He needs to prove himself this year. He's a big boy now.

He's got a coach under which he should be able to shine.

And they really need to not let him walk away if he does.

Last year he started slow and finished quite well.

Another Krusty Brand Seal of Approval player: He's not just good, he's good enough!

Gilmore's not a complete waste in the Maybin/McCargo mold, but he's yet another one who never became the player we were hoping far. Far too much of that with this team.....

Terrible post.. Gilmore isn't in the Sherman/Revis/Peterson group but he is better than at least 70% of the starting CBs in the NFL

70%? Your vision is clouded by red and blue colored glasses. And a CB taken that high should be in that group. But as usual, Buffalo fans suffer from lowered expectations.

Gilmore is solid.

The big plays that he gave up last year were due to some pretty good passes or just when the pass rush didn't get there. NFL QBs are going to make throws, and give an NFL QB and WR all day to run around and throw then they are going to make plays on any DB. He's head and shoulders the most talented CB on the Bills right now and is heading into his prime.

Your vision is clouded by 15 years of pessimism.

Gilmore is the best CB the Bills have drafted in a long time.

Well worth keeping after his first contract is finished.

I think Gilmore sucks and has always sucked.

How so?

SG let a higher completion percentage (61%) than Leo/CG and didn't rank favorably by the end of November, per PFF (http://bills.buffalonews.com/2014/11...ough-to-judge/).

From his rookie season I didn't get where all the praise was coming from. He seems good for either a penalty or pass catch every 3rd down.

You're joking right? Clements, Winfield? It can even be argued legitimately Leodis and Robey have played better last two years.

That makes sense, lol. So you are agreeing that he is better than 70% of the CBs. But he might not be in the top 10 which he should be according to the draft position. So your solution would be? To cut him and replace him with a guy that is drafted lower but that is also WORSE than Gilmore!?!?!
That makes sense. So the team would be worse but at least the guy would perform up to his drafting status. Wow, I wonder why you did not already became a GM in the NFL. Looking to learn more from you.

I know, your response will be that you never said that we should cut him. I know. But what is your beef than? That we are praising a good player that plays for the Bills. Good grief, how dare we...
You are only ranting without providing any solutions, suggestions. Weak sauce.

Re: Bills exercise the 5th year option on Gilmore

Gilmore is a good CB but is always injured whether severely or slightly. He's sort of Spiller in that way. Every time he takes the field you're excited about what you could easily see him do and scared about how easily he could get injured.

Talent wise he's worth the money but I'd just like to see him stay on the field for the whole year.

Re: Bills exercise the 5th year option on Gilmore

He's got that cool CB Predator hair so you know he's worth it.
