Gilmore trade rumor

The draft fan in me hates the idea. The football fan think it's probably a smart trade
 
I too heard that out of the Press conference yesterday. I think its way Jerry ment with having to manage the cap in terms of Draft choices in trade scenarios.
 
Lets play this out:
  • The difference between pick 10 and pick 15 is 250 points (equivalent of pick 68)
  • Gilmore if he walked after the season would net about pick 100 (100 points)
  • Gilmore is on 7m a season and is probably worth 18m if healthy
That's a steal, we'd be paying 150 points for 11m of value and that's before considering we'd benefit hugely from his leadership, and Superbowl experience. If we could restructure his contract on a 3-year deal we'd be a really good position. Pick 15 keeps us in a range to take maybe the 3rd best defender in the draft and if we also add Gilmore that's two big additions to the defense with still a 2nd, and 2 x 3rd that have a reasonable chance to contribute.

Gilmore is at the back end of his career
He will not restructure like that, he will want to get paid big time
 
They would probably just call the Giants or Philly knowing full well we would pass on the QB anyway.

yes of course but the lower it gets the more chance QB desperate teams like Chicago and WFT get involved and now the price goes up even at 11 or 12 because there is a bidding war. Also don’t count out the idea that NYG or Philly might just decide to take someone Luke Fields because the QB class for next year is not great
 
Saw a rumor where the Pats were floating Stephon Gilmore as bait to get into the top ten. Woodja take 15 and Gilmore and take the best remaining defensive player such as JOK or Barmore to name a couple? That would really elevate the defense, for sure
Gilmore is hurt and looking for a huge payday, hard pass. The reason why the team doesn't use fa is to lock good talent at a cheap cost.
 
Gilmore is the type of player that goes to a team that is just one player away from competing for a championship. Of course Jerry always thinks we are that type of team.

He is hurt?

I was beginning to warm to the idea but I didn't know that part.

I'm not sure about looking for a big payday. He already got that.

Think he has a partially torn quad. He is looking for his last contract. Major pass for me and definitely them as they want to control a corner at a much cheaper rate.

I look at draft capital as being the same as cap dollars.

Pick 10 isn't cheap.

Pass for Dallas but if the Patriots pay the quarterbacks tax of a 2022 first round pick, I could see Carolina doing it.
 
If the Patriots move up, I want 46 and more.
Well, sure...but I doubt they are offering that.

Question there is would someone trade pick 46 for Gilmore.

I can't see it, so looking at it from that angle, I suppose it's not great value.

I liked it because I'm not wild about corner at 10.

Dont worry Cowboys fans,,,,,looks like the real trade is between the Patriots and the Panthers.....Not the Cowboys. Patriots need to get ahead of Denver if they want a QB.

Who knows, there is an outside chance our corners are off the board, doubt it, but there is a slim chance. Slater is my preferred choice, but warming up to one of the corners.

I'm still wanting to get out of there and hoping things set up that way.

I'd normally be against dealing down in a draft I consider weak overall, but the matches at 10 just aren't convenient.

I want to go down from 10, but up from 44 and 75.

Too many guys 20-50 that can help. I want four.

I think the opposite this year, about 12-15 1st rd players then a huge drop off. Grab one.
