Gilmore is not resigning here. Why in the world would he want to sign long term with our team?

He wouldn’t.  He is a DB for hire.  And a top 3 one at that   

rebuilding teams with no QB and OL shouldn’t dump money at guys like that

Hmmm…not sure how how going 5/16 to 5/17 is an upward trend….also not sure how this implies, in any reasonable sense, that things will turn around with essentially the same exact team minus big players you can’t afford to sign and a gutted draft

i mean what exactly is going to change?

Exactly. What they are thinking is they are going to trade for Watson and he's going to save us; however, he already used his no trade clause against us. And again why would he want to come here?

His wife is tired of leaving Charlotte/Waxhaw during the season

Dude has a ring, dude has a DPOTY award. He’s not hunting anything but money possibly.

Gilmore very well may give a hometown discount. He'd be good in the locker room for the young corners. 

But yeah our defense is overrated. 

Even at a discount.  Gilmore is one of the top 3 DBs in the game.   

and we have no offense.  Doesn’t make sense to tie cap up in a player like him IMO. That cap and resources should go to building up the roster.

Home town discount my a** he's arguably the best corner in the league and is a winner..... he is going to want to get paid what he's worth and play for a contender.

Okay, then why would we resign him when we have to resign Reddick already and all our upcoming draft picks... we only have 29 million in cap and you just wiped it out there with Reddick and Gilmore. You did not touch the oline or QB position and we traded away all our draft picks. Plus, what is the point to sign a 32 year old to a big contract when you may be the worst team in the league next year........

Cap is a myth…Saints prove that every year.

We are right in the middle with cap space so Samir can make it work.

Do I think he resigns here? No

is it impossible? No

Thats the thing with FA you never know till you get there.

My point being he’s not the kind of player that HAS to go to a contender…he’s been there.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
