Damond Talbot Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 What do you think Bills fans? With both Mario and Mark up front now, and the Bills getting a rush, are Stephon and Aaron the best young corners in the business? What do you think? http://nomorelinks.com/draft-news/do-the-bills-have-the-best-young-cornerback-duo-in-the-nfl/
Gugny Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 With zero games played together, it's a little premature to rate Stephon and Aaron. This will be a great question in about 8 or 9 weeks, though.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Wait a season or two before we make that proclamation. PTR
mrags Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 I would have said Gilmore and Brooks myself. I think Brooks has all that's needed to be a starting shut down corner. Williams doesn't seem to me like he has that ability. Very good as a nickle DB but I think Brooks will be starting when he returns.aybe not right away but i'd guess next year. But yes, we really need to wait and see.

What do you think? http://nomorelinks....duo-in-the-nfl/ No, that's absurd. Gilmore hasn't played a game yet. Williams hasn't been very good. Brooks won't play for a few months at the least. This is ridiculous
VanCity Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Brandon Carr may not be that young, but I'd have to say he and Claiborne are a helluva combo and average out pretty young. I live Gilmore plenty, but rating them as the best already is heavily premature.
Best Player Available Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Williams? Williams? You're talking about Aaron Williams? LOL!
LiterateStylish Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Cowboys. By far. Carr and Claiborne are a ridiculous combo.

I live Gilmore plenty, but rating them as the best already is heavily premature. Carr and Claiborne at this point are better. Case closed.
folz Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Not yet. I do think Gilmore is going to be special, but he'll have his share of rookie mistakes this year no matter how good he is. I'm not sure about Aaron yet...he looked vulnerable in the preseason, but it is only his second year, first year starting, so he may come on during this season or next season. But too early to tell. I agree with mrags that I think eventually Brooks will be the better corner than Williams. So, maybe in another year or two if they all develop as we hope, they could become one of the best young secondaries with Glimore and Brooks on the outside, Williams in the slot, and Byrd, still relatively young, in the backfield.
Damond Talbot Posted September 7, 2012 Author Posted September 7, 2012 Carr is a veteran, but It will be interesting, because the Bills are young, I think they will get tons of picks this year

Can't forget Rogers either. With him as the 4th I'm very comfortable. And not that we will but if McKelvin tears it up this year and we keep him he could be the weak link and that ain't that bad if he's your 3rd to 5th DB. I'm ok with who we have for sure. Young to say the least, let's just hope they mature quickly.
Thunderstealer Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Nix said he hopes teams throw at Gilmore when asked if they'd run zone more due to inexperience.
BringBackFergy Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Based on what I saw from A. Williams in preseason, I'd have to vote "no".
Maury Ballstein Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Is this a serious question? The answer is a resounding NO. Gilmore hasn't played a single snap yet and williams is blah from what I have seen.
5 Wide Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Aaron Williams looks like he is another Drayton Florence
LiterateStylish Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Is this a serious question? The answer is a resounding NO. Gilmore hasn't played a single snap yet and williams is blah from what I have seen. Williams is not blah at all. He is raw but his talent is incredible.
