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

[PatsFan2]

Lets be honest. Gordon is a basket case. This isn't a situation where the player is solid but disgruntled (Moss, Dillon) or an off the field wacko (Talib).

Josh is messed up and King is not necessarily wrong.

No disrespect but I stopped reading right there never been a fan of King or the carp he writes he's a Media state the obvious whore. King should tell us something we don't know.

Time to break the TD record again

If we could add another piece on defense now. Maybe down the line during the trading deadline.

 

[Deus Irae]

Done deal!

 

[Betterthanmost]

Some guys are just meant to be Patriots. This guy I have always felt was going to be one day a Patriots. We will clean him up, sober him up, set Brady's guru on him 24x7. He is going to eat clean, his first three weeks here will be like marines boot camp.

He's 27. He was spared the wear and tear of those years. He's in great shape (maybe not football shape but on Hard Knocks he was ripped).

If he comes to the Patriots I'm predicting he will be the best receiver we've had since Moss. The risk is the drug thing. The risk is not that he's suddenly fallen off 'the cliff'.

Any reports on what drug(s) he struggles with? Is it just weed?

It's official.

Whoooooo hoooooo

5th rounder!

 

[RobertWeathers]

This reaffirms one thing.

Bill Belichick doesn't give a crap what you did somewhere else.

What he does care about is what you do in the locker room, meeting room, weight room and on the field for the Patriots.

Let's ****ing go. Now give Coleman #19, Brady gets his college #10, and Gordon is the new 12.

 

[Ross12]

Wtf. That's such a low cost. So it's only for a fifth, and if Gordon is active for 10 of the next 14 games, they get a late round pick back. So if it works out it barely cost anything, and if it doesn't work out, it basically cost nothing.

 

[PaulNEPats]

LOVE THE DEAL!

 

[A Defiant Goose]

Hopefully a fresh start is what this guy needed. I'm just as much rooting for him to succeed on a personal level as I am as a Pats fan. Only he can decide what his future will be like though...

Can't wait to see how he is come playoff time.

If he fails here and gets in trouble his career is over. If anything he should be motivated to get one last big contract.

Conditional 5th round pick a-hahahahahahahhaha

Totally worth it IMO.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

I’m tempted to only play him 9 games this season. He needs to get the playbook down people!

King sucks.

My point is Josh is nuts.

Maybe he can take a break from his problems for 5 months here.
