Josh Gordon arrested again.....

Wow, yeah I gave him the benefit of the doubt but I don't know if he'll be able to keep it together to sustain a career in the NFL. I hope he can somehow turn things around for himself though, it's a shame to see the talent that he has go to waste. Same type of situation as Justin Blackmon unfortunately.

Who wouldn't be wasted half the time if they lived in Cleveland though.

No chance J.R,R.R,or D.G would bring him in even for minimum. Organization loathes bad press and would not be put in that position.Unless by some miracle he should ever clean up his act ,he may never see another snap in the NFL.

I prefer this one: 

 

 

And Gordon still has superstar talent, so if you can get him for a minimum amount where he knows there's no way he's ever going to earn more again unless he can stay out of trouble, you may get at least one or two good years out of him before he is able to earn more money and starts acting foolish again.

 

Low risk, high reward potential.

    • It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.
    • I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt. 
    • That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
