Or Trade for KB or sign Newhouse and Bodine or Bring back Zay and if he turns into a problem he is cut no harm. See how easy that is Which of them had multiple suspensions? You draw comparisons that have no basis in reality. And if he turns into a problem and you cut him who would be first in line blasting management for signing him? A guy named MAJBobby.

Unless they gave a high pick of guaranteed dollars, I don’t mind a short leash. I’d hope it a reasonable length though (realistic expectations and all).

And TT well we no cant throw inside the numbers Again all speculative He has been suspended more games than he has played in his career. There is nothing speculative there.

Gordon should be used to playing 5 games a season and having a full year or 2 off to get in shape on his own. Yet he managed to do fairly well in previous years considering he plays about a quarter of a full season. Again. You want to give money or waste a draft pick for a player who never plays? Sure...Whatever floats your boat, but thank god you're not running this team. Yep why not theh are giving over 50M to players that really never plays.

But I see what you're saying; there are about 50 famous musicians who fall into this category, and as it was for Hoffman, heroine is usually the vice that causes it. Clearly, PSH was much more accomplished.

Unless you think it’s within the first week or two... I have to ask... so what? would you be upset if they traded a 7 and got 8 games 600 yards and 5 touchdowns from him? The discussion isn’t for Gordon to be the long term answer. It’s whether he can help take a little pressure off allen for 3 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eanyills Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) I’m a huge Josh Gordon superfan, I have been since his breakout year in Clevo. He’s got elite talent and could have been a top-5 receiver in the league if he could have kept his head on straight. I watched Gordon last year with Kizer and last week with Tyrod. He should have had 3 TD’s last week (one called back on a penalty, one underthrown INT). He’s still got it. I could see the Browns throwing shade on him (with that “not himself” line) if the release is only for the injury/lateness. From a PR standpoint, it makes sense. They did the same thing with Coleman. I can’t imagine this situation is going to help Gordon’s mental health, though.The guy’s on the verge of falling off the tracks and receiving a lifetime ban. I wish him well, wherever he goes.It’s worth the risk for some team but that team isn’t Buffalo. Edited September 16, 2018 by eanyills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See last year in Buffalo That's with any job, if you're made the boss you bring in guys you trust (coaches) and you bring in employees you hand pick (players) to make the place run how you see fit correct? I don't think The coach or GM here got rid of players just because they were Whaley's players I think he got rid of them because they either didn't fit their scheme (Darby/the ILB that went to KC) or because of personality and overpayment (WR Woods, WR Watkins, DT Dareus), just my opinion though.
