The way we hear it, the Cowboys do not intend to offer Dez Bryant a second contract and interviewed the Texas-grown Gordon closely.

Why would they just let an asset walk? makes no sense

@JasonLaCanfora: Supp draft order - BUFFALO, CLEVE, TB, MIA, STL, MIN, WSH, JAX, IND, CAR are top 10 in each round@JasonLaCanfora Picks 11-20: PHI; SD, TEN, OAK, AZ, KC, SEA, CHI, NYJ, DAL

PFW is a hack site. Always just junk speculation with big time titles for the articles.

 

[Hoot&HoLLer]

Gordon is a Brown

@JasonLaCanfora Cleveland took Josh Gordon in the 2nd round

 

[Faust]

@JasonLaCanfora As noted before, only Buffalo picked before Cleveland in each round and Browns have spent a lot of time around Baylor program last few years

@TomPelissero Can't believe the NFL has yet to find a way to stretch the supplemental draft into a three-day event.

@LanceZierlein Spoke w/ Danny Arnold from PLEX who worked Gordon out over last 6 wks. He thinks Gordon still has work to do w/ body control running routes@caplannfl #Browns, from day one, never hid their interest on Gordon. Never backed off. They love size/speed ratio. Plays faster than 40-time.@ProFootballWkly Nawrocki on Josh Gordon: "Gordon is still raw as a route runner. ... he showed he could be a big-play, vertical receiver in 2010."@caplannfl #Browns had Gordon in for a visit last week. Only team he visited.@RobRang Aggressive move for a Cleveland Browns team needing help at receiver. I just question how ready Gordon is to contribute in 2012.

There is no way Gordon goes for even a 4th, never mind a 2nd or 3rd.

Like this move by the Browns.

Well, I presume CONNSkins knew going in that the Browns played in the NFL.

I'm here to eat my crow, I'm still shocked. I was completely wrong on this one, I either need to reevaluate him completely, or seriously question the Browns FO.

Good man. I'm not too shocked. Big upside at a position of need.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

anyone else get taken in the draft?

besides the Browns?

2nd round pick on an unproven player....spin this how you wish...just not smart.

 

[Texasmouth]

If the move works out it was a decent idea.

There is a good chance that the browns are picking in the top 5 again. That makes this pick a 2.01-2.05. That is a pretty high pick.

Every Rookie is a crap shoot but this one seemed to be an even bigger longshot.

The Browns have been so bad for so long, I really wanna root for them to turn it around for their fans, but the Weeden pick and now this have me seriously wondering. Hopefully it works out for them.

 

[Sabertooth]

Hopefully he overtakes Little quickly and becomes Weeden's new Blackmon.

Can you explain how many 2nd round picks are proven players? TIA

@ChrisWesseling #Browns "fully expect" Gordon to help as a rookie. NFL source tells @TonyGrossi he would've been top-10 pick in 2013:

 

[ConnSKINS26]

That's asinine. There's no way to know how he would have performed this season, nevermind the fact that he would have been playing at a junior college or whatever.
