Bethel Johnson, Brandon Tate, Chad Jackson
AaronDobson Josh Boyce.
This should shake everyone of us to our core.
We need to fire the person or persons who made these decisions.
Ask yourself again a reformed motivated Josh Gordon with his last chance at greatness.
He actually might of been more of a victim to Goodells tyranny then even Tom.
The man had a drink at a wedding.
Imagine the FU tour they would have together against the league.
Please BB make it happen.
 
I also worry about Gordons abioity to pick this offense up. . Not a lot of players can successfully pull it off and it requires someone with a crazy work ethic that is willing to put the extra time in at the office and at home learning every nuance of the play book so that Tom will trust them to be in the right place at the right time

Randy Moss was a crazy down field talent that completely changed this offense, but he was also an incredible football mind that had a very high football IQ, and broke the game down into the nitty gritty details on Tom Brady's level. Is Josh Gordon someone that sparks confidence in you that he would be that guy?

I'd love to try him out and see if he fits, I'd just be very reluctant to give up anything substantial in draft compensation for him is all, but I can understand why some people would be willing to take that chance given his talent level
 
Players like Josh you make it work in the offense.
You dont trade Calvin Johnson because he doesnt know the terminology.
You dont trade Deion Sanders cause he cant tackle.
You dont trade Tony Gonzalez because he wont block.
You dont trade Richie Incognito because hes a prick.

YOU MAKE IT WORK!

You don't cut Aaron Hernandez because he killed a few people....

Gordon is on his last chance, the next drink, pill, powder, crystalized product,unauthorized/tainted supplement he takes is a lifetime bar. So I wouldn't mortgage the future on him. Who knows if Cleveland even wants him back, if they are truly "cleaning house" they might get rid of him too. I wouldn't send more than a fourth round pick to Cleveland for him. He is still under his rookie deal ( 2016 salary is $1.068 million) and is controllable as a restricted free agent for another season, so Cleveland might still hold onto him, because he is cheap (salary wise). Plus he hasn't played a snap in over 18 months.
 
I just added him on Madden and against Pitt he had 12 receptions 298 yards 4 tds

Well, ****, then...Let's give'm our whole Draft!!

On the real, I'd probably trade a 3rd or a 4th. A 1st (next season) or a 2nd is a lot to give up for a guy that is one failed drug test away from a long term ban again.
 
I don't think the Browns have a lot of leverage here. Josh Gordon is probably another incident or two away from being out of this league like Blackmon. From us, I think the most they will ask is a third round pick along with some depth player.

With that being said, I'd pay whatever pick they want (except first round picks) to get him. Our organization can't evaluate for **** as far as WRs go in the draft anyways. Josh Gordon would easily be our best WR since Randy Moss and would solve a lot of problems on the offense. Brady's deep ball is not good but honestly with a guy like Gordon he could probably make a lot of contested catches like Moss did in 2007, which would help tremendously since this forces teams to not triple cover Gronk and it opens up everything with Gronk only double/single covered and Edelman running havoc as a Z/slot receiver.
 
I would give them a 6th rounder. Why? What if he gets suspended again?
 
This is my offer..................NOTHING.
 
I think a 2nd is too much. Cleveland should be fine with a 3rd rounder (preferably 2017) + maybe a player

Point B


If he truly will be on the trade
block, I offer enough to be the highest
bidder. Best WR talent in NFL in 2013 & maybe only WR seen since Moss with effortless breakaway speed.
 
I just added him on Madden and against Pitt he had 12 receptions 298 yards 4 tds and Brady completed 88.9 percent of his total passes with 7 total tds.
Id give up alot for him.

How could you play against any other team except Denver???
 
Started franchise week one was against Pitt.
Additions were
Josh Gordon
Marvin Jones
Justin Hunter
Traded for Cincys Hill as a feature back
Added Cordy Glenn got to protect the franchise
