Finn5033 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I may be completely wrong here but if his relationship with the team is fractured and there isn’t much chance he stays with the Chargers after his current contract. I would think they will run him into the ground when he’s ready to play 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think they will run him into the ground when he’s ready to play I don't think your basic view is wrong, but not sure we really know how fractured the relationship is and how unlikely it would be he ends up with the team next year. Trade deadline is a long way off, and he could always be traded too so don't want to damage him. Trying to recall any prior situations as precedent, but this mid 50s brain doesn't recall things as easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobwaa Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 The Chargers wont pay him what he'll want ....and Ekeler isn't cooperating. And imo Jackson is the future. Melvins gamble appears to not be working out too well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHAMPIONSHIP! I also traded away Ekeler and received Julio Jones after a guy needed a RB and saw his production week 1 lol. Also had Melvin Gordon on my bench so things are looking up for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League_Champion Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 He's reporting on Thursday. Must be tired of watching Ekeler tear it up. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27702462/source-chargers-gordon-plans-report-thurs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplemonster Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Gordon lost a lot of leverage one would think. Someone getting paid a fraction of him doing essentially the same job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Muto Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Gordon needs to take 1 more week off I am currently in 1st place in the NFFC out of 3204 people and I own Ekeler so I know my stay at the top will be short lived so I want 1 final monster game from Ekeler so I can finish week 4 as the #1 team and at least have that in my memory as my team fades when Gordon takes over. https://nfc.shgn.com/standings_overall/football/85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loaf Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 With JJ out, I would think the Gordon plays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Even if Gordon plays, I would bet he doesn't stay healthy very long. There is no way he is in game shape. I'd hold onto Ekeler....he'll be an RB1 again soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNOWBOUND33 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 As a guy I have been watching since hs, I hope it all works out for him. The NFL is kind of a mess with this contract situation right now. And the players aren't helping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fastdoc Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 The question is what do the Chargers do going forward? Ekeler has proven he's solid. I have both Gordan and Ekeler and I have no idea who to play in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
