Summary 

Josh Gordon is a superb receiver who can catch almost anything thrown his way. He will draw eyes anywhere on the field, inconveniently he will also draw eyes anywhere off the field. He is about to receive his second major suspension from the NFL, a third could be a lifetime ban.  He is a major risk for any team with long term aspirations for the player because of his off field concerns.
