NoSaint Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 4 minutes ago, SirAndrew said: Good points, I just don’t know if Gordon’s current production levels are worthy of dealing with his baggage and potential for future transgressions. If Beane is stressed enough about the position to bring in a guy like Gordon, he should have considered drafting a WR earlier. Make a deal for AJ Green, or Keenan Allen, then I’ll be interested. Yeah, as usual somethings fishy in Foxboro. I agree something seems off, and I’d love to shoot higher (been banging that drum all year).... but assuming nothing crazy comes out I’d rather see him than senorise perry on our offensive depth chart, in the simplest terms. He isn’t my absolute top choice but I think we are better with that move than no move at all, unless dirt comes out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bring in a guy like that, you just look at him as quality depth. We are lacking at that position. I take issue with anyone who thinks Gordon is a number one, or can produce like an elite talent. Otherwise, anything is an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eanyills Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 1 hour ago, SirAndrew said: I doubt he knows the playbook. Gordon isn’t a Leodis. If you find an interview, he’s fairly articulate and intelligent sounding. In two years in NE, I’m sure he’s got that playbook down solid. From what I’ve seen, he’s also been a good blocker in NE.

CEN-CAL17 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 27 minutes ago, apuszczalowski said: I would be leary of a move like this. The Pats don't just dump talented players for nothing while using resources to grab someone else. They didn't have to put him on IR if there was going to be a worry that he could come back and they would have to chose him or someone else. I would think theres a chance he is facing some discipline or isn't what he used to be... The Pats dump talent all the time. Belichick is weird when it comes to personnel. Meyers is an up and comer, Sanu is healthier and has the edge on Gordon, Harry coming back. Gordon is just the odd man out... don’t believe everything you read, Demarius Thomas looked decent for the Jets, but leaving Nee England he was a “health concern”, Ramsey didn’t play for Jax for 2 games due to a “back” issue. Gets to LA and is fine. Im sure Gordon is banged up, but Belichick is like “Whatever, we got Meyers, and Harry stepping up, I’ll go get a Sanu and you just relax Gordon, you take care of yourself”, and Belichick could care less and moves on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overload Josh's choices for where to go with the ball. I know I'm crazy but I just would love an offense with Brown, Green, Gordon and Beasley. Sadly, I don't really see us getting either of them.

The Honorable thing for an organization to do would be to cut him before the deadline and allow him to choose where he wants to play. Since we're dealing with NE however I expect he'll end up with the Dolphins or Skins and spiral out of the game from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 This is likely part of Belicheck's master plan. "Hey coach...Bills are close to trading for AJ Green, Diggs, Mike Evans, or K Allen". "What can we do?". "Start a rumor that we are going to release Josh Gordon". "Reports are that the Bills are no longer interested in trading for a WR".

A phone call about a position of need is called due diligence. If Beane didn’t call about AB and get the facts, we would all be upset. 2 hours ago, SlimShady'sGhost said: Do we??? Does McD and Beane? Does he fit in the process? The guys biggest knock is he can’t put down the left handed cigarettes. The way things are going I expect the new CBA to remove marijuana from the drugs tested.

Bills!Win! Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) The bills are the same team to have attempted a trade for Antonio brown, successfully traded for kelvin benjamin and signed Richie incognito - players who don’t come across as character players. I think they finally understand that their core has enough strong leadership and character to cure a cancer in the locker room if brought in. Edited October 24, 2019 by Bills!Win!
