TRADED Colts trade five-time Pro Bowl CB Stephon Gilmore to the Cowboys for a 5th round pick

[CT Dal Fan]

Nice short term solution, doesn't preclude Dallas from drafting a CB at some point.

For only a 5th I love this trade.

He was a top ten corner last season in the nfl. On a horrible team.

The question, and why he was traded for so little, is how much does he have left. He's 32 and the wall can hit hard and fast. Of course, Newman played until he was almost 40, so we can hope that he's got some time left in him. I guess this means we part ways with Brown, although I wouldn't mind keeping him for cheap as depth.

It's a good move for the price we paid.

Only a year prior "Gilmore was traded to the Carolina Panthers on October 6, 2021, in exchange for a sixth-round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft.[73] He appeared in eight games for Carolina, starting three, totaling 16 tackles and two interceptions."

 

[Landryhat73]

9.2mil salary this year

Lower - little under $8

 

[SlammedZero]

I love this. Have to give Cowboys FO some credit on this one.

 

[JohnsKey19]

Does Jordan Lewis have any trade value? A 6th?

 

[Bowdown27]

Wow we did something !!! This is great news.

 

[jazzcat22]

Couldve had Ramsey for a third

And a huge new contract that he wanted.

 

[Carson]

Gilmore has remained extremely good when he plays, and he started 16 games last season en route to a 81.1 PFF coverage grade

 

[Ranching]

Who's he gonna pick off now that he's on the same team as Dak?

Surprised it took this long for someone to turn this into a Dak hate thread....smh.....

 

[Sydla]

These people on here are ridiculous. How can you cry about a top 10 corner for a 5th???

I'll be honest, some people really just love draft picks.

It's kind of weird that people are so about hording late round picks and not giving them up. The odds are whomever we take at that pick is gonna bomb out anyway.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Can I get a He11 Yeah!

 

[big dog cowboy]

Pretty old but still has a season or two left in him.

He is only 32!!!!!!

 

[Aven8]

Sounds like we are trying to build a defense that is tough to score on per Mike. Now we need LB’s and Hankins back

 

[reddyuta]

Are fans happy now?

I am ok with this, for a 5th and you know what he can do.
so don’t need to spend high draft capital at CB. Can focus on DT, WR, OL, LB, possible RB in the 1st 4 rounds.

i think you are right but if one of the top 4 CBs drop to 26 then they have to consider it.

 

[Cowboys93]

People really talking about salary cap implications man let the billionaires deal with that I’m just happy we did something lol

 

[Denim Chicken]

This was a great move. Unexpected TBH.

You can pay 5 Anthony Browns for what he cost.

5 Anthony Browns, based off his 2022 cap number would cost $32.5 million

1 Stephon Gilmore is gonna cost us $7.9 million in 2023

 

[garyv]

5Th rounder and costs 7.9m for his services. If he has gas, it's a good deal.

and its a one year deal left on contract
