The Josh Gordon thread **merged**

[OmerV]

Sign him for this year with an option. At this point, with our WR corps, I roll the dice and try and make something happen; with skepticism. Don't trust the guy as far as I can throw him and bad news stories would surely be headed our way; but if we can get something out of him to win a game or two and have the option to release then why the hell not. We need receiver options in a season when our D is finally pointed in the right direction but at the same time, of course, our offense is showing no signs of being dominant, or mediocre for that matter.

He isn’t available to be signed or negotiate a contract with.

Need to bring him in

Lol - that was 18 years ago, and Underwood’s problem was never lack of talent, it was mental problems. Plus the team didn’t have to trade for him.

I am sorry, what exactly did Underwood do during his zero NFL games before we signed him to show he had NFL talent? About the same as Lynch, which is nothing. Both showed 1st round flashes in college. Both were drafted in the first round. Both played in zero games.

I was comparing Underwood to your Lynch comment and no talent signings. Again, neither showed they were worthy of their draft status so they are what they are (were).

jerry takes risks with talented players. That doesn’t apply to Lynch.

Lol... ouch... ooooooo burn.

 

[glimmerman]

Same here. He always pats himself on the back for his risk-taking. I don't know why you wouldn't given the incredibly low cost and risk involved. Everything to gain and nothing to lose. This team undeniably has question marks at both spots.

I'm not saying that either guy is the answer, only suggesting that they ask the question.

Reasonable questions.

Hey! 976-EVIL is on!

Now there’s a film that compares to cinema greats such as Surf ***** Must Die and The Duke of Knockers.

I'm not saying the Cowboys should throw the bank at Gordon, but they should try to sign him to a contract full of incentives with little risk to the team.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Reports say Cowboys FO inquired and learned that Gordon is talented. The Cowboys are no longer interested.

Zeke and Gordon seem like a bad combo. I think Gordon might cost a mid round pick. Gonna have to pass.

 

[ConstantReboot]

Just sign him. Add him to the misery that were in. Even if we sign him, I doubt the coaches will know what to do with him.

What? The "smoke me" and then "feed me" is not a good combo? I beg to differ!!

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Crazy that half the posters on here are saying "sign him" then adding whatever theyd like.

I sure hope the Eagles dont sign Demarcus Lawrence this week. Thatd be a big loss.

 

[lukin2006]

Do we really need another player with a history of off-field troubles? I will let the season play out and see if Dak can develop chemistry with the WR's ...

 

[flosho]

I'm now on the Gordon bandwagon. We could use him. We need someone that can stretch the field.

How is his route running otherwise?

He is going to be traded, he already has a contract

What? How could the Eagles sign Demarcus Lawrence?

It's not a matter of just signing him. He isn't a free agent.

I think that was the point he was trying to make - people saying we should sign Gordon before he's even a FA (i.e. we have to trade for him if we want him)

Correct.

Ahh - a little sarcasm. My mistake.
