TexasDomer Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 My biggest miscalculation, I’m glad to say. He was a great acquisition that I was skeptical about. Can’t wait to see him in the NFL. That strip in the bowl game was a good final touch for game film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndomer4 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Goes for the strip too often and usually gets dragged by ball carriers. Don’t think he has elite speed or ball skills, I think he’s a very late draft pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domer Dude Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Makes too many plays too often. Too many game MVP awards like ISU game. Too many tackles with only 35 more than the next closest DB. He just does too damn much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgandonor Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Good for him....but a fifth year would have did him justice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just does too damn much. He’s a good player but I’m evaluating him like the NFL would. Many late round picks are great college players, but we all know tons of great college players who couldn’t make it in the NFal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synoptico Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Good for him....but a fifth year would have did him justice... Not sure I agree... He downsides arent going to get changed by another year. He won't grow. The other thing, he did a prep year before Navy, so he is 5 years removed from High School, so this would be his 6th year. He isnt getting any younger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ND_JACK Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 A great player for us. I hope he can make it at the next level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isnt getting any younger. agreed, I do not think he will be a high draft pick, but there is little he could do next year that would improve his draft stock. I wish the best for him, but I see him as mostly a special teams guy and backup safety in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corysold Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 He’s not 5’9”. 5’11” isn’t ideal, but average is 6’0 or so, so he isn’t that far off. Whether he is good enough to overcome that is a different question left to the NFL scouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his coverage skills will be the question, but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't make a roster due his special teams and all around skill set.

Since the early 2000's, ND safeties seem to do OK in the NFL. I believe that it is due to safety in the pros being a mentally challenging position and ND players are better equipped in that area (i.e. they're smarter) than the typical college safety.

Gillman is more of a player than Matthias Farley and Mattias has held his own in the NFL. On the right team in the right position Gillman will be a stud. He doesn't walk and talk with an attitude. He thinks and plays with an attitude - it's in his blood. Edited December 31, 2019 by Domer Dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jersey Irish Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 A great player for us. I hope he can make it at the next level. No doubt in my mind, he will be great in the NFL. Kudos to the team that drafts him because he will outperform the late round he is drafted in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
