Great guy but he's never been the same since the unfortunate injury in that bowl game while at Notre Dame. He has become a liability in the run game the last couple of seasons.

Leighton Van Der Esch could be released in a year or so as well. Parsons & Jabril Cox are already bright spots & fits Dan Quinn's scheme.

I like Davis, Werner, Kwon, Baun and the rest of our young LB'ers. Bring in a wide receiver instead.

We're going to be bringing in Tre'Quan Smith and Michael Thomas soon.

Gilmore now available. Rather him. Our offense isn’t just one player away from being one of the leagues best, our defense is.

We can't come close to affording what he wants.

I like what we have at LB, and Gilmore is headed to the Panthers.

Carolina had like the second most cap space available and were one of the teams that could most easily handle Gilmore's numbers.

I just read that he is suspect in coverage. We already have Baun in that role. Werner looked good when I've seen him play. He's probably the future. A second round draft pick should have all the tangibles and most of the intangibles and he looks like he's been well coached and I hear he's smart. That looks like a kid with a bright future in New Orleans.
