Hunter2_1 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Well, usually I dislike bringing in "character issue" guys / divas or whatever - but screw it, we need the weapons and BB can usually whip them into shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBLIII Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Needed. Lets hope this guy behaves and performs. With Edelman also coming back the passing attack down field could look different in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apparition Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 The Pats have never brought in a guy with Gordon's history of substance abuse issues. This is going to really test the limits of the Belichick method if it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asciimo Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 THANK YOU SWEET JESUS. Gordon - Edelman - Hogan - Dorsett - Patterson From the current bottom 5 receiving corps in the NFL to top 10. Sprinkle in some GRONK and James White, and there's an offense. EDIT: What are the chances he's cut mid-season and never sees the field because he can't learn our complicated scheme?

If he's cut, I doubt that'll be the reason. I assume the Pats will give him a very basic route tree to begin with - a lot of 9s and crossing routes, stuff that doesn't require him to have good timing with Brady.

This guy will be there on easy routes just to overpower his opponents and grab those balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUST RUN REAL FAST STRAIGHT DOWN THE FIELD, FLASH! But seriously, has there been a super talented WR in our system not named Moss that has had success? Concerning.

Chad Jackson? Not much of a sample size there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
