Good landing spot for Gordon. They have a good QB, team, and organization to help him on and off the field. Fortunately he didn't land with some crappy organization after the Pats kinda screwed him.

Why did the raiders pass on this guy?! Makes no sense. We are contending and have not good receivers after Williams.... even just the compensatory pick...

Stupid, after taking a chance on ab, why pass on Gordon. Ugh,

Best of luck with the hawks Gordon.

Let's be realistic on the Compensatory pick. I don't think teams are going to be handing Josh Gordon over $10 million per in free agency.

We are likely talking at best a 5th to 7th round potential comp pick, depending on what your team does in the off season in terms of free agency. Could very well cancel out the comp pick for Gordon.

Nice landing spot for Gordon. The guys after Lockett and Metcalf are Moore, Brown, and Turner. Likely it's Turner who ends up on losing his spot.

I think right now Brown is the guy on the hot seat.

Am surprised so many teams passed on Gordon, but there is no downside at all for Seattle to give him a go for 1M. Really like the add.

Its still a free draft pick, plus you get a flyer on a once dynamic player.

How did the Pats screw him? They basically resurrected his career. They paid for his rehab and bent over backwards for the guy to help him get his life together on and off the football field

Is it the way N.E. let him go? Having to go through waivers thus N.E. hoping a non playoff teams takes him thus no chance of having to face him? Versus outright cutting him making him a free agent to choose him own landing spot?

Yes, that was definitely the reason they held onto him the extra week. But I would hardly call that screwing the guy. They bent over backwards to try to accommodate him.
