Josh Gordon Thread: Reinstatement (Deja Vu)

[dynastyninja]

I feel like he could go to Detroit and compete for the WR1 job, but that's more of an indictment on their receiver corps than an endorsement of JG. As has been the case for about five years, he's probably not going to put up relevant points for fantasy lineups.

I picked him up for free…with the hopes I can flip him for a future first. Ha

Rooting for the guy. Is he still with the Hawks or is he a FA? Sleeper has him listed on the hawks, but NFL.com has him listed as a ufa

He still lives in Seattle, but is a FA. I've no idea if Seattle is thinking of adding him or not though?

A first? Seems light

Guy was first overall in startups only what, 8 years ago? WR's have longevity. I agree, a first seems light.

Still in his 20’s. Wonder how many more times he can get suspended before he retires?

Apologies but he actually 30 now.

Apart from that I was curious to see how he's done when he has played. So here are his total stats from 2017 onward

28 Games
160 Targets
86 Receptions
1498 Yards
6 TDs

On a per game basis that becomes

5.7 targets / game
3 receptions / game
53.5 yards / game
0.21 TD / game

I suppose that is about a 8-9 ppg floor going on those averages

Note: this excludes all stats from before 2 year 2015-16 absence

There was only one possible landing spot he could go that would make people half-interested again.

And he just landed there.

I can't believe we're riding this train again. What is dead may never die.

A first? Seems light

Going to take at least 2 1sts now
