Huh? Why? Even with him, CB might be the biggest need on defense and he is still playing on high level.

5th rounder only also? Jeez, just awful.

Good trade for Dallas. Needed a CB

What’s the money? Asking for a new deal?

Generally the first question to ask and look into when a move like this is made.

Why are Colts doing this?

Good pickup for Cowboys

He probably requested a trade, but you have to get something better. Gilmore can still play.

Corners at his age? Most 30 plus year old nfl vets don’t get much via trade outside of OL. Day 3 picks.

Yeah. He's too old to be of any help for any team looking to rebuild things. I'm surprised he only landed a 5th considering he's not exactly on a big contract

Maybe he wants to redo his deal? Always follow the money.

Gilmore is on the final year of his contract with a base salary of $7.9 million. Guys usually play their best when it's time to look for another new deal.

He was playing at the Pro-Bowl level in the first half of the season, had a couple of bad games late in the year but, by the point, the entire team pretty much quit.
