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

[Bourne Again Christian]

They are clearly trying to get a better offer with the leak.

My fear.

Can the deal be official already plz? Something tells me the brownies are playing a game to get more.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

My goodness. That group is nasty. Gordon as the third option... Dorsett/Hogan as the fifth!

As long as Brady gets time...

 

[carmelo15]

**** man can y’all stop with the Dez talk

 

[RobertWeathers]

lol.....true.....except now it's burning his ass

...and they are still a 12 win team

 

[A Defiant Goose]

lol........because crappy route runners who show up during the season will sure as hell get brady's attention

I bet you cried when you got toys during Christmas because the batteries weren't included

Goes a little overboard on the catnip though....

Difference is Gordon has actually had success and has dominated in this league before. He just needs to stay out of trouble and learn the playbook. Two question marks but the talent is definitely there.

At the same time his biggest challenge other than off field issues is earning QB's trust. Lot of wideouts have tried and failed . Lets hope if this happens , it works out.

I have my doubts about the man. Not his ability on the field, but his ability to be ELIGIBLE to be on the field. If this were last year, where we had Cooks, Edelman, Amendola, and Hogan already showing chem with Brady, I would be against this.

But right now, Patterson is what he is and our #4 receiver is Coleman. Even if Gordon flames out in two weeks, chances are someone of Coleman's potential will still be there. You lose nothing but the draft pick by trying this.

The bigger concern for me would be if he does well, becomes a big part of the offense, then gets popped right before the playoffs. We don't tend to fare well (no team does really) when we lose a cog with little time to adjust before a winner takes all.

Should be interesting!

walking away from guys like chandler jones

Same Chandler Jones that use to go invisible after Thanksgiving?

 

[Edelmania]

this is hilarious.....

Eh id still rather have isaiah wynn for the next 4 years than cooks for 1.

 

[Coolade2]

After yesterday... Got diminished faith in mcD working any player into a game plan since it looked so scattered.. that said. Who TF knows what they are thinking.

Maybe they are building a human pyramid of WR prospects and taking selfies...

Anyways. I got "high" hopes for this guy.

...and they are still a 12 win team

maybe....I'll take the under

no, just yours.

wrong and completely irrelevant......what is relevant is that WR's don't just show up here and tear things up

 

[PatsFan2]

Coleman is an unknown. Just like Josh.

I hope the Pats keep Coleman he'll be known soon enough the way these guys drop like flies.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Imagine how they'd react to the game being blacked out locally. I remember when they were. I also remember things were so bad for so long, that Hugh Millen and a 6 win season under **** McPherson felt like a SB was imminent.

Anyhow, I love the adding Gordon, should it actually happen. I do worry about a potential suspension later in the season, based on the rumors of him looking "off" or what have you a few days ago. He's a game changer tho, and this offense could use a weapon like that.

I wonder who gets cut to make room for him.

I'm not trying to come across as a "I'm a better Pat Fan than you" poster but it is true. The Millenials (no disrespect) and Gen Z just don't know that kind of hopelessness.

I was psyched when Mac was hired and Jankcovich was brought in from The U.

Then reality came. Those guys were outclassed. Jesus.

But the 91 season was kinda fun. Lots of close games.....still 6-10.
