If he doesn't get hurt, it's a pretty significant upgrade over Rock.

Risk for injury is real. His history isn't exactly stellar, but specifically since he turned the magic number 30... he's missed a lot of games with a strained knee, torn quad, and pulled groin. But if there's one thing about this FO, they do their due diligence. So medical must've looked good to them.

And I'm not terrified if he does end up going down for a couple games. Moore needs no explanation. Rodgers seems to be coming on. We know Gus Bradley really likes Facyson. Even lower end guys like Chesley and Tell have played a decent amount for us in the past.

All that considered, it seems like a good gamble that should pay off.

Nope, not yet. But kudos to him so far. Still need LT, wide receiver and tight end.

He can't fill all the holes in FA, some will have to come via the draft.

I’d still like to see a veteran receiver signed. The draft is loaded at the position, but it takes most of those guys at least a year to develop. We need a guy who will produce next season.

My guess is that they bring TY back at $$$ 4 million 1 year.

Defense keeps getting better, at least on paper. I love it.

Al Breer of Sports Illustrated (who has also covered sports for the Boston area) had some thoughts about the signing:

Gilmore's a really interesting fit . . . with the Colts. . . May not be the shutdown man-to-man guy he was a few years ago, but 100% fits Gus Bradley's mold for the position. And showing his worth in a Seattle-type system could add years to Gilmore's career.

Watching this one.

Continues a Colts trend this offseason that mirrors what the Patriots and Ravens have done in the past—signing third-contract veterans. Logic is there's more track record to go on and an added leadership/intangible element.

Think this move works to extend Gilmore's career too.

Risky, but good signing. Defense is shaping up.

Rapoport provided an update with a few more details about Gilmore's contract. Spotrac has not updated their website yet, however.
