They've done a good job of stocking the cupboard finally. Hue's doing good things, rational things. If Gordon shows up fit and clean in the middle of 2016 well good for all of them. (Not really expecting that though).
Pretty good description of Gordon's upcoming season. Based on the draft, the Brown's already know.
Sever all ties. - Soulfly.
Only because you have no other choice outside of cutting him. Even at fire sale prices I think one would have trouble finding a buyer outside of maybe a team in full rebuild mode who would give a What the heck! late round pick.
Let me get this straight; there is an unsubstantiated, but also unrefuted, report that Gordon is/was living with Manziel & you are ignoring that, but you are "more than certain they don't live together," although there is no support for that belief?
I finally jumped off the train two weeks ago. I sold for the 1.12 basically. That could end up being a sell low type deal, but I just wasn't encouraged by his decisions this offseason. Still wish him the best of luck, but dont want to deal with the headache.
Wait... so because ONE source CHANGED the story from "manziel is living w Von Miller" to "manziel is living Gordon", the story magically becomes fact?
How about this? Since there's already one report (that neither Gordon, Manziel, nor Rosenhaus has refuted) that they are/were living together, why don't you find ANY evidence that shows they aren't/weren't living together.
How can you even start to laugh at someone else's point as if it is rediculous when you have spent the better half of 2 yrs making a rediculous amount of rediculous statements on this board?
ok, so I need to prove that Gordon ISN'T living with someone?
Rich. Extremely rich.
Nice deflection, but the concern is Gordon hanging out with Johnny not living with him (reports of living together were debunked early and you don't hear much about that any more).
I do hope you're joking.
Not representative of discussions by sportswriters, football pundits and people in general on social media. You want to act like it is still a big deal, but it has been generally dismissed - and sure if you want to bring it up as a deflection you can get people to talk about it, but most everyone has moved on from that meme.
I'm not deflecting from anything.
It may be like Waiting For Godot.
Sure. or conversely, a decision could be made immediately.It may be like Waiting For Godot.
He can apply for reinstatement in August, but there is no guarantee the decision will be made in August. I have a feeling Goodell will take his sweet time on this and anything less than taking 60 days would be a surprise. And judging from their draft picks I don't think we will hear a peep out of the Browns if there is a delay.
I hope for his owners sake a decision is made in August, as it a roster spot which will remain in limbo until there is some resolution, as he can't be cut and there is no current trade market.
What was worse, when the panel all had to backtrack about lacking empathy for Tunsil, or when Goodell had to lay down that huge hug on a guy who just released to the world he can inhale about 3/4 of a gram in one hoot on draft night?
The last report we have of Manziel's living situation is that he was living with Gordon. If you have anything more recent, please share.

A few people on a message board that respond directly to a topic you initiate is not necessarily representative of the world outside of the Shark Pool forum. If you want to keep stirring the pot, and posting about Gordon living with Manziel, you will always get a response.
Well Soul I believe you are aware that I have been trying to be a reasonable voice in this thread while also being in the "Pro-Gordon" camp (translation: Soulfly Side).
I'd agree with this. He didn't look good at all in 2014 after the layoff and he played all of 2013. I'm sure Soulfly would interject about his 8-120 game in his first week back, but that was on 16 targets. Pure volume, his play was terrible, hence they threw to him less and less the rest of the year. He was completely out of sync on routes and with the QBs. His layoff will now be all of 2015 and all of 2016's off season. He is pretty useless for 2016 even if he gets reinstated at some point, which I don't think will happen.
He can review the playbook I believe, but not have contact with the team (not sure how that works). He worked as a car salesman last year, not sure what he's doing now.
I thought they changed those rules last season and players can now be at team facilities while suspended.
Agree, it would be a conditional pick. Assuming a 5th that adjusts to a 4th if everything works out.
Lazy reporting, especially on May 11th... This was talked about as the draft was happening.
If he is traded to NE, you would actually trade him? Jesus.
That was his point...his value would be high from the trade but he has no faith he would make it through another drug test.
