Not really
Except for the part where the Browns lose an extremely talented WR, of course.
puppet regimes installed throughout the league Detroit, KC for awhile Houston....its a joke.
They pretty much telegraphed that they would cut him if they couldn't work a deal. As usual, they hosed themselves.
Yeah, this is an absolute no-brainer for the Pats, who gives a crap about a 5th rounder? I can't believe CLE actually let him go for that even if there's a 10% chance it blows up in their face. They must think very little of Gordon.
You keep saying that and while he certainly has the potential to be a great one, after 6 years in CLE I can tell you that it's going to take some PFM to make him great again.
In this case I’ll side with the Browns. Just imagine the stuff they had to deal with from Gordon that you didn’t hear about over the last 5-6 years. He goes from doing whatever in Cleveland to arguable the strictest environment in football. Don’t be shocked if he’s cut before Halloween.
This is a good point. CLE said they preferred to trade outside the AFC. I think this confirms they could find no suitors....or no one offering better than a 5th rounder.
Please. Stop. You're not making my head hurt any less.. You know what? I need to go I can't read this anymore. Unbelievable that the Browns did this when other teams were ready to give as high as a 3rd or 4th.Yeah, this is an absolute no-brainer for the Pats, who gives a crap about a 5th rounder?

CLE waited 5 years for Gordon just to trade him to NE for a 5th.
Mayfield replaces Taylor by week 6. Hue fired by week 10 and replaced by the o coordinator, a known backstabber.
If it weren't the Browns I would say that that's just not possible, because if they were then that's what we'd be reading about.
The Jets were rumored (in NY so take with a grain of salt) to be inquiring and the thought was on the sports talk circuit that the Jets would go as high as a 4th for Gordon. If negotiations truly got heavy I could see the Jets blink, people are excited in NY for the Jets and the FO wants to get Darnold more weapons.
Maybe at first. But he's the kind of weapon who can be productive at all three levels. I'd bet that he'll be a primary target after the bye week.
Brady always has his favorites. Edelman, and Hogan are already in his wheelhouse. I very much doubt Josh Gordon takes over primary targets over those two. And Grunke is number one, regardless, so....
Oops. Yes. I’m multitasking - packing orders, eating lunch and being mystified at how Hue is employed.
I'll put it at 50/50. Imagine Gordon arrives in Foxboro and is greeted by BB, Brady and Randy Moss. Later, Randy takes him aside and explains that Bill doesn't care if you smoke, but if you test hot you're gone, so let me show you how to not test hot. Pretty basic stuff really.
Agreed. Unlike those guys Gordon is an elite physical talent.
I did say take with a grain of salt, but they were in on Gordon and one thing that was true; they were serious.So rumors and innuendo, got it
I agree. I suspect he wont play for a few games. Even then I suspect he wont get more than 4 targets a game once in the games, for a while. And then whether he ever gets more will be on whether he demonstrates that he deserves more in practice and games. And then the 1 strike sword of Damocles will always hang over him.
