Josh Gordon Thread: Reinstatement (Deja Vu)
Re: Josh Gordon
He could have been a hero if he made that 2nd TD grab, and after a few weeks I think it's fair to say way too many people have been killing Weeden. Dude isn't going to be Drew Brees, but he's really accurate and majority of his deep balls are right on the button. I don't think he's an up and coming star but I certainly don't think it's fair to say he'll hold any of the skill position players back there.

Re: Josh Gordon
To be fair they said it was because he was moving from the shadows to the sun. If you have played baseball, you would know it is really hard to track a ball when moving from shadows to sun. It is the same effect of walking out of a darker room to outside where the sun is shining bright. (to a lesser degree) It is hard to see at first.WZA wrote:Yeah, the game announcers blamed it on the sun.thriftyrocker wrote:Almost had a 2nd td but dropped it.
With all that said, it still hit him in the hands. Most likely cost the game.

The light definitely comes into play right as the ball is getting there.

Re: Josh Gordon
Gordon continues to impress me. The first td was a highlight reel body contortion with control and then on the drop he got behind the defense once again. This kid has future star written all over him at this point. I am always glad to hear from those who see things differently.

Re: Josh Gordon
I may start him with AJG on a bye, which means his TD streak is most certainly over. Sorry guys.

Josh Gordon
What are you thoughts on this young buck? Looks like he's locking in, if he hasnt already as the future #1 for the Browns. I'm pretty happy with his progress this year and at times he makes things look so smooth.
Re: Josh Gordon
The thing I'm looking for is more volume, more diverse routes, etc. This last game, not the game where he caught 2 bombs, was the most encouraging for me.

Re: Josh Gordon
Very encouraging that he looks this good with so much time after football. I traded a future 1st for him in numerous leagues when people were saying he was just all hype but I bought into the upside, along with what I was seeing in the upcoming class and I couldn't be happier. A full off-season should do him good, though a sophmore slump certainly isn't out of the question he looks like he's starting to round himself into a player.

Re: Josh Gordon
Brandon Weeden said rookie WR Josh Gordon has "made strides throughout this year that I've never seen in any sport a player make so fast."
Gordon has gone from raw supplemental draft pick to No. 1 wideout. Over the last three weeks, he's shown more signs of being a complete receiver while averaging 5.0 catches for 76.3 yards and scoring one touchdown. "He's been kinda tapping on the window waiting to break out," Weeden said. "I've got so much confidence in the guy."
Arrow is pointing up.... I think I may start him this week ahead of Maclin and Stevie Johnson as my #3 wr behind Julio and Cobb.

Re: Josh Gordon
love what I am hearing, I picked up the Kid (for $1) in both of my dynasty's after seeing a couple little samples of game tape and one back yard throwing session on youtube, saw how smooth he was out of his break and liked his size/speed combination...now he is really working to become a professional...this off season will be HUGE if he works at his route tree...

Re: Josh Gordon
It's easy to forget that he did not play for over a year prior to entering the league and he is only 21 years old. I remember there were rumors of his forty time being in the 4.3s at Baylor although he ran a 4.52 at his pro day. He seems to play faster than 4.52. In any case, he has been getting behind secondaries all season. With TRich in the Browns' backfield, defenses will have to respect the run for years to come. If Gordon can develop his route running, I believe his potential is very high.

Re: Josh Gordon
I like his talent and speed, his reception total is very low however if you play in PPR leagues. I also worry that he may be boom or bust sometimes, scoring huge totals one week and very little the next

Re: Josh Gordon
I like Josh Gordon a lot. He has a lot of the physical skills and has progressed as a WR who only ran the 9 route to starting and running better more complex routes. He is arguably the best WR on the Browns right now. However, the Browns are not a good offense so that limits his upside. Also, he is not the WR Julio Jones and A.J. Green are so you should not expect a huge leap next year and might regress. At worst I see him as a talent on the level of Mike Williams (~WR 35-40) but at best if he continues to develop could be ~10 WR like Demaryius Thomas.

Re: Josh Gordon
I should stay out of this one. On the last Josh Gordon thread I got blasted for saying he has WR1 upside. Which I still believe.
Re: Josh Gordon
Since Week 5, he is WR20 in PPG in my standard PPR league. This is as a 21 year old, having not played football in a year, jumping right to the NFL, and with a rookie QB. I DEFINITELY believe that he has WR1 upside.WZA wrote:I should stay out of this one. On the last Josh Gordon thread I got blasted for saying he has WR1 upside. Which I still believe.
