Ya know...

There are other vet db,s we can sign on the cheapwhy the flip should they the OP needs to know why waste resources on aging CB when you have roster full of younger ones, yes he mentioned it but would have killed his post afar he reread what he wrote..
add to that isnt Rsherman still out there? will be some more vets cut by game 1 roster cut downs, go get one of them if by then you feel the young guys are not ready and /or AB Lewis arent getting it done..
with dak back and AC, LAMB, AND GALLUP running first team against or starting DBs , i believe the FO will know in august if they need hep..i mean going against that WR Core every day in TC, coaches will for sure see whos got it and who doesnt....
It’s a waste of a draft pickYou willing to extend a 30+ cornerback top cornerback money. He is not playing for the contract he has with the Patriots. I would love to have him for next season with Diggs but beyond next year, no way.
Right to the point lol
I know we have a glutton at CB at the moment, but not a solid option (that we currently know of) opposite Diggs. Gilmore would instantly solidify our starting CB’s … and NE wants to shop him. He should have at least 2 good years left in him. And he is a MUCH better option than Richard Sherman. I was pushing for this before the draft and so was Mike Fisher — and he still is.
On another note, there is something about Kelvin Joseph that I just don’t trust yet. Can’t put my finger on it, but I wouldn’t put too much hope in him at the moment. He has the skill set, but only time will tell if he has the mental focus needed for us to trust him completely.
With Gilmore, here’s how I would see our secondary shaping up:
I know I only have 3 safeties listed, but don’t forget - Keanu Neal could play safety in a pinch.
- S. Gilmore (CB)
- T. Diggs (CB)
- A. Brown (CB)
- J. Lewis (CB)
- CJ Goodwin (Special teams)
- N. Wright (CB)
- K. Joseph (CB)
- I. Mukuamu (S)
- D. Wilson (S)
- D. Kazee (S)
