But why would the Browns want to let him go now? If they were going to do that, wouldn't they have done it when he got suspended?

Why wait all the way through the suspension until reinstatement? There's a new GM and coach in town there, you have to figure they'll look at it as a blank slate for him.

I doubt he's even on the market, not much point discussing.

I am one of the few middle aged white men that don't look at pot smokers as low lifes. (For the record I only tried it once in college) I heard he stayed out of trouble while suspended, worth a look if you can get him at the "damaged goods" price.

He wasn't suspended for weed. It was booze.

Sad thing is that he is AJ Green level talented, just has the mindset of a complete idiot

Even if he was, based on the CBA, failing a drug test for pot is really failing an IQ test in the NFL. They are only testing during certain times of the year.

Failing a pot test means he is an idiot.

Agree with the other posters. Keep our picks and pass.

Gordon and Dez could be great leaders in Dallas.

Chalk me up as another pass. Don't need anything messing up what we've got going on.

Does this mean we should get rid of TW? You know, Trent being such an idiot for failing a pot test.

Btw, they only test during certain times of the year when you are not in the drug program. Once in it, they are random and done year round.

I personally dont think McC will want to worry about the headache, so I doubt we need to worry about it. Especially if it involves giving up a pick. Vinny thought draft picks worth worthless, McC believes they are gold, even lower ones.

I know you're not in favor of bringing in Gordon but I have to call out this ridiculous "logic". Bringing in a new player with a history of being dumb enough to get caught multiple times is far different than cutting YOUR OWN PLAYER and taking a massive cap hit because of one transgression.

It's an apples and broccoli comparison.

Im just calling out the logic that anyone who fails a drug test in the NFL is an idiot, well except certain people. If it applies to one person, it applies to all of them. DYoung is the one who said that TW "Failed an IQ test" therefore making him an idiot. He wasnt talking about Josh Gordon with those statements, he was talking about every single player that has ever failed a drug test due to pot. If you are going to make generalizations about one thing, you cant pick and choose who it applies to. If he means we should keep all of our pot smokers (TW, Breeland, etc) but not take on anyone elses, then he should have said that.

Sweeping generalizations are a bitch. Dont make them if you arent going to back them.
