    Whoa, that's a bit out of nowhere. Wonder what the Browns do with him? 1 day after the NFL trade deadline.

    The timing seems to be a bit coincidentally douchey of Goodell towards both Gordon and the Browns, no?

    I've owned him nearly every year and been hurt by suspensions, and I held on to him in my Dynasty league forever--and yet, he was scooped up before I had a chance today.
    He better not be awesome. I'll be pissed. Although, hopefully he's got his life figured out.

    He won't be. He hasn't play in 2.5 years. And the Browns have the worst QB situation in the league.

    This is great for next year. Dude is still super young. Name to keep on the radar, but he’s unlikely to do anything (or really even play) this year.

    For keeper leagues yep. I just didn't understand why both my leagues had a mad dash to grab him today and then the owners that got him were gloating about it lol

    I pretty much got him because I don't want to be burned by him. And there's a higher chance I'll be burned by him than OJ Howard.

    Buuttttt look at this schedule for his reinstatement:
    Subject to compliance with clinical and other requirements, he will be placed on the commissioner's exempt list and be permitted to practice with the team beginning Nov. 20.

    Beginning Nov. 27, Gordon will be eligible -- at the team's discretion -- to return to active status or to remain on the commissioner's exempt list for an additional week before returning to active status.
    SOOOO looking at his schedule, and the Browns schedule he can at best play in:
    Week 13 Dec 3 @ Chargers (could miss this game if they don't think he's ready)
    Week 14 Dec 10 vs Packers
    Week 15 Dec 17 vs Ravens
    Week 16 Dec 24 @ Bears
    Week 17 Dec 31 @ Steelers

    And in my league regular season's last game is week 13. Do I really want to roll Flash Gordon out there for playoffs week 1?

    However, Josh Gordon's QB situation doesn't matter when it comes to talent, he's not out of shape (guy is a gym junkie), and from what I've heard the guy is actually pretty smart so picking up a playbook won't be too hard. The biggest thing is, for me, I hope we know what he's going to be like for that game week 13.

    For me as a fan of the sport, I'm happy he's back. Guy is just so fun to watch, it's like another Julio Jones out there.

    The more I think about this, the more surprised I'll be if we see Gordon at all this season.

    The Browns have made no bones previously that they're done with this guy and his antics. Why put him out there of that's the case?

    Why risk injury (and who knows if there would be any financial implications on the Browns if that happened)?
    Why risk running him with a really subpar QB, an o-line missing it's best player and left tackle, and little hope of making a real big splash in the handful of games he gets in?
    In other words, why even risk taking the bloom off the rose and damaging whatever trade value this guy still has?

    Other teams know what Gordon is (or was) capable of on the field. They saw him play and rip up the league as a 22 or 23 year old. Why not let them stew AND bid on that?

    Playing him really seems to have no upside for the Browns.

    The BEST case scenario would appear to be that Gordon tears it up, wins the Browns a few games, thus worsening the team's draft position next year for no reason, gives fan morale and hope for the future a boost, amd is then traded in the offseason further alienating an already tortured fan base.

    I don't know. Just some random thoughts that have me wondering if we'll even see (or WHY we'd even see) Gordon on the field this year.

    His last yr in the NFL was however not the best….
    60.6yards/game
    4.8recpt/game
    12.6yrds/recpt (he had 18.9yrds/recpt the yr before)
    0TDS
    Longest reception was 32yrds that yr.

    Maybe he was drunk/not with it tho. I can't remember how much he was really into it that yr.

    Grabbed him and Megatron as bench stashes in various dynasty leagues for next season. No risk really.

    Megatron is a stretch lol. But I got Flash Gordon is 3/4 football leagues. It's at that time of the yr where all the "surprises" are gone now, and having a guy like Samuel (Carolina) over Gordon won't win you the league.

    Gordon ran a 4.3s in a 40yrd dash this week. His pro-day time was 4.52s. Guys gotten faster. Or he's finally sober doing it.

    Eligible to be back on Monday (Nov27), can practice with the FULL team today. Nothing but praise from the coach recently, terrible record. Corey Coleman coming back to help relieve some pressure, I'm getting way too excited for the game vs the Chargers on Dec3rd.

    Yes you are. Lol.

    Dunno why you'd rest your playoff hopes on someone who hasn't played a football game in 2 years,
