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

[Guts]

Yes!!! Things are looking good with Gordon, BB says Gordon has worked hard and has picked up a lot.

Bill Belichick on Josh Gordon: ‘He’s picked up a lot’

Wouldn't make too much of that me and you can get signed by the Pats, no NFL talent whatsoever and he'll say we smart and picking up a lot

Bill Belichick on Josh Gordon: ‘He’s picked up a lot’

He needs positive reinforcement BB is playing this right.
Gordon is like a lottery ticket and you have almost all the winning numbers picked out.
I have a feeling Haley may have made him want to get high.
Josh BB and Tom should try to build this kid.
Not tear him down.
BB understands everybody has to be coached differently.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

Sometimes mental instability comes with intelligence. High IQ and insanity is a fine line. Gordon, smart guy, might make it a year or two, but like Moss he will go off. Just the way his mind is wired.

Buddy, I hate to break it to you, but joining a gym, reading group, making music is not going to do anything, it's not going to do ****. Nothing is ever going to change, until you stop beating yourself up.

Girls can sense that a mile off. They can sense desperation and self-revulsion better than anything.

You're going to have to reprogram how you think of yourself- the brain is nothing more than habits and patterns. It's simply a matter of changing or "re-wiring" those patterns.
When you start accepting yourself, liking yourself for who you are, that's when you'll see and feel change.

Well...for the gym bit...I'll just let Robert Frank chime in:

When did moss assault people and show up late to meetings

At least for the assault people part

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Randy Moss has been charged with two misdemeanors in connection with an altercation with a traffic officer in Minneapolis. Moss bumped the officer with his SUV and knocked the officer down. Moss spent the night in the Hennepin County jail but was released. Moss was arrested and originally held on suspicion of a felony assault charge, one that could have landed him in jail for nearly two years.

Literally nothing.

Not claiming to know any of the details of that incident, but im always hesitate to believe assault charges against police until i get all the details

My friend got arrested for "assault against a police officer" because him and a buddy of his took a picture with a copy on halloween with hamburger costumers on.. never made contact with the cop or anything, it was dumb and juvenline but certainly not assault

Fortunately he made lots of money and had a lawyer, but they are quick to throw around the assault charge

Wait a minute.....

So your buddy, who was wearing a hamburger costume, was charged with assaulting a police officer because he was standing next to a him while a picture was being taken?

Sorry about your bud but that is hysterical. What a jerk cop.

They should have teamed up and gone as Officer Big Mac.

Yea, they made a scavenger hunt list of things they wanted to make a sandwhich of, one of the items was a cop sandwhich..

It was a female officer, i think she got offended or something so they snatched up his license and arrested him later that night aruond 3AM in his apartment

Was way over the top

 

[Urgent]

Bill Belichick on Josh Gordon: ‘He’s picked up a lot’

“He’s worked hard?” Belichick’s go to phrase is “no one has worked harder than [player]”.
That sounded ominous...

 

[JarOfMayo51]

for further clarification, it was an old friend of mine and a buddy of his.. one of them went as the top half bun, the other as the bottom bun.. and they would stand on each side of something for pictures to complete their list

it wasnt him by himself in a hamburger outfit, it took 2 of them to do the outfit and complete the list haha

That’s pretty clever.

Here’s how I’m gonna play in fantasy (I know nobody cares).

Start Gordon in flex. It’s an 8:20 game so normally I’d be screwed if he’s a last minute inactive. But I have Michel on my bench, so I plug him in if Josh can’t go.

I actually thought Michel looked good in his limited time last week. He’ll get his eventually.

The problem with Gordon this year in fantasy is that Brady has so many weapons to throw to, unlike in Cleveland where he was the man.

 

[ViperGTS]

This thread is going going to be looked upon years down the road as gem of epic proportions. Started as a trade thread of a player that was actually acquired for once, had “he sucks” about a totally different player who doesn’t suck. The we got our own episode of Dr. Drew, only to be capped by a story about the extremely rare occurace of the cop sandwhich.

And its not over yet...

 

[Coolade2]

Good move. Seriously think JG smart guy who made some mistakes and got screwed by NFL policy.

OK .. now reboot. How does smart player not embrace this opportunity. ?

Um first thing switch off talk radio like hot mouth felgie performing orally on his microphone..

^^^^huh.... First comment from belichick calls JG "smart kid"...

(Coolade nailed it again.)

THIS.

For FF, I'd list the Pats pass catchers in this order of scoring:

Gronk
Edelman
White
Gordon/Hogan
Dorsett
Patterson (higher if your league rewards points for return yardage)
Hollister

In a 12 teamer, I'd not even start Gordon unless I were desperate. Hell, right now I like free agents like Antonio Callaway/Tyler Boyd better...

Gordon might be HUGE...but if he is to break out...it will take 3 games, IMO. One to get his feet wet...second one to do more...and the third one playing in the offense with Edelman.

IMO, we will know his value when we compare his snap count with Hogan's following Edelman's return.
