season....but carry on

Yep

Yup, he may be older, but it won't be hard for Gilmore to be a nice upgrade over KJ. Plus, with Bland, he doesn't have to play every down. We can rotate him with Bland if we want. This means that teams will have to work the middle, and that's where Donovan Wilson comes in. We need a NT, which I want to be Jerrod Clark from Coastal Carolina. As for WR, I think Darius Slayton would make a good addition. Imagine having him, Gallup, Lamb, and Hilton.

He thinks Aikman needed as much talent as Dak Prescott to win.

Really appreciate this.

Anybody know why this is Gilmore's 3rd team in as many years?

Salary Cap

 

[Xavier187]

Honestly I think we need to draft a guard and a DT back to back. Trade for a WR like Jeudy and a TE like Pitts.

Stay young and firm moving forward. Let these guys grow togather. They want weapons well there are your weapons

Truth hurts I still don’t like it

No doubt about Brown, but it shows how good our CB should be now. We have Diggs, Gilmore, Brown, and Bland. That's a nice 4 deep CB lineup, and Quinn can rotate some into the slot if he wants.

 

[Loso86]

What? That Gilmore is a top 10 CB in the league?

Smdh

You said it.
