#22: Stephon Gilmore (CB, Patriots) | Top 100 Players of 2019 | NFL

Moment in silence for all the Pats fans who sold dude out after the first 4 games of the '17 season. Haha Belichick finally cashes a player out and your instinct was to give up four games in!? 🤡 Another moment in silence for all of the haters & doubters who refused to give cred even after he emerged as one of the most consistent 🔒⬇️ defenders in the league. Ask Hop, Adams, Diggs, Allen, Cooks or Robinson what it's like up close. Game recognize game and Gilmore deserves his rank as best corner in the league!

[@Lucas-hl3gd]

I blame his bad start half way on him just getting there and Eric Rowe really having bad communication problems every time he went out there with Gilmore and Butler. When Jon Jones started in the slot is when things got better for Gilmore

[@nexusproject2290]

I will admit when we initially signed him I thought we maybe gave a little to much money but never doubted what he was capable of. Even through his slumps he was our best corner and you could see it immediately. I will say I was wrong though and glad I was, he deserves every penny and more.
