Don’t pay overpay a 31 year old CB on the decline.

huge decline in play from 2019 to 2020

From PFF for what it’s worth:

Gilmore was comfortably the No. 1 cornerback in the league heading into the 2020 season, fresh off a Defensive Player of the Year award in 2019. The outlook isn’t nearly as rosy heading into 2021 after a noticeable decline in play last season.

After recording three straight coverage grades of at least 85.0 in New England’s defense, Gilmore put up just a 58.5 coverage grade in 2020. He recorded just one interception and two pass breakups on 42 targets, allowing a career-high 96.7 passer rating into his coverage. Whether it was injuries or age starting to show in one of the man-heaviest defenses in the NFL, he was not the same player in 2020.

Yep age hits CBS and RBs the fastest. He may have two good years left but they won’t be back to back or on par with his previous. Still would be a solid pickup at the right price. Watch the Rams pay him 66 mill for 3 years.

Brahma Brahma always appreciate the yearly reminder of the most talented RB ever

Ok, and? "Lost the respect" is one of the dumbest tropes in professional football. These guys only care about stats and their next contract. They want to do as little as humanly possible for the most money and win as a secondary concern.

I'm sure Urban will let you dance on his lap to.

Patriots KNEW Gilmore was not going to play for that last year of his contract. Either trade him last year, where you get a low 1st high 2nd...or fuckin pay him. God BB sucks as GM.

Lat year? Top five corner? Coming off defensive player of the year? It's not a reach man.

He was also 30 years old with a not small contract. They'd have done better than a 6th probably, but even a 2nd would have been a huge stretch.

I think it came down to he was not getting used as much now and they wanted to negate his 2022 injury guarantee or something along those lines
