 Available WRs for Lions
Here's 2 guys that would be incredibly helpful to the Lions. I'd give up a 2nd for Gordon or maybe go cheap and get Little for a 6th. CJ, Gordon, Broyles would be a top tier WR corp.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
I wouldn't be comfortable with a 2nd for Gordon. 1 more f up and hes banned from the league. Little cant catch a cold but I also think a 6th is reasonable. A 3rd for Gordon would be good.

CJ, Gordon, Broyles would be a top tier WR corp. forget Little, the player to target is Gordon and he d fit in perfectly as a No 2. Red flags need to be checked out to avoid this being a Charles Rogers the fourth, Big Mike Williams the third, or a Titus Young the second situation but I would go for Gordon. Broyles or Edwards would transition naturally into a No 3 spot and Burleson's role could be scaled back as Gordon learns the offense and Broyles/Edwards regain health. I'd give a 3rd and a 5th for Gordon and a 7th but wouldnt give a No 2. Little, in my opinion is not worth acquiring unless all you are giving up is LeShoure and Durham or a conditional 7th round pick.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
I forgot about Gordon's MJ problem, so I think you are all very right in not wanting to put out a 2nd.
I still think Little is good value if they want too much for Gordon. Little can't be anymore frustrating than what they have now and he has to be respected going deep. Little would at least be a 6th round pick that actually can see the field.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
Id do Gordon for a 4th and LeShoure. The Browns are clearly trying to stockpile picks to build a future and I think you could get Gordon for that.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
There is no way Gordon goes for less than a 3rd and something else. His first game back from suspension and he went for 146 yard receiving, 1 TD, and added a 22 yard run too. The kid is Number 1 WR level talent, so they will probably get a 2nd from someone.
Everyone should probably just stop with the Leshoure stuff. The only chance the Lions had of trading him was probably the Colts since Irsay loves making deals, but even that was a far fetched proposition. Leshoure has no value.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
Gordon today's top receiver (and my flex player  ). His asking price just went way up.

Based on his performance, Gordon may no longer be on the block. I wouldn't trade anything for Little. In my opinion, I'd rather the Lions brought back Matt Willis and sh!tcanned Durham, than to trade for Little.

He's always going to be on the block since he's always one drug violation away from a huge suspension and his performance in that game isn't a surprise. The Browns know he's an elite player they just don't want to deal with his off the field issues.

 Re: Available WRs for Lions
I don't get it ... why do the Lions need WRs? Megatron, Burleson, Broyles ... plus Scheffler and Fauria and then also Bush and Bell... that's a potent attack.

I think we think we need a big #2 (outside) receiver--like Alshon is for you guys. Our other WRs, while talented, all fit the slot receiver mold.
