So about Jaycee Horn… any official updates?

[LinvilleGorge]

I wouldn't anticipate him being back this year. Even once the injury is healed he's not going to be in football shape and he's gonna be way rusty. See ya next year, Jaycee.

I never thought I’d say this but if you had to choose between the two you take Gilmore even tho djax is much younger. We just have so many talented corners that it makes up for the loss of djax and having Gilmore as the steady vet. who btw is playing lights out like maybe the best player on our team. He is erasing whoever he is up against. 
 

I think Taylor is going to be a player for us. He’s shown shutdown traits just needs more playing time and experience. And hopefully cj comes along nicely as well. He played well yesterday.

Agreed. I love Jackson but Gilmore is an elite corner and hands down the best defender on the team. Actually, he is the best player on our team period(all due respect to CMC).

Resign Gilmore and Jackson. Admit it was a mistake to draft Horn and trade him to someone for a first rounder. Too easy.

God we have some tough decisions at CB and I hate to lose any of them at all. They all have value in some similar and some different ways. Gilmore still seems to have it and Jackson has been wonderful this year as well as a good leader. He has grown by leaps and bounds but unfortunately something tells me Jackson gets a HUGE deal and leaves us behind. I believe Jackson continues to play well and will really help another team in the future but unfortunately I don't think it will be us. He will be sorely missed.

I dont think we actually do. We have CJ, Chinn and Horn all on rookie deals. 

Gilmore is 31 so sign him to a 3 year deal. 

DJack I would sign to align with Horns rookie contract (4 year deal) then you can make the decision on 1 of them in the future. 

I actually think the timing of all of this works out very well. You can resign everyone now and kick that can down the road. We will know in 3 or 4 years if Henderson and Horn are who we thought they were.

1st off this isn't madden. 

2nd Horn looked really good when he was playing. His college resume backs that up. We were lucky we stumbled into CJ and Gilmore. We have a strength at this position which benefits our pass rush. Lets not mess with that.

Haven’t played Madden since high school.

At this point unless injury dictates it he's probably not going to play with the abundance of caution. Now Cam Eving on the other hand could come back and that would actually probably help more.

Hows grade 11 going for you? 

Im just poo posting cause I dont want to work... I get what your saying regarding Horn now that we are super deep at CB but we need to keep a strength a strength.

He was drafted to shutdown Pitts in ATL. Matty  Slice is doing a fine enough job. Let him recover at his own pace.

Do you think Horn was a reactionary pick to Pitts?

Not 100% but it was reported/repeated ad nauseam that Horn did cover him EXTREMELY well in college and that played a role in his drafting. Outside the fact that he’s a damn good player.

Regardless, my post was a half hearted poo post. Don’t read too much into it.
