The Josh Gordon Thread: Pats Officially Acquire Gordon for Fifth-Round Pick

[Deus Irae]

"Rapoport didn’t specify whether New England has called the Steelers about Bryant since the draft, but it would make sense for the Patriots to be looking for a wide receiver"

Yes...

Contending teams keep calling #Steelers on Martavis Bryant (& #Patriots called on him pre-draft)

 

[Triumph]

I'd think he'd jump at the opportunity to go home.

No sales tax on crack in Texas.

It'd be fascinating to know what Brady REALLY thought about this possibility.

We know how Gordon feels about brady

Josh Gordon praises Tom Brady after court removes suspension

BB benched Butler for the SuperBowl. Nobody above the rules. I am skeptical.

Gordon would never make it far enough to be benched for the Super Bowl.

 

[FoxboroFlyer]

Yes...

I've yet to see anything connecting the Pats to any interest in a Bryant trade from Pittsburgh. That's weak.

 

[Ring 6]

Bring Gordon in here ASAP

Nobody is stopping us with Gordon and Hogan on the outside while Edelman is destroying people in the middle.

Except Gordon

 

[rochrist]

Quit these disingenuous posts. Nobody in here is comparing careers, accomplishments, legacy, or games played. It's pretty obvious that people are referencing elite talent and off the field issues - NOTHING ELSE.

Comparing their off the field issue is exactly what's ludicrous.

He'd probably vomit. Brady likes smart, disciplined guys he can count on.

I can't believe he responded to your post, with that! Lol! It's what everyone that's anti Gordon is saying! The off field issues. That's why no one should compare him to Moss.

 

[Triumph]

The NE playbook would drive Gordon back to the gin and juice.

Randy Moss was a malcontent till he got to New England. His career’s pretty much on thin ice already. It’s worth a gamble in my estimation. The guy has been set up to fail with the Browns. It’s cleveland! Smoke bud 24/7.

 

[Deus Irae]

The Patriots have gambled on the likes of Dillon, Moss, Hernandez, Haynesworth, Johnson, et al., but a weed smoker is apparently a bridge too far for some people.

In terms of a rock-bottom situation, one could say it has similarities to Chris Carter's drug problems that finally led to his release from Philly by Buddy Ryan. If drug testing rules from today were in place back then, Carter would have had tons of suspensions too. He turned it around on his last chance, as a Viking. Almost all people with that problem do not.

Gordon has had only one elite year, so I know the comparison is a stretch in terms of duration of accomplishments. It is just that Carter is one of the few that drugged himself out of the NFL and then bounced back.

How? Moss was pretty much bored in Oakland. He wanted out. I think a fresh start wouldn’t hurt Gordon. Cleveland’s a dump. Going back home to the cowboys would be great if only his QB wasn’t dak Prescott. I think the Texans would make more sense.

It's not just Cleveland. Why do you think the guy declared for the supplemental draft when he came out? (Ineligible) He's a junkie. Period. Nothing will ever mean more to him than the green.

Was Moss ever caught up in drugs?

Gordon already has had a 1 year suspension.

God forbid he smacked the weed into a woman’s face.

The guy’s addicted to weed not cocaine. Like i said his career’s on thin ice already. Frankly it wouldn’t shock me if he forced himself out of Cleveland. That place is a dump.

This HAS to be trolling. I know you're not comparing a guy that got hit once, with Mr. 3x facing a life ban.

 

[FoxboroFlyer]

Maybe they could see what Ricky Williams is up to while we're at it. RB could use some juice, with the injuries and he's had a lot of time off.
