O no a prorated 1.5M 4 minutes ago, PetermansRedemption said: Why is everyone so sure he won’t make it down the waiver wire? I would actually be surprised if ANY team claimed him. Has shown inability to stay on the field, wasn’t super productive in New England playing with the best QB in history and obviously did something to piss of the Pats. If Belichick thought he was rehabilitated and could play he would have waited the extra week and not IR’ed/released him. There’s a reason he isn’t a Patriot anymore and it isn’t because he’s healthy, productive, and stayed out of trouble. yeah because he was hurt and they overpaid for Sanu. So yep he is gone. That is what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagon127 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I feel he would most like to come here, to beat the team that prematurely put him on IR. Not that he has a choice, but if the Bills pick him up, he is playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one deep threat in the whole offense. Just roll a safety over top of John Brown and we don't have a single guy who can get open 20 yards or more downfield or catch contested passes. Gordon would give us a verticle threat that Beasley, Jones, McKenzie, Roberts, etc haven't been able to provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pro-Foster faction here just threw their laptops but we also have a QB who hasn't completed a deep ball all season and it's nearly November so I'm not sure how much a deep threat matters when you can't complete passes to them. We've had open guys, they were all missed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Gordon isnt a deep ball one-trick pony. Get him the ball on those 10-15 yard In routes that Brown has been running, and let the big boy YAC it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man you would have hated the 90 Bills and their off field issues. fact remains it would improve the team would be the best WR on this roster the minute he walked in the room. It doesn’t handcuff the Bills later falling right in line with the McClappy not wanting to hurt the future for today. And we have the Lockerroom to support a player like Gordon.

Your sarcasm aside, I think he will just be a distraction. If not, I don’t see any way the Pats don’t keep him for Brady. But if we get him, I’ll be very happy to be wrong and will root for him. Like I said, love his talent. And I have definitely been rooting for the Bills long enough to know the 90’s Bills. I didn’t hate them then and wouldn’t hate him now. He has just progressed so far in the league’s substance abuse program that he has no wiggle room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
