Josh Gordon Thread: Reinstatement (Deja Vu)
Re: Josh Gordon
I just saw "Cleveland shopping Gordon - Looking for a 2nd round pick" scroll across the bottom of the tv screen on the NFL network. What are they thinking? I have to believe that someone will be picking up Gordon within the next couple days. Where does he end up???

I hope it's not true! I think his production will take a considerable hit. Gordon seems to have good chemistry with both Hoyer and Weeeden, and outside of Cameron there is virtually no competition for targets.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Browns and 49ers have "discussed" a Josh Gordon trade, but that a deal is "unlikely."
Per Schefter, a deal is unlikely because Mario Manningham (knee) and Michael Crabtree (Achilles) are getting closer to returning, but we seriously doubt that would stand in the way of a trade if the 49ers were serious about acquiring one of the game's best young receivers. Cleveland's asking price and Gordon's off-the-field issues are the likely stumbling blocks. According to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport, the Browns would like a second-round pick in return. Gordon's talent is worth a first-rounder, but that's not all that goes into the equation. If it were, the odds would be extremely low the Niners could find a player as good in the first round of next May's draft.

But I must say, with Hoyer going down and Kaep struggling because of his (lack of) weapons, this is a perfect fit.
Gordon is super talented, and is a big, fast, down-field WR that Kaep sorely needs. It gets Gordon into a better offense, with a better QB - and he'd still be able to see a ton of targets. I know some would worry about Crabtree's return, but by then I'd assume Kaep & Gordon would develop some chemistry of their own, and Crab is no guarantee of returning this year - or at 100%.

Re: Josh Gordon
Hard to believe that is true but you never know. If that's the case, teams are really overvaluing their draft picks. Even with the problems, he has to be worth a first to me.JFever wrote:I just saw "Cleveland shopping Gordon - Looking for a 2nd round pick" scroll across the bottom of the tv screen on the NFL network.

Re: Josh Gordon
Cleveland has to be asking for a first round pick. I simply cannot imagine there is not a team willing to give up a second for a first round talent and roll the dice with him.

Re: Josh Gordon
Especially when the Niner's have 2. Or will have 2 when KC wins 3 more. Hell, if I'm the Niner's I'd give a 1st. The only thing missing from this team is a WR. What if Manningham comes back and is garbage? Same with Crabtree. It might take longer to recover than they thought, and by that time the deadline is over and you're stuck with Marlon Moore and Kyle Williams to complement Boldin. The fantasy owner in me wants him to be a target hog in Cleveland, but the Niner's fan in me says make the frigging deal Baalke!
Re: Josh Gordon
For one I highly doubt he ends up there of all places. For 2, while I love the Cleveland fit there is no way I wouldn't be in love with him catching passes from Kaepernick and his cannon. That said, again we need to be careful what we wish for. The Niners are a running football team, and I know they can open it up but there is still a projection here. Projecting how the ball distribution goes between Vernon Davis, a healthy Crabtree, Gordon, and the running game is something nobody knows. I know what his production looks like in Cleveland and I couldn't be happier. I'm just going to hope he stays and Cleveland gets a half decent QB, my guess is he stays, they draft a QB, and let Hoyer play 2014 ahead of the 1st round QB.

Re: Josh Gordon
EXCELLENT week for Mr. Gordon. Very pleased with his output today. Plugged him in last minute for Alshon 22 minutes before kickoff. Yes!

Re: Josh Gordon
Gordon is a BALLER plain and simple. Has had 100 yard games with 3 different QBs, all who are average at best. Hes still a kid too which is scary to think about when you talk upside. Besides the off field stuff hes the epitome of a player you build around for dynasty football.
Re: Josh Gordon
I really think people forget this fact. To put it into perspective, he's a month older than Justin Hunter and a month YOUNGER than Cordarelle Patterson.hot nikkels wrote:Gordon is a BALLER plain and simple.

Re: Josh Gordon
I liked his attitude after the game. The record meant nothing because they lost the game. Maybe the kid is growing up a bit. Still prefer him over Blackmon and it was NEVER really close for me.

Re: Josh Gordon
Kid's a stud, plain and simple. I watched Gordon get traded for Dobson/Little in one of my leagues this week and it made me want to puke.

Re: Josh Gordon
Makes me feel vindicated now when I said he was going to put up WR1 numbers someday and our old friend The Oracle went on a tirade about how wrong (and of course how much of an idiot I was and everyone was) for saying that.
Somewhere Oracle is on a different dynasty forum talking about how awesome Josh Gordon is...

Re: Josh Gordon
I was not a believer for the longest time. Bought him this year and I am pretty happy with him next year as my WR3 behind Julio and AJ.
Worth the risk.

Re: Josh Gordon
Dang near had a deal done that involved me dealing Gordon for Andre Brown and a late 2014 1st. I have a wr stable of AJG,Julio,Cobb,Crabtree,Jeffery,K.Wright,J.Hunter,R.Cooper,M.Brown,S.Hill,B.Quick,D.Rogers - along with Gordon - so I have the depth at wr and a need at rb for a playoff push... The other owner declined and countered with an Early 2nd along with Brown. I thought - hmmm - no way. I declined and re-offered the original and it sat there for a couple days. I revoked the trade prior to the kickoff of the game today then Gordon puts up 43.7 points. Nice.
