Philadelphia Eagles scouting: Ranking remaining WR free agents
36. . . . Josh Gordon. 10. player
At this point, it’s gotten difficult to remember whether or not Josh Gordon is suspended, whether or not he’s in danger of suspension, or what it is exactly that he’s being punished for these days. He’s taken a back seat recently to the conversations that we’ve heard about guys like Amari Cooper and Emmanuel Sanders, but if Gordon can ever put it all back together, he’s still one of the game’s best.
He’s just running out of opportunities to prove it.
58. . . . Paul Richardson. 9. player
Paul Richardson never lived up to the five-year deal that he signed with the Washington Redskins, but with Aaron Moorehead leading Philly’s wide receivers now, he could be in for great things in Philly’s offense.
He’s been overhyped. He’s had too much placed on his shoulders. There have been flashes, and he just downright stunk up the joint more times than we care to remember. If he is signed, it will be his last opportunity, but after hauling in 143 receptions for 1,809 yards and reaching the end zone 12 times, you have to believe something is there right?
Maybe Philly should stay clear, but he has done enough to warrant a look. Who knows? With proper coaching, he could explode.
