ESPN Cleveland's Tony Grossi reported Wednesday there is a "cynical point of view out there" that the Browns leaked a report about trade offers for Gordon in order to drum up more interest. Brown said he was not going to "entertain" that "speculation." It is important to note, however, Brown did say every player has a price, and saying the team is "not looking to trade" is considerably different than saying Gordon will not be traded. Gordon will most likely stay in Cleveland, but it is not a given. Aug 25 - 12:35 PM

After giving up a 1'st, 2'nd & 3'rd round pick to the Titans in 2016, and a 1'st & 3'rd in 2017, the Rams don't have a lot of available picks to move out of, although ... there is a good deal of speculation that the Rams will earn a 3'rd round Compensatory pick in 2017 :
turfshowtimes :
"If the Rams get a compensatory pick in the third round of the 2017 draft, the third-round pick sent to Tennessee will be the compensatory selection, not the standard third-round pick assigned to Los Angeles. If the Rams don’t get a third-round compensatory pick, the Titans get the Rams’ regular third-round pick, and the Titans seventh-round pick will go to L.A."
OK, we can't use a potential future 3'rd for a trade, but would you or do you believe the Rams would be willing to give our 2017 2'nd round pick for Josh Gordon, or do we have a player they would like coupled with a 4'th or later round pick which might make it work ?
Prior to a trade the Rams would probably want permission to work on a re-newing of Gordon's contract, but he won't be available until regular season game 5 anyway. I'd hope we would be up to it. Gordon added to our offense makes us very dangerous, not that we don't present a threat already, but this would really up the ante'. jmo
