Still glad I sold for a first in August. We are halfway through the fantasy year and he's still hardly startable.

In a SF I would have snap accepted that offer. Carr alone would have been worth it, IMO, despite his struggles.

I just couldn't, this SF league is strange, they don't value QB's highly, that's why he was being offered. its a 10 team if that matters

We still have Eli hanging in the FA.

And Cooper, idk what's up with him, that's Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde right there!

At least I know JG can ball, just needs to stay out of trouble, seems like hes doing a good job with, no one has heard a peep out of this guy since joining that Pats!

Then stack up your roster with QB's, and hoard them. Do you really think the Patriots just wave a wand and change Gordon as a person in a few weeks? IDK, Cooper and Carr for Gordon in a 10 team SF is such a good deal.

Id rather not hoard QB's they take up valuable roster space, especially one who is at best a QB2.

As for the magic wand, This is the first time in JG life where on an organization that actually wants to win, and the culture is life changing, It made Randy Moss pipe down. As I said above, I'm a JG believer and unless its a gross overpay like a high end 1st, id rather hold. I got him for free 2 years ago.

He arguably their most gifted athlete on the roster, I'm not saying hes their next Randy Moss, but I'm willing to see!

I have no problems with this stance. When an owner believes in a player, and is not sold on the assets coming back, regardless what consensus says, that is their prerogative. At worst it turns into a learning experience about when to avoid letting yourself harm your own team - but as much as I still like Cooper - I cannot disagree with his comments, especially when the initial cost was mentioned. The only concern for me is how long Gordon will stay with the Patriots. If the Patriots culture is exactly what the doctor ordered for Gordon then hopefully it is the next few years.
Please speak to clarion contrarion before considering the use of vetos..

What do we think of Gordon at Pats sofar? I don't get much of a chance to watch Patriot games so can only go off boxscore which I don't like doing, I have seen his snap count has been rising every week.

Think hes going to do just fine there. TB spreads it around so the points wont be massive but he should be steady. I'm hoping for a TD this week as hes in my lineup

Last week I got my first ever Gordon share, traded away Shady for him. Trying to decide if I should keep him as my WR3/4 or try to flip him before he hits the bong again...

I think hes safe in regards to suspensions as long as he is in NE. Just a gut feeling. Maybe he slips in the offseason, but rest of season he should be fine
