Josh Gordon with Tom Brady as his quarterback is a thrilling concept, but the problem with Gordon is converting concept into reality.
Gordon was a dominant wide receiver for the Cleveland Browns in 2013. But in the four-plus years since, he has been that player only in our imaginations. It's so exciting to remember what he did that year -- 87 catches for a league-leading 1,646 yards to go with nine touchdowns in only 14 games -- that we ignore the fact that it happened five years ago.
The odds of anyone repeating such a performance after so much time are incredibly low, to say nothing of Gordon's chances of playing 14 games in a season.
