Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
i scooped him up everywhere earlier this season. not expecting anything out of him this season. not expecting anything really until he suits up week 1 next season, if he makes it that far.

Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
Just disappointed they won't let him back week 12 so he can accrue a year toward free agency...but I suppose the AJ Mccarron trade flub means they are at least trying to look at other options at QB so he stands a chance still in Cleveland. Plus he's Flash f*cking Gordon, Fantasy Savior.

Value this how you will but....
Via Sashi Brown: "We've been informed of the league's decision to reinstate Josh. The personal well-being of all our players is of the utmost importance to us. We respect and commend Josh for taking the steps necessary to have the opportunity to return to the league. Josh will be in our building in the coming days and we look forward to having him back and sitting with him to discuss his future on our team."

This could be a very good thing in being that Josh Gordon will be on a much better team next year or that he has no value to any NFL Teams and they couldn't garner a deal knowing that he was coming back. Perhaps, they know that he is their best Receiver and need to actually keep him, which I highly doubt.

I just took it as a canned response because a statement was expected from the team.CK_ wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2017 7:59 am Value this how you will but....

As long as he doesn't use social media to trash Kenny Britt I think he'll be okay. Leave the trashing of Britt to everyone else...
Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
He's probably someone that if he's already on my team, I'll never sell, but if he's not, I'll never buy. I have had zero clue how to value him over the last few years, and still don't today. I'm just hoping that the dude has worked out his issues.

Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
I would sell him the week before he plays...when his value would be highest. Once he actually starts playing, his value will drop when people start realizing he hasn’t played football in quite some time, and he is playing in a very poor offense.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
I sold before the draft last summer, packaging him with Tread and K. White for Crabtree. It worked for me, but I still really hope he has turned his life around.
I think that right before he plays this year is one opportunity to sell him, but if I had held this long I'd hold him to see what happens. I don't think you're going to net a great return for him until he shows something on the field, and that might not be until next year...

Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
Yep... Had enough roster depth at the position to hide him... Took ribbings at every draft for not dropping him to draft a rookie...
I traded Steve Smith and Julian Edelman for him after his break out because the other owner didn't want to risk the suspension... At the time Edelman was more of a PR/KR (which we don't use) and Smith was 89 years old... I want Edelman back now lol

Re: Josh Gordon Reinstatement
I own Gordon and I was thinking of offering him straight across for Dede Westbrook. Is that a good idea?
