    Just imagine

    Slater-Jordan/Elflein-Creed Humphrey-Trey Smith-Moton

    Even one of those moves would hold a drastic difference on our line. The whole Trey Smith falling in the draft was absurd to me and never understood why we didnt take him later in the draft.

    Making a lot of assumptions.

    I don't see Gilmore playing free safety. I think he'd take his services elsewhere before playing safety.

    And that's just the first assumption you made.

    I mean it’s literally not an assumption he played snaps at FS in New England.

    Call me a bit of a pessimist on this but I don’t think a former defensive player of the year (2 years removed) would be willing to make a position change in the final year of a contract he was already unhappy with. 
     

    Absolutely love the idea for the team. Sounds great but…….
    He’d personally be crazy to do it as a player especially when the open market would pay him so much more at corner. 

    Im more so implying that he could operate at FS for a decent amount of snaps. I dont think we need to limit him and his skillset to any position, were pretty deep at corner and weak at FS. His value is even higher for us knowing he can slide back to FS if we need him there.

    I'd rather see the team start stacking up on quality Oline instead. Quality CBs don't mean squat if the offense doesn't score or even stay on the field long enough for the defense to get a break.

    I’m just happy we finally have real cbs, remember the days of rookie Bradberry and Worley. Sheesh that was not fun to watch.

    Bouye is already under contract next season.  Donte is not.

    I'd be very surprised if Gilmore would sign to play safety.  He can get big money to play corner, really big money.  If Henderson plays up to his draft position, it will be an amazing collection of corners, something where years from now will look back and say they were all on the same team one year.

     

    I mean if you read my post I mentioned both Donte needing to be resigned. I doubt he’s signing any sort of small contract to play either, I’m just making the point that due to our surplus of CB talent and our utter lack of FS talent he could be more impactful personnel wise at FS.

    This year or if we keep Gilmore Next season, I see zero reason to move him to FS.  

    he would be the best CB on the team.   Why wouldn’t you play the best CB at CB? 

     

    Personally I think he’s the best DB in the league, he’s played FS in New England. And you can make the argument that the differential in talent between Gilmore and Burris is far greater then the talent difference between him and Jaycee. I understand your point but I think there could be some real value in even a part time role at FS.

  7. The Stephon Gilmore trade is even more interesting then I first realized. He has position flexibility to play free safety, a position we are really weak at. Maybe he doesn’t play free safety this year with Jaycee out, but next year with Jaycee back I think that it could be a real possibility. Also, I think there’s a strong chance we bring Donte back, Frittergoat clearly loves his DBs.

    CB-Donte

    CB-Jaycee

    Slot- Henderson(or Bouye if he resigns)

    FS- Gilmore

    SS- Chinn

    + Keith Taylor as a really strong backup option 

    That lineup is the best DB group in the league with zero doubt. Plus we finally get a real FS in the first time in 10 years.
