Who Is Bryan Gilmore?
Bryan Gilmore, Midwestern State |
Usually, players like Gilmore are anonymous. You don't know them when they're signed. You don't notice them when they play. And you don't read about it when they're cut. Naturally, it's pretty hard to find any information on the Bryan Gilmores of the world. That's why I found this blurb from the official 49ers site kinda cool and very funny.
Sounds like an undiscovered Torry Holt. The guy has a whole page dedicated to his rather modest career. That's kind of charming. If only he were any good, hm? Just further proof that in the NFL, one in a thousand doesn't cut it. |

Oh, the internet
There are all kinds of fun tangents to get lost in.

Hmm . . .
if you’re fast, accelerate quickly, run precise routes, and attack coverages well, but have no career . . . kinda makes you wonder if maybe you have lousy hands.

I would guess that's part of it.
I would also guess the 49ers PR department isn’t paid to be honest.

Well, yes, that's possible too
but questioning the veracity of media guides is way too easy. :)

Or Possibly...
Gilmore has had field generals like Jay fiedler, Jeff Blake, Josh McCown, and Alex Smith getting him the ball.
It might surprise many to see what a guy like Hasselbeck can do for a WR’s career.

Gilmore and the Niners
This is Fooch from Niners Nation. I still can’t remember why he was in camp last year.

I think because he hits his speed burst quickly.
One can’t overvalue that.

Gilmore has been running sub 4.4 40’s since college, trust me i played with him for 4 yrs..Him and Dominic Rhodes(colts rb) are the best players to ever come out of MSU..He is no #1 receiver but can contribute if the ball gets his way more often….
