zazie Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 QUESTION - WERE YOU ALSO ONE OF THE GUYS THAT HATED THE GAILEY & NIX HIRE ??? HMMMMMM ????? If so he'll make you eat crow !!!!!! I was not impressed with the Gailey hire, that is for sure. So far, not so good, not so bad. This year will prove it either way. Nix I had never heard of and did not have an opinion either way.
Sisyphean Bills Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I hope he doesnt get cocky like Revis and suddenly hold out every 2 years once (or if) he has proven himself to be an elite player. I like the pick. But he doesnt seem to be a people person. Be happy with Gilmore.
Bill from NYC Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Im just curious to know what you didn't like about him I can tell you mine concerns..... Using early picks on defensive backs simply has not worked for us. This is beyond dispute. And, imo we are not strong at LB. If this particular player can break this obvious, contimuous pattern, I too will eat crow.
John from Riverside Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Watching him play a few times last year and in the videos I thought he lacked the change of direction skills needed to cover a #1 WR in the NFL, or at least enough that he wasn't really worthy of a high 1st Round pick. The season hasn't started yet, but I find myself being more at ease with the pick now. No, I love what Gailey and Nix have done with this team. Fair enough The fact that Gilmore played well with two of the best wide receivers to come out of the draft in some time (the year before he was drafted) makes me think he is simply a hell of a football player. Honestly I think we have a lockdown corner.....sure he will get beat this year......but the pass rush up front is going to cover up a lot of that
