I actually think this is a player we shouldn't sign but trade him with now and get draft picks or a player. We free up $11,000,000 and apparently Kevon Seymour has looked excellent in camp.
Thoughts?

No
Not sure our cap is going to allow it anyway especially if Tyrod plays his was into an extension.
No.
Camp is camp, real games are a different matter. Gilmore is a proven corner, very good but not great in my opinion. Seymour has proven nada.
I mentioned before we have franchise tag in hand that we can actually retain Gilmore for one more year after this year, just in time for Darby to prove his worth of big money and Seymour to prove he can play in this league. I have to think that Gilmore's camp see that and try their best to force the hand right now.

I agree.
Trade him.
Too costly and risky an investment.
Trade him while his stock is high and before he gets hurt again!

I don't think Gilmore is an elite cb but he's solid .
in HH's case he wants to get rid of a proven player but keep a struggling coach (see his Rex thread). Got it.

Don't be the same old Bills team in the 2000s when we were the development team for other teams.

I'm not 100% sold on Gilmore, but I can't see how we possibly get real compensation. Unloading him for a third seems silly.

If I could get a Roman system RT, or a couple picks, I'd consider it. I'm curious to see how Gilmore does this year though. Might just be better to let him play like nuts for a new contract while they work on Seymour and then let him go to become another teams Byrd.

People are forgetting that Darby struggled down the stretch last season.
Gilmore is still the better man to man cover corner and he should be retained. That's what good teams do with their high draft picks when they perform well.
This team needs to stop drafting 1st round draft choices they have no commitment to signing after 3-4 years.
