    You're not a GM. You are some guy. So am I. Just let the professionals do their job. Though Gordon is not a professional anymore.

  • yeah wtf? They probably knew about this for days, why didn't we draft Watkins then? wtf...this is just unreal though really. I think pro athletes should be able to smoke weed tbh, so in principal I'm not against Gordon smoking weed. But he knew his next time out was gonna be for a year so that's the breaks...you wanna smoke weed,wait till next offseason and go take a vacation someplace where the testers can't get to you. Gordon just shit in Shanahans cheerios all of you need to understand that. He was going to be the focus of the offense next year. The whole reason we picked up Hawkins was so that Gordon doesn't get doubled up the entire season. Jordan better understand he's gonna be focus of the defense's next year. He might actually not have that great of a year because of this.

  • First off, he has a tattoo of a pot leaf on his back.....you could see this coming a mile away. Casual smokers dont get tats of pot leaves.

    Now if the test happened in the off-season then the NFL is taking this too far. If they went out and tested EVERYONE right now half the league would be suspended.

    No matter....Gordon is a dipshit. You have to consider trading him when he comes back. HE WILL NOT STOP SMOKING......EVER!!

    Yeah, me too. Leaves our wide receiving corps in a total mess.

  • What a crock of shit some of these replies.

    If Cin lost AJ Green for a year we'd erupt with delight.

    Admit what's happened, this is a fucking disaster

    Lol....damn, I guess I'm in the denial stage

  • D. Fox from Bull and Fox called this last year. Midway through the season after watching a bunch of all 22 video's on Gordon....he was loafing out the blocks when the ball wasn't going to him. Fox was a DB at OH St. so he knows how that game is played. Guys like that give the play away. That on top of the looming 1 year suspension, we should have traded him. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't we have 1st round interest in Gordon? Not sure which teams it was so wouldn't know how high that pick would have been.....but another 1st round pick, hell even another 2nd round pick....looks pretty fucking good right about now.

    Do you think I care if you hate. Im rich. I live in luxury. Like I care about what some fag thinks of me on the internet.

    Everyone on the internet is rich and successful haven't you heard?

  • You can beat a urine test for the cost of twenty dollars. What a jack ass

  • he may have been caught off guard. GUys who have tested + in the past get random drop ins. They are compelled to immediately supply a urine sample. Hard to beat a random test like that if you're caught in the middle of the offseason by some dudes showing up at your door. I wouldn't be surprised if the NFL trails some of these offenders in the offseason and if they're seen going places they shouldn't be....they get a visit on a sunday morning. Meaning if he would have stayed home and smoked weed they may not have bothered. I the NFL knows damn well that 90% of the players smoke. It's just where they go around doing their business is what concerns the NFL. You got players seen out and about doing things they shouldn't, looks bad. Do it in the privacy of your own home, nobody likely gives a fuck. This is how guys like Lebron, a known weed smoker to people in Akron, stay out of trouble. Lebron doesn't hang around places and people he shouldn't be. We give Lebron a lot of shit cause he's a dbag....but other than that he keeps his shit remarkably clean. These major sports organizations are remarkably lenient behind closed doors, if you're doing it at home.....they will tell when they are going to do their "obligatory" tests. And if you fail those you're an asshole.

  • Why release him? Fantastic idea.....smh.

    Problem or not, someone will take a chance on him, and I for one would rather be the team that rehabilitates him rather than watch him get his shit together for someone else.

    Otherwise, he pisses hot again and gets the perma ban.

    Good news is rosenhaus lost a lot of bargaining chips, so we don't have to pay him ungodly money.

    Relax....deep breath. The sun will come up tomorrow.

    I was thinking the same thing about his contract. If he did play this year and played the same as last year then he would want a huge extension. Now it will be a minimal finacial obligation to resign him.

    Still a dumbass.

    I'm guessing our starting WR corps will be Burleson, Hawkins, Benjamin, Little and Cooper. Not sure who else we have.

    Well there you have it, I guess.

  • Don't know what WR are out there. Hope our scouts are good and we find a UDFA who is a stud today.

  • Just legalize weed and get these ridiculous ass penalties over with. Not to mention all the other benefits.

    Whether a person agrees or disagrees with you the fact remains until it happens you follow the rules. How fucking dumb can a guy be?

  • Wr are just flying off the board too..

  • 1. Incredibly selfish move from Gordon. He knew he was on thin ice and his actions have caused a lot of disappointment for thousands of people. What the hell was he thinking??

    2. Fucking NFL. Weed? Really? A harmless substance that doesn't enhance one's on-field ability and is steadily becoming legal across North America? THAT'S what you're so pissy about? Good lord. Welcome to the 21st Century you bunch of knobs.

  • You wouldnt get alot in a trade for him now imo and i think hes done in cleveland. how freakin stupid can he be?

  • Lets take an optomistic view for a moment. The following are fact

    1) The FO knew about this yesterday before they traded down passing on both Watkins and Evans.

    2) The FO knew about this tonight when they passed on Lee and others and selected Bitonio

    I really do not think our FO is incompetent or blatatanly stupid. Given that fact is it possible they know something we havent heard yet? For example I read somewhere last year that Gordons circumstances did NOT necessarily mean a one year suspension. I honestly think based on their actions they must think he will play a major share of the season. If not the moves make no sense. I do not think they would have made these moves thinking they could fill Gordon with a 4th round selection, an existing WR or a free agent.

    Anyone else follow my logic there and agree?

    Doesn't change the fact that its still federal illegal and even where it is legal employers can still fire you for a positive drug test for THC.

    Bottom line is he knew what he was doing and is an idiot for pissing away millions of dollars.
