After such a successful day yesterday, I can't think of many Browns related things that could have gone worse.

...and this was one of the reasons I wanted the Browns to draft Watkins at #4...insurance in case Gordon failed another test.
I'm not complaining about how the draft worked out, but I believe the Browns need to take the best WR on the board in round 2.

Yeah, this is literally the worst possible news that could have happened regarding the Browns outside of JFF and Gilbert both tearing ACLs entering Browns facilities today

So, this happened in early winter and our front office just heard about it?
That's messed up!

As ecstatic as I was this morning ... I should have known better 
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

I suspect the FO knew about he failed test before we drafted yesterday... and they still passed on Watkins. I'm guessing our plan all along was to take a WR with our 2nd round pick given how deep the position is this year. Pretty much has to be at this point.

No wonder we wanted to trade to 11 for Beckham and to 20 for Cooks

I'd be willing to bet they stop testing for it in a few years.

Agreed. Man, hope this is all bs. If it is all bs I'm going to write that ESPN reporter a strongly worded letter....

Also, isn't the headline misleading? I was under the impression that it's indefinite banishment with only the option of applying for reinstatement after one year.

Absolutely sucks.
Took the wind out of the sails going into the second round. If this is true (which I'm assuming it is) Gordon has let everyone down.
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

•Unarmed source
•Vague facts in the story
•Drew Rousenhous is already disputing the story
It's like I said, I'm skeptical.

Wow,, What an IDIOT. (if true)
I was just thinking about something.. HOW is it that the Browns didn't know about this yesterday so they could go out and get Sammy Watkins? Or did they and decided to go the way they did anyway?
Maybe they get the next receiver up in the second round?

The NFL's street drug policy is laughably lax.
You pretty much have to be a reckless idiot to get a suspension.
A second suspension is stupidity on an unfathomable level.
Let's hope it's untrue, but I'm not counting on it.

It's a top story on ESPN by a guy that's been around for a while... 2 different sources. Sure it could be a false story but I don't think so.

at least we weren't the laughingstock of the league for about 18 hours
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Time to do like the Patriots did a few years ago and draft Austin Sefarian-Jenkins and run a double Tight End set.
