I figured he'd get cut when he dropped that

Colts just lost Jack Mewhort for the season. With the zone blocking scheme they run, could be a possibility of trading them Beadles or Brandon Thomas.

Dump Thomas
Is Beadles able to be traded? We just signed him?

Yes, this isn't like the NBA or anything. The 49ers would take a dead money hit but depending on what the compensation is, its doable.

Who threw to him in Cleveland?

He's a deep threat. We need a reliable possession guy.

He's both.

This. Gordon is an explosive talent, you can throw the ball up to him anywhere. He and Torrey out on the field together is a nightmare for defensive coordinators as both guys can take the top off a defense and now you can't cheat to stop the run by moving your safeties up close to the line of scrimmage.


Nobody questions his ability to make an impact out on the field, its whether or not he can stop from going full Ricky Williams off of it.

What do you give up to get him knowing he could go Aldon on us

Cleveland isn't trading Gordon any time soon I don't understand why the hope. There was talk back in the Harbaugh days but that was a while ago. The owner likes him and they have given him chance and chance again, they clearly want to keep him and value his talent. I think the only way they let go of him is for a ridiculous offer i.e. 1st round picks.

If they split the difference and talk him the Browns down to a 3rd - worth it?

Yes, trade them Brandon Thomas, he is a 3rd rd pick
Maybe not this round of cuts, but Baalke should be scouring the waiver wire the next two rounds like a fantasy football GM. Niners need help at LB (inside and outside) and definitely at WR.

Supposedly they're asking for a 2nd to open conversation LOL! Not happening when a guy is 1 puff away from a ban, if I'm Cleveland I'll hold on to him because you go on thinking with him he helps the team tremendously and if he smokes his career away it's no big deal because it won't be a big surprise.

He needs to focus on wr exclusively because our group is a joke, kinda sad how other teams trash will be like finding diamonds for us. I'm praying one day we'll have a legit qb to go with his #1 wr, but with baalke running the draft I'm not holding my breath on a wr unless a team is stupid enough to let a good talent walk in FA
A little surprised Silberman got released
AT WR maybe guys like Nelson Agholor, Josh Huff, Cordarrelle Patterson and Justin Hunter become available. Lots of former 1st and 2nd round picks have been traded recently.
