Josh Gordon (2012 NFL Supplemental Draft)

[CRA]

people aren't going to be giving up an early pick for a kid with this much baggage...esp. a supplemental. very reasonable to think he could be had for a 6th or 7th rounder in the supplemental draft.

Talent driven league. Always a team willing to gamble on talent. I think he goes for a 4th easily

Bc if you take the off field issues away...

He projects to be better than a Gettis coming out.

But you can't take away all the off the field issues, that would be part of the package.

yep the guy is 6'3 220 pounds and runs a 4.3. plus he produced when he was on the field, somebody will ****** him up in the 4th or sooner.

Teams want talent. If the leadership and structure is in place.....talent is worth the risk. Too many examples of that IMO.

i just don't see it in a supplemental, but i'm JAG sooo....

We will see, all a team needs is 1 extra pick in the 3rd or 4th and they will pull the trigger.

JAGs means you are a solid poster....you just aren't a TRD or Zod type of current legend

can some one explain to me why a supplemental draft exists? and why these guys are just not UDFA's?

[pOpCoRnPoPpEr]

He's going to the Redskins btw

don't believe so. Washington drafted 3 receivers last season and signed two this past year. Thats a lot of investment at WR just to draft another one. I think its a smokescreen to drive up the cost. Dallas wants Gordon badly so if they think Washington is in the hunt they may just pull the trigger with a 2nd or 3rd rounder. JMO

chose to enter the draft/league too late.

usually it's because they were going to run into trouble transferring to another program or they got cut from the program they were in.

supplemental draft is to take advantage of these guys in their situations, but make it fair to do so for all teams.

btw...no pie option in poll = poll fail.

Ah sh*t, what was I thinking lol.

[pOpCoRnPoPpEr]

I also agree that the Redskins will take a chance on Gordon which certainly worries me.

I have high hopes for Griffin III and they are certainly surrounding him with talent (Tim Hightower, Roy Helu, Evan Royster, Fred Davis, Chris Cooley, Pierre Garcon, Leonard Hankerson, Josh Morgan, Santana Moss, Niles Paul, and potentially Josh Gordon) that is a formidable offense right there.

I would like to have him but i just don't see a spot for him on the team. I believe Cooley will get his walking papers soon. If they feel Moss is nolonger in the picture i could see Washington making a play but from all indications Moss has been stellar in camp.

If he lasts to the fifth, take him. We're already out a third again next draft, we need those second and fourth rounders. Second round is far too high a risk for someone with that extensive of a history anyways.

You don't know where he will go before you put in your pick.

It does not move through the rounds like a normal draft.

Every team interested in him puts in the pick that they would be willing to give. After all picks are submitted, the highest pick gets him.

this is correct. it's like a silent auction.

where do the picks come from?each team gets picks for this draft or do they give up a pick in the real NFL draft the following year?
