Donte Jackson for Stephon Gilmore - Who says no?

[RIPTreyLance]

Alright. Hear me out. Donte is a very serviceable corner with some upside, and he is a nice chess piece to have on the defense. That being said, he's in the final year of his deal and unless we resign him soon it looks like he could hit the open market. 

If the patriots would go for it, why not trade Donte for Stephon to pair him with Jaycee? Stephon is a top 3 press corner in the league and would mesh beautifully with Jaycee. He could also teach him and polish his game up considering they're in the same mold. We could keep Stephon for the final years of his career...

2 Gamecocks corners together...

If we need to add a couple extra picks to make this even, we should do it. Fittergoat will get them back anyway in next year's draft

[Basbear]

This all depends on what type future contract Djack and Gilmore currently want as both are on 1 year deals. 

Best value gets my pick.

Too expensive and old for what we are building.

[Cdparr7]

He’s a 30 year old corner. We might get 1 decent season maybe 2 before production drops off or injuries pile up. Plus he’s much more expensive. We would be better off resigning Jackson or franchise tagging him and trading him next off season.

That’ll be the dumbest move ever. Gilmore is on his last year. You don’t trade future picks to rent Gilmore for a year. 

They're both on the final years of their deals, I'm just looking ahead to the future. If Donte doesn't wanna stay here, we might as well get something back for him now, and this was what I came up with

Gilmore is win now piece 

[TheCasillas]

Donte outplayed stephon Gilmore last year. Why would I make this deal?

[Scott12345]

No...Gilmore costs way too much

and yes he is better

So we can play press man with him and Jaycee and Brian burns & Reddick will eat

[MHS831]

I have no issue trading Jackson, considering where we seem to be headed defensively, but I would not target a player to get for him--trade him for a third rounder in 2022.

You don’t trade with Bill Belichick. You’ll always get screwed. He knows when it’s time to let his players go. 

He definitely knew when to let Brady go.  I mean TB is completely washed up.
