Remember when Josh Gordon was available and a lot of people on here didn't want him

Yeah that happened.

I wanted us to get this done and institute the Dez rules with him.

Oh well that ship has sailed.

It would help if you gave an update on what he has done recently. I doubt that everyone is keeping up with the Browns and Josh Gordon.

Most recent game: 14 for 237
Prior game: 5 for 125

Back to back 200 yard games. 1st time in NFL history.

His team still lost. He is not worth the 1st or 2nd Cleveland wanted. And he is still one strike away from a long suspension.

I was willing to give a 3rd. Could have been talked into a conditional 2nd. Perhaps some language in there about active games played.

*shrug*

Again good luck prying him loose now.

If im not mistaken Gordon had basically the exact same rookie season that TW is having. Gordon averaged 16.1 yrds per catch last yr. Guess what TW is averaging 16.1 yrds right now. Gordon had 5 tds all last yr TW has 5 tds already. gordon had 805 yrds TW has 531.

You guys cant even allow Tw to finish his rookie yr before wanting to replace him with Gordon? Jesus

I really like the rookie but Gordon would eat up that single coverage. Love the talent but Gordon is very close to being out of the league. I could see the Cowboys passing on him. I believe they did bid on him in the supplemental draft that year he was available.

I was campaigning for this like a mad man...

Well, Gordon is a lot more talented than Williams. There's not much doubt about that. But Gordon is also 1000x the knucklehead, too. One of the things a lot of us like about TW is that he's a quiet, very conscientious kid with a great work ethic and zero off-field baggage -- pretty much the opposite of Gordon.

Besides, Dez may be okay now, but he's been a handful in the past. One of those may be all a team wants to handle at one time.

You kidding? If he was in this draft he'd go top 5. Worth the 2nd they wanted, and I'd pay a 1st.

No way I am trading another first for a WR unless it's Calvin Johnson. If he was really available for a second or third I don't think he'd still be in Cleveland.

The Cowboys had a 3rd round entry for him in the draft, but the browns got him with a 2nd round entry.

I'll admit to eating crow on him. Putting off field stuff aside, I didn't even think he had this in him, skill wise. He's surely proven me wrong. What a beast
