Depends on the league. If 8/12 teams make the playoffs, I'd take him in the third. If 4/12, I wouldn't until the sixth.

After tonights game Gordon will get 16......Its obvious he is high right now.

Still could be second hand, looks like the whole Browns offense is stoned.

The show so far includes a lot of dropped balls. To be fair, the passes haven't been good either.

Please... there are people in the Gaza strip watching this game thinking "Man... I didn't think it was possible to bomb this hard".

This is the true the problem, even if given 8 games the Browns would need to employ a 24 hr service to stay with him and ensure he doesn't screw up.. ever!

Im taking him late in fake drafts before my $ leagues, not only because maybe he gets a light punishment but also because why not. Well why not might actually matter because that offense looks like a mess.

I took him late in my $$$ league but now I am wondering even if he plays how good will he actually be?

He's still out there deep into the 3rd quarter with the backups and Manziel. The Browns are NOT expecting this guy to be a part of their team this year.

I dunno, we all like to make major assumptions in this thread
That's why our foundation is so strong

Should I phrase it differently? You don't leave your star WR on the field in the 3rd quarter of the second preseason game with a bunch of backups if you're worried about him getting injured and screwing up your season.
They were clearly leaving him out there to help out Manziel, but you don't do that if you think he's playing this year.

Dude. A top-5 WR is on the field in the FOURTH QUARTER playing with a bunch of scrubs. The Browns know he isn't seeing the field this year or he'd be in street clothes right now.

Give another reason why Josh Gordon would be playing in the 4th quarter today. Just one.

If they "know" he isnt playing this season, why would they put him out there at all, instead of looking for diamonds in the rough on their roster/give other players playing time?Sorry, meant a plausible reason.

I agree it suggests the Browns think he's going to be facing a suspension.
But I don't think it requires a full season suspension to explain why they might want him out there.. Let's say they are hoping it's an 8 game suspension. Would it make sense if they got him as much work with the team as they can, in the new offensive scheme, prior to him being unable to practice for 8 weeks?
ConnSKINS26

It's possible, but you'd think the fear of losing him to an injury caused by a desperate scrub trying to make a name in the opposing secondary would outweigh a few dozen reps with backups.

He was obviously in there to help Manziel. My first post on the topic specifically says that.Gordon exits the game w Manziel...good luck with thatSorry, meant a plausible reason. Come on, man.ManzielGive another reason why Josh Gordon would be playing in the 4th quarter today. Just one.

Doesn't change the fact that they wouldn't even do that if he was expected to play this year.

So... it's completely normal for the 1st team to play 3 quarters next week, but absolutely unfathomable and indicative of a 16 game suspension that he does it this week?He was obviously in there to help Manziel.

Yes, basically. Don't go through mental gymnastics to justify it. Just realize that it's pretty much 100% unheard of.

You ddidn't find it odd how many plays he was off the field in the first half?
Seems like this was planned by the coaching staff. Probably played a normal compliment of snaps, or only slightly more

Gordon didn't have his shoes doubled knotted tonight. Tells me he is gone 16 games.
ConnSKINS26
Footballguy
Why would that be odd? You need the WR's who are actually going to play to get most of the starting snaps. Then you put Gordon out there to give Manziel a chance with the backups.

Alright dude.
We'll obv have to agree to disagree on this.
I just dont see how this means they KNOW he's gone 16 games
