Stephon Gilmore A True Option

[ClarkCam]

The main knock on Gilmore is not that he is bad at coverage, its more that he is inconsistent and inexperienced, with only three years playing CB at a high level. This, of course, will get better over time. I don't know if this means Gilmore or Dre, but I'm pretty sure that most NFL teams are looking at both of these guys if they are looking at CB.

I like Gilmore a lot. Would not be upset at all with him at 9th overall.

Gilmore is a reach at 9. If we trade back get more picks then I'm cool with Gilmore being the pick.

Also People need to forget Chandler Jones in the 2nd round. He won't be there.

People need to stop forgetting there are only 32 picks in the first round. Just because you designate someone a first round talent doesnt mean that he will go in the first 32 picks.

Dont forget he is really young too. True Junior coming out.

ALL OF A SUDDEN!!!!!!!

Sorry.

He's not a reach at 9 anymore, he's considered the 2nd rated CB and some scouts are rating him very close to Claiborne. He'll actually probably be BPA at #9 and has easily moved himself into the top 10 on draft day. I'm not sure if Carolina makes the pick, but I wouldn't be upset about it. I'd rather have DL help though.

Reach is such an overused word in the 1st these days with the rookie pay scale the way it is.

A reach in the 1st is now taking a guy you can easily have in the late 2nd or early 3rd with a first round pick. It's not taking a guy that could be gone 6 spots later.

If they draft him, I'll be fine with it. He's only been a CB 3 years and is getting better.

Still not sure I want us to get a corner in the first though.

Reach is not an over used word when you take a player in the 1st rnd that may not immediately contribute. I don't even think Gilmore is better than Cap, so we can stop right there because we need a #2 CB.

You're absolutely blind if you don't think Gilmore is better than Cap. They're nothing alike, and Gilmore was better in college, at the same one no less.

Gilmore has everything on Cap. Don't let fanboyism blind yourself, Gilmore would immediately be our solid #2.

You need to check your eyesight. I've seen Gilmore get burned numerous times and I don't think that he's better than Cap, nore do I want him as our #2. Janoris Jenkins is far better than Gilmor.

[Growl]

Gilmore's the only CB in this draft other than Claiborne I wouldn't have a problem with at 9.

[carpanfan96]

Gilmore is the most physically gifted CB in this draft, he just has an issue with technique right now. He's also a student of the game and is a leader on the field. Capt isn't a starting caliber NFL CB nor does he have that ability, Gilmore however does have the ability to be a starter.

Gilmore> Captain, its not really a debate....

Gilmore reminds me of one of the guys I played football with in high school, the guy decided not to play some FCS football, but he was our stud on our team. Gilmore reminds me of a swag player who can lead a secondary... He actually helped call the plays in his secondary.

If Stephon Gilmore is "truly" an option at #9 (lol),

Then what is Lance Lewis worth??

Lance Lewis is a WR out of ECU that took Stephon Gilmore to church in a head to head machup. Lance Lewis had 13 catches 108 yards and 2 TDs against South Carolina.

Game against South Carolina

Ya'll just take that in for a minute, and then apologize for even thinking he deserves to be in the top 10. Look at those fugging ball skills! EW!!!

[PantherPhann89]

We all have our opions but I don't think he's worthy of #9
