While I agree, it would be dumb to trade Gordon now...I believe there is a good chance that this front office trades trades him, if they can get good compensation in return.
Gordon will be property of the Browns through 2017, with next season (2017) being a Restricted Free Agent year for Gordon.
IMO, our front office would rather see their draft picks play and gain experience than to play Gordon.
What is a top WR worth in the NFL?
They could try to hold out for a 1st round pick and if there are no such offers this season, Gordon could figure into a 2017 draft day deal.
I would be shocked if this front office signs Gordon to a 2nd contract...he will be gone once the compensation is acceptable to our front office...just a matter of when.
