“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”

@KingDex

He’s not on the roster rn. He’s on the did not report. If they say you can’t come back. He’s still a charger. @pinballhero that’s why they said they talk about it after the season. You guys have to understand how this works. If they don’t allow him off the reserve list he’s screwed.

Im talking big picture not a single game. Gordon got shut down in games too. Im saying that The reason Conner, D Williams, McCoy... succeed/fail because of the system.in place

Same will be true for Ekler an Jackson

@michaelpaul71 exact same move I made in all my leagues...

I just think Darwin Thompson looked so good in preseason and feel like he can still play if shady struggles

But ekeler and Jackson aren't as good as Gordon they can produce but Gordon is I'm general the better back

Chargers will feel the absence of Gordon people sleep on him so hard for some reason

@dbarz that’s pretty deep knowledge of how NFL contract negotiations work...To say, “You Guy’s need to know how this works...” is pretty pretentious...

@dbarz can anyone confirm this? I don’t believe that’s how the designation works. As long as he reports they wouldn’t have the ability to keep him off the team without cutting him.

I agree hes a better back, but I dont think the drop off in production is going to be as drastic as ppl think

I agree kingdex ekeler and Jackson are good but they are no Melvin Gordon the can produce enough to look good but Gordon is the better back the chargers organization has even come out and said "we know we are better with him on the team" they know he's the better back and the stats he puts up despite missing games proves it. They know that if they want to make a run for the bowl they need him

They’re going to be very disappointed this year

@KingDex I don’t know the size of your league, the rest of your roster, and the scoring system..That’s why I said in a vacuum...In a deep league, if you’re RB situation on your team is thin, maybe keep Thompson, Goedert is an injury away from being the starting TE in a high powered offense that throws a lot to the TE...

Why don’t you explain this to me like I’m 5.

Hes going

To sign

@michaelpaul71 my TE is hunter Henry my rbs are bell freeman miles sanders Matt brieda and justice hill

@KingDex Does your league use a FAAB system?

Yessir
