If he has one more really good/great season, Stephon Gilmore is a shoe in hall of famer, right?

Defensive MVP plus a ring. Realistically, yeah, he gets in.

Hopefully the bust of him is the stupid face he makes when he gets beat and he looks around the field gesturing "whose fault was that? Not my fault"

Am I nuts or was he nothing special when he was a Bill ? All I can remember about his time here was him getting burned time and time again.

Another great year and he pretty much did what Revis did and he’s absolutely a hall of famer.

He was very good IMO until his last year here. He totally mailed it in

Gilmore has had a pretty good career. You look over there stats and White is basically on the same trajectory as Gilmore other than tackles, White gets involved a little more in that category. And hard to tell with Interceptions, but if White keeps up his pace he will blow past Gilmore.

I wouldn’t have said shoe in if he didn’t win DPOY. That’s tough for a corner. I would bet White never wins that

It will be a tough thing to do for White that's for sure.

Thought he was good. Some people think when a corner gives up a play he sucks. They play the best WRs in the league when your the #1. Those guys avg 1400 and 10. Yes they are gonna make a play against you here and there

Pretty good article here on Cozens and possible line combos for him next year.

That's it, you could slip on a play and that's all it takes. Giving up zero or even 1 touchdown is incredible to me, with who a true #1 corner usually plays against.

Nice find Pegs, like the Kahun mojo Cozens line, I don't see why you wouldn't try Cozens at C. But also think a Skinner Cozens Smith line could be interesting.

I was pissed when he Roger Dorned it in the middle of that season.

Certainly not if he stays in Buffalo. They would have to get to the level of the Super Bowl teams in order for him to even get in the conversation. Though the All-Pro this year was a nice surprise, he certainly earned it.

I personally agree that I think Cozens will start off on the wing but I also wouldn’t be shocked if he stayed at the Centre position either in a bottom 6 role.

It will be interesting to see how it all plays out, whenever that may be

Think we got a good one there. Hopefully they can add another good piece at 8 this year. I would have agreed earlier in the year about starting on the Wing, but the kid has grown so much throughout the year.

I said Kahun, Mojo and Cozens on here a week or two ago but with Cozens as the center. I don't want him to have to learn another position but to learn and play the center position in the NHL.

When you only have like 6 good players, focusing on one of those 6 good players is completely dumb. But that's just me
- jcragcrumple

But what if I told you ......Johan Larsson is one of those good players

I kid, sort of. Not interested in rehashing

Pommer 81 games played
21 goals 30 assist in the nhl playoffs = 51 points

10 points as a 23 year old rookie
4 game winners


Sam 0 games played
0 goals 0 assists in the nhl playoffs = 0 points

0 points as a 23 year old
0 game winners

- Boss34


So then Pommer over Eichel too then... right?!

We get it dude...
You irrationally hate Sam bc he declined a picture

Get over it... please
It’s been beyond tiresome for quite some time

Ideally...
I put him on the “3rd line” between MoJo & Kahun

But if we can’t bring in a legit 2C,
then I’m ok with him flanked by Skinner or Olofsson, and then Sam or whatever goal scoring RW we can get our hands on (Boeser, Tuch, Anderson, etc)

I don’t mind the idea of starting him at RW,
but that means we’ve gotta being in 2 centers
And that seems like a long shot to me

Cj Smith?
He doesn’t even look like an NHLer,
let alone slot in on a top6 line right away
That’s crazy

Are you also comfortable saying, with a straight face, that you actually believe a 1st line of Maroon - Eichel - Tage is a good idea?

I’m sure Jack could play well with anyone,
and make them better

But if we give him wingers like Maroon & Tage,
then top6 lines from most teams would likely dominate them

Sydney Crosby has success with bad wingers
