“So now, barring an unexpected trade, the #Chargers say Melvin Gordon can play for $5.605 million or not play at all https://t.co/ibxORCSDK5”

@hopesfall Ekeler

Gordon has been injured in the past and that's a concern but the fact that he misses games and is still able to put up stats that out him in the top 6 running backs shows how good he really is the fact of the matter if they want to win a Superbowl then need him

@freedilly Ekeler RB2 Lindsey Flex

@dlettieri facts. They need him this year. The MOST.

But for them to say all talks are on hold till after the season power move or stupid move with zeke looking like he’s getting paid sometime tomorrow

@maddmaxxnyg disagrees

It’s BS. Melvin Gordon will be there week 1 alongside Ekeler.

It's a power move for them to say that because they are saying unless there's a trade you either play for our contract your under or you don't play and lose money they are banking on the hopes that he doesn't find a trade and realizes hell lose money if he doesn't ay for them

I think RB’s contracts should be max 3 years, not 5...

Sweet! Got him in 4 leagues!

Well atleast the GM isn’t saying “Melvin who”??

Lol true

Where do you take Ekeler in standard?

I'm up soon in the 7th round

The chargers gm is doing the smart move. Why pay him when he has one more year under contract. If he doesn’t play he is still under contract Melvin got no choice. It’s a smart business move run him into the ground this year and move on let someone else pay him. Unless he retires and becomes the face of the xfl.

@taintman I took him in the 6th in a 12 man

@taintman now.

We all know who's winning the AFCW anyways

Sorry fantasy rosters.... you will not be getting points from Melvin thus yer

@chubacub The Raiders☠️

@Koolaid6015 this is what’s called hardball negotiations. Gordon isn’t gonna pass up 5 mil to get a bad reputation and take less. Bell didn’t get anywhere near what he wanted originally.

Showing up week 10 it’s official

@NachoTaco and pass up the 10 game checks?
