Gordon to IR

[RobertWeathers]

Do we have any actual evidence that Gordon will be released/waived other than some reporter's hawt take speculation?

Not to my knowledge but multiple, fairly credible reporters such as Reiss are saying he will be released after the trade deadline.

Is there a feature on this site to filter out any post with the word Antonio Brown / AB in it?



He is not coming back!!!
EVER EVER EVER!!!
Get over it!

Week 9, AB is back

and Gronk week 12

 

[mosslost]

Are we getting another player still?

I mean besides the obvious Gronk and Brown who are coming back

 

[GorBelSer]

Randy Moss, obviously.

2019 NFL Trade Deadline: Four players the Patriots should target in deal after acquiring Mohamed Sanu

Should Pats still go out and someone? Like Howard at TE?

YES

We are getting absolutely nothing out of the TE position

YES

Howard or Hooper even if it costs a first or more please.
I'd take a late round flier on Adam Sheehan.
But would love a motivated Howard.
Or a star on the rise in Hooper.

We’ve already inquired about getting Howard and the Bucs told us no. I think that ship sailed once we gave up a 2nd for Sanu.

Howard

30 games

1173 yds
11 TD

Hooper FA next year

1983 yds
14 TD

Are you giving up more than a 1st for less than 40 yds a game?

I would not give more than a 3rd ....

A first is too much- especially with Hooper being a rental.

At least with Howard we'd have him this year and next year on the cheap and the 2021 5th year option (if he becomes dominant ). A first for him still seems like too much for what he's accomplished.

Falcons said no on Sanu as well.

The hope it's a negotiating ploy and they are looking to field more offers

That’s true, they could always change their mind close to the deadline. Belichick would really be going all out if he landed Howard...drool.

Howard makes way too much sense.

Not a PFF guy but this write-up is encouraging.

PFF grades O.J. Howard as second-best tight end in ‘18

It's Belichick.

No question.

This one is for you @SammyBlueCat . Hope you are doing ok.

Reiss reported that NE put Gordon on IR with a “minor injury designation” which means that NE must release him when healthy (or when an injury settlement is agreed on, whichever is first).

Kyed said it best in his article yesterday.

"The Patriots are weird"

Does that minor injury designation preclude retaining him or must he be released?

Reiss says it means he must be released.
