Patriots: Should New England take another flier on Josh Gordon?

As the New England Patriots can attest to, Josh Gordon is one of the best physical talents at wide receiver in the game.

Unfortunately, despite his combination of size and speed that can be simply breathtaking at times, Gordon’s inability to avoid the temptations brought on by substance abuse has limited what he can do in the NFL.

Gordon was one of the best young receivers in the game with the Cleveland Browns, as he led the NFL in receiving yards during his second season despite playing just 14 games with an old Jason Campbell, Brandon Weeden, and Brian Hoyer as his quarterbacks.
