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

[FCB02062]

Have you watched this offense the last 2 weeks?

They just lost Burkhead.

Gordon plays tomorrow and Edelman plays week 5, Chiefs are week 6

If they don’t the Pats are looking at 1-5 and going for the #1 pick in the draft, which Bill would probably draft a offensive lineman.

This team is not the Patriots of old, their not very good right now.

Fullback, after all he drafted a fullback with the NUMBER NINE pick in 1992

@Hpyed remember Hogan is a #3 circumstance makes him a #1. Dorsett a #4 circumstance makes him a #2. Both are playing two notches over their heads that's why our Offense struggles. Don't even get me started on Patterson the only thing that makes him a acting WR is his Number.

So far this season Dorsett > Hogan. Which I didn't expect to say.

I don't see Edelman coming in and suiting up after only 3 days with the team.

I am certain he has been working out and unlike an newcomer we can name, he knows the offense.

Plus he played all preseason so it's not likes hes been sitting on his couch for a year. He'll play Thursday, may just get less snaps than he normally would.

 

[Kontradiction]

There's no way he's inactive again unless his hamstring is still the concern. Doesn't sound like it though.

The current WR corps was pitiful vs Detroit. It'll only look worse vs Miami.

@Tunescribe @Joker This ****in’ guy.

Gordon’s hamstring injury was clearly pretty bad when the Patriots traded for him. The Patriots threatened to renege on the deal and the Browns made the 7th round pick non-conditional. I don’t think (a) the Patriots wanted to publicly threaten to back out of a deal which would hurt their reputation for future trades, or (b) the Browns would have caved like that if they weren’t sure the Patriots would win the battle, at which point they would probably need to cut Gordon because no one else would be interested.

If you look at the reporting, Adam Schefter stated that Gordon would be ready to play last Sunday, but that was before Gordon even reported to the Patriots. In other words, the Browns claimed that Gordon was healthy - with the hamstring injury being very minor - but the Patriots found out unexpectedly it was worse than advertised.

Hoping he’ll play on Sunday.

Kyrie/Thomas trade deja vu?

Kyrie/Thomas trade deja vu?

I hope not. That one didn’t turn out well for the team that kept the injured player.

Oh, whatsa matter? Trying already to forget the POUNDING your pack of green pukes will receive tomorrow? Go away.

Sorry Tuney. Been a big fan of Gordon for a while now. Been rostering him for years on fantasy too. I'm in on the Gordon discussions.

Btw, you must be hoping (more than usual) the Jets lose. Can't have them beat the two teams who the Pats lost to right?

January 12, 2019 - fifty years of feckless futility. Signin’ off, bang, bang, kiss, kiss.

Sorry Tuney.

Yes, you are. Very.

Yeah, that's really smart -- since he hardly has played in four years.

Btw, you must be hoping (more than usual) the Jets lose.

No, that hope never is "more" or "less."

I could not care less about such things. Your Jete are incredibly lucky they drew Detroit in that first game. BTW, Cleveland says hi. Say, what's the over/under on when McClown takes over at QB? I'd say by game seven.

 

[bbobbo]

Yea there is zippo.

Hes in the PPP (Patriots Protection Program)

If ************ became a WR here i'd be the same thing.

"We'll hes talented but we just need to wait to see how it goes..."

He runs a great crossing route.

you nailed it.

[TBR]

Schefter is tweeting his usual late night "scoops".

I wonder if he knows about Gordon's status.

 

[moejr]

Then we'll be 1 and 4 by your math. Hyped Hogan and Dorsett both stink in their current roles.

IMHO we need to be at least 3-3 after the Chiefs game

 

[supafly]

Hogan and Dorsett both stink in their current roles.

Cordarrelle Patterson is really fast, though, so there’s that.

Has he mentioned anything about it?

If he was an indian his name would be "DroppedOnHeadAtBirth"...

No question..we need Edelman. On the other habd, Edelman is still coning off a torn ACL and not 100% in football shape..a live game is a different than camp 7 on 7's.

Gordon would be gravy on the top, but hammies are a tricky thing.

We can be competitive without them for now, IMO.
