OK, OK...If you've made it this far, congrats. It's the obligatory Josh Gordon post! And, why not? There is no player with his skill set available on the waiver wire at the moment, unless David Johnson comes back for some insane reason.

Obviously there are question marks all over the place here, but if you have room on your bench, the upside Gordon can bring to your lineup is without equal. People have held onto him for years throughout his suspensions, hoping for a glimpse of him seeing the field. For the true believers that have held onto him -- and for those that pick him up off of waivers -- the day of reckoning comes December 3rd against the Chargers.

This is obviously a speculative add. We have no idea of his conditioning or if his skill is still there, though there is no reason to believe it's dropped off. The upside simply cannot be ignored. Fantasy football championships are a mix of skill, luck, and taking risk. This falls into the latter, but if you have a spot on your bench to fill, there is really no downside.
