Both corners were basically offered the same amount of money last offseason (65 vs. 67.5 mill) but one of them has quite evidently proven to be the superior DB this season. Bouye is 26 right now, Gilmore is 27. Bouye had an excellent season with the Texans prior to hitting FA, while Gilmore had a down year with a Pro-Bowl nod that wasn't really justifiable. Bouye was considered to be a one-year wonder, which left a few teams thinking twice before attempting to sign him. So what if the Patriots had signed Bouye - who was a Texans FA - instead of Gilmore?
