  • Holy shit, we used a second on this guy? holy shit.

    I am not adding anything this discussion than to say I am surprised. We need him. Go heckert. Hope we don't miss that pick next year. *fingers crossed*

  • Well it looks like Colt and Carlton Mitchell are headed to greener pastures. I don't see him as an upgrade over Tommy Streeter, Stephen Hill or even Marvin Mcnutt... With some pretty nice names at WR next year would have prefered waiting for someone like Justin Hunter. Besides his 12" hands nothing remarkable as Jim Brown would say. If we could have gotten him at 3 or 4 i wouldn't mind but a 2nd rounder for us is like a 1st rounder for some other teams. I think they are just trying to appease the fan base and try to get to the playoffs quicker...not sur this one will pay off though...hope i'm wrong.

  • Hope im wrong. Really, truely do....

    Hes a brown now, so im not gonna go on and on. Camp got a bit more interesting for sure.

  • Interesting comment from a CFL scout . They had Josh Gordon rated over Stephen Hill. I hate the idea of tossing 2's around, but if he was rated anywhere near Stephen Hill it doesnt sound too bad. Welcome aboard Josh!

  • this move reeks of past browns regimes that mortgage the future in order to save their own necks

    this reminds me of Jim Paxson trading a 1st for Jiri Welsch

  • I agree man.....be proactive. Look to improve. We did that today.

  • Gordon is a starter right now.. he's got better hands, is faster, and runs better routes than Massadrop. Yes, he'll probably lead the league in drops/target like Little did - and for the same reason - but his ceiling is 10x higher than Massaquoi's ever was.

    Little/Gordon/Norwood/Cribbs/MoMa/Mitchell would be the 6 WR's I'd go to battle with this year. Cooper on the taxi squad.

    If this was the normal draft, Gordon is a 1st rounder. He fell asleep in a car where there was pot.. big deal.

  • I think we finally have a Front Office that will take a chance to improve & I am excited with this move. What I was afraid of most was that we would wait until the 3rd & one of the already solid teams would jump on him late in the 2nd. I have literally no doubt that would have happened had we waited.

    Look at it this way...we didn't wait, hoping they were there later, for T Rich, Weeden, Schwartz, & now Gordon. I applaud this aggressive Team building.....It's long over due, but it's happening NOW!

    Aaaah, I'm excited, but the last time I was this excited was when we picked up Big Baby, Stallworth and Williams(?).

    Interview with Josh Gordon... seems like a good kid... Now I really can't wait for the season to start!!!

  • He does seem like a guy that realizes he made a mistake and doesn't want to repeat what happened. Let's hope he's as genuine as he's coming off. This guy makes us better. I said it a few days ago and I can finally set it in stone now that he's a Brown.

    The Browns will make the playoffs this year.

  • Gordon,Richardson and Weeden! New offense for the Browns. AFC North watch out cause the #Browns are coming to a stadium near you! #Browns

  • Greg Little was off for a year and caught 61 passes as a rookie.

    Here's to Little and Gordon growing up together like these two did:

  • I figure that Washington, New England, Ratbirds and Squeelers, Eagles... a lot of teams

    would have nabbed him in the later round - before the Browns had another chance.

    Kid seems a whole lot more wise, and a good one.

    Really nice, smart move by the Browns.

    Playoffs? Browns? You're kidding?

    I'm not. The Browns have added real solutions to the weaknesses on the roster.

    This next season is going to be a LOT of FUN !

  • No complaints here, gordon should be equal to or better than momass from the getgo and be less concussion prone to boot ..

  • There are alot of idiots on this board...

  • The only thing I'm worried about, is our luck on WR's in the 2nd round.

    We keep drafting more WR's in the 2nd round to replace past 2nd round WR failures.

    I think we've had like 7 to 9 2nd round WR's and so far none have panned out (Little is still pending).

    Johnson,

    Northcutt

    Q

    Davis

    Robiskie

    Massaquoi

    Anyone name any other 2nd round WR's we've failed on?

  • I liked Johnson and Northcutt. Momass is still pending but Little is the real deal. Just wait until Gordon gets hot, who will the Defense cover? Cameron and Moore running around with Little and Gordon streaking and cutting, Travis zipping around and Cribbs taking the snap... LMAO this is gonna be a great time. My pizza and wings and beer are going to taste sooo sweet and amazing after a decade of heartache. I'm ready, are you ready Believeland?~~!
