    True but he is still on the rookie salary correct? If he's a free agent they can ask for the Moon.

    I heard the reason they can cut him even though he says he's injured his because the injury didn't happen at practice or during a game but at a photoshoot. So now he has to stay away from weed booze and Nikons.

    well, another "dear john " letter

    does it seem like Clinger finally got his section 8?

  • I don't get the media using the words "showed up to practice". It was on a Saturday? yes/no? Yea, I can believe there was team meetings, Than throw on a suit to get bussed to airport to fly to NOLA...When's the last time a guy battling anxiety issues flew on a plane? No excuse to show up fried, but signs point to Josh has a illness he can't solely control? maybe meds too?

    i think he was very highly.liked on both sides of the ball, thats why this is gonna be a morale killer. But yeah im also syre no one is terribly syrprised either

    True. 

    Josh Gordon seems like a likable enough person. He isn't Terrell Owens. 

    I totally get why so many people rooted for Josh Gordon the person. What I didn't get is how so many Browns fans seemingly threw away any logic regarding him as a member of the Browns.

    Unfortunately I'm one of the knuckleheads that put logic in a gas fire.  Gotta confess - he beat the tar out of me over the years. When he first arrived I was all - "let's give the guy a chance."  Fooled me once, fooled me twice and then I went all about-face the next few years posting WTF are we wasting our time on this guy for?  Next thing I know I'm finding myself all in on his "Come to Jesus"  moment with finally taking the drug addiction and career serious.  Gee, there's a surprise - Flugel has his village idiot hat on before week 2 kicks off.  That wasn't cheap either. I had to fill out an id ten t form to get it. Here's what that form looks like in all caps - ID10T.

    There's allegedly a handful of teams interested (per ESPN's Adam Schefter) - so can we  at least get more than a 7th round pick for him?  Or, do we massacre that too? 

  • if dorsey was the one who let it out they were cutting josh, than now expects some trade value....haslem ought to fire his butt before sundown. Wtf? ur not getting sht now dumbass. 

  • dont you think he called around first though?  

    Id give him that

  • What a long strange trip it’s been.

    I can’t help think that Gordon being on the team created some unsavoriness within the locker room and how he was basically given an exemption on training camp and more.

    I mean, that’s what creates the bond between a team is going through the same crap, both good stuff and bad, day in and day out, together. It works for a football team as well as a glee club.

    The only thing l can liken it too is when Josh Hamilton and his troubled past joined the Reds. He actually performed well for them and didn’t screw up, but there were rumblings about how others on the team didn’t care for the preferential treatment he was getting, and boom, he was later traded.

    dorsey got here Dec 7th..trade deadline passed Oct.3rd.Hue may know his trade value than?.He knows Josh trade value is no more than a 6/7th comp.pick at best. if he fails? nobody sees nothing. Dorsey did the right thing to a team that can claim him on a million for a year than what player will see being cut monday. Who's giving Josh a new FA deal?

  • Wow what a thread... Minimal info = Maximum speculation...

    And then there's the cherry on top... Phoolie reverting to form and making the thread all about himself. Now there's a guy who should be cut. Clearly he's on something.

    Gee, who didn't see his "Just Call Me Tom" personality losing out to his alpha with a bottle personality "Ghoolie" for the 999th time?   The artist formerly known as Ghoolie lasted 4 days this time?

    It does seem as though we would have kept our cool, show cased him today and perhaps Thursday then traded him. Since it appears he has violated nothing to result in a suspension we may get higher than a  7th as teams vie to obtain him for the year on his rookie contract. If he is cut he is a full free agent able to go where he chooses and negotiate his own salary.

  • Good riddance, addition by subtraction. Last I heard, Gordon stayed out most all of training camp,then claimed a hamstring problem because he played in some ...basketball competion ? Whatever it was, it wasn't permitted by the NFL or the Browns.  I remember that Gordon and Johnny thought they were the only "real" ones...

    Gordon is just a locked in loser. Too bad. I thought he would have been in training camp every single day, to get his last chance and....nope. Excuses, fails, and dope and booze,...   All that talent and no legit brains or heart. Nobody can blame the Browns for trying and trying to help him, but he couldn't care less to help himself.

    Done.

    *EDIT - oh, and I wonder if he was supposed to come back for that pass that got intercepted.

    whatever. just....

    Done.

  • Our WR depth chart is shocking right now ....we have to add to it either a FA or trade

  • I'm not surprised but this but I can't stop feeling frustrated. Talent does not always meet with self control. 

    I wish Josh Gordon the best, he looks like a nice guy despite his problems.

    Time to move on for us.

  • Callahan and ratley better step up

    Exactly. I think we all were hoping he was coming back to give a big boost to the offense. 

    It just appears he's unmotivated. If that's the case he won't succeed anywhere.

  • Contrary to what lot believe he will be picked up quickly!! I can understand browns upset with him but why not suspend him 4 games or so rather then just cut him get nothing.If drugs or alcohol arent involved im not sure they should outright cut him!

  • His act has gotten old.  Time to finally move on!!!!!!!!

  • Callahan and ratley better step up
