    Ed Werder tweeted that the players and the NFL have agreed to a deal that would bring back 20 suspended players. TWEET

    If you have a players like B Sankey or someone who didn't play but you are holding out hope for. I would rather sit on a guy like Gordon now and have him instead of waiting for it to be officially announced. He was the number 1 WR last year after missing 2 games. He should easily be a top 15 guy you picked up on waivers if he is reinstated. At this point it is no different than sitting on Wes Welker.

    Already sitting on him in leagues that I didnt get beat to the punch in. I did the same last year in several leagues and obviously it paid off in spades, so Im more than willing to do again for a minute while we watch this all shake out. Dudes an all-generation talent when he's on the field, thats always worth taking a flier on despite his basic-ass head.

    Man my league tried to all get him hours after I picked him up. Lets hope this works out because I will have a nasty Wr set up with him, Demaryius Thomas, Kelvin Benjamin, Kendall Wright, and Colston....

    @BlackGPGT You think I should offer a trade for Antonio Brown with Marques Colston???

    @kpatidar1 Not sure if you can get Brown with just a receiver. Try, but your bench is a bit bare unless you also offer West.

    I dropped Wright and picked Gordon up before Week 1. I had Welker to with a 4 player bench. Hope it was worth it.

    Swooped him up as a FA yesterday! Lucky me...if things work out well, my 3 WR set will be Calvin Johnson, Demaryius Thomas and Gordon. If that's not beast mode I don't know what is.

    Really only have him for 3 weeks and playoffs. Next question is will he be worth anything when he does play...

    I picked him up in both leagues. I may use him for trade bait for more rb depth

    I'd file a lawsuit still if I was him. If its worth lowering it's worth dropping it.

    3 of those 6 games are HOU(wk11) then playoffs IND(wk 14) and CAR (wk16 championship). Plus who knows if manzeil takes over or if gordon is in shape. Don't get me wrong I would grab him or even trade low for him maybe target a owner that needs to win now once he needs ppl for bye closer to week 10 but I don't think he is without risk.
