I like that they’re working him out. He’s probably cooked but maybe not. Pat Pete was a wisened old vet and was solid for us for a couple seasons recently.
True, but we landed Peterson when he was 31. Gilmore will be 34 in September. Peterson just turned 34 in July. I think Gilmore was a more effective CB at 33 than Peterson was at 33, but still....34 is REALLY old for a CB.
That said, I 100% hope we sign him. We desperately need some quality CB depth among our top 3 or 4 corners, and I think he definitely qualifies as that. And who knows, maybe he can defy age. Darrell Green and Charles Woodson were able to play well into their mid-to-late 30s...
