Five-time All-Pro Stephon Gilmore cost the Cowboys a reasonable price.
The Dallas Cowboys' offseason has been full of "big splashes."
Stephon Gilmore was traded. It's not the 90s Deion Sanders signing, but Dallas hopes it wins a Super Bowl.
Gilmore, a five-time All-Pro, can push quarterbacks who "gotta throw it somewhere" into interceptions by him, Trevon Diggs, or Dan Quinn's other ballhawks.
Gilmore's former teammate DeForest Buckner told ESPN that Gilmore demanded a trade this offseason.
This explains how the Cowboys acquired Gilmore for a 2023 compensatory fifth-round pick.
Gilmore is too old to play for a team rebuilding for a future he won't be a part of.
Dallas is expected to be an NFC contender in 2023, so the Colts did what was best for the experienced cornerback at this point in his career. Given their current status, the Colts did well to get younger at the position.
