Yep, I agree... Right now, we need another good CB during this 'transition' phase for the new HC and F.O. I feel good about our direction, but we need to solidify our positional talent for the short term while allowing the young guys to develop. It's going to be a delicate balancing act. Gilmore is 33 Y.O.. I think he has several years left (2-3 maybe ??) if he wants to continue playing. I would not want to draw a line in the sand and write him off on a certain date. If he wants to play, and he continues to be successful and useful, then keep him available and use him. Gilmore has a talent we need. Let's give him a chance, then decide.......
