Josh Gordon is worth the risk for the Seahawks to sign him cheap

You probably forgot about Josh Gordon. After all, Percy Harvin has more than 200 more receiving yards than Gordon over the last two years. Gordon has played in 35 professional football games in his five-year career and been suspended for 45 other games for violating the league’s drug program. He came into the league in the program because of repeated marijuana-related suspensions at Baylor, for which he missed the entire 2011 college season.

But unlike Harvin, Gordon is still only 25 (he’ll turn 26 before the draft). Gordon was the best receiver in football in 2013 (nearly 20 yards per catch on 87 receptions) after a Tyler Lockettish rookie season (50 catches for 800 yards).
