I would have taken a chance on him if he had the talent to warrant it but i think he’s probably washed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I'd still take a shot. Maybe with a change of scenery he could keep his head on straight for half a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon used to have all the attributes you mention- key words used to. Some receivers have put up big numbers in NE- Moss, Edelman, etc...I think they expect an uptick in production with Sanu. Go watch that Steelers against Ne game again and watch the Gordon catch and then let me know if he can’t high point footballs. And how many years ago was Moss?

Everyone also needs to remind themselves that he was effectively cut mid-season by a smart, well-run organization with a real need at the WR position. That happened for a reason.

Just for fun? well sanu is probably the better wr right now so they see it as an upgrade and they're going for a title. plus they give up a second which will be like the 60th pick and they get a comp pick back for sanu that's probably like the 68th pick. so they lose very little in their mind and better shot at a title.

MrEpsYtown Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 If Gordon makes it to us on waivers it makes sense to take a shot. Perhaps a locker room as strong as ours is what he needs. Bring him in, see if it works, if it doesn't, cut bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many years ago was Moss? This year- 20 receptions in 6 games. Sure he may make a play here and there but will he do it consistently. IMO he just isn’t worth the risk. NE in past years has had receivers and TE’s put up big numbers. Lets see what happens in the second half of the season with NE’s passing attack and where, if any place Gordon lands. It will be interesting for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4merper4mer Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I have no opinion on Gordon but am curious to know how long it would take a player to clear waivers with 31 teams. A few days? In other words, when would he be officially a free agent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
