re: Week 6 News, Notes, & Stats Thread

frick Fournette and frick me for drafting Fournette.

Not really

You don’t want Fournette playing before his BYE

Rather him sit til the fantasy playoffs tbh

Guess I should have been more clear. Didn't mean that he may play this week, just that it's encouraging that's he's running now.

I’ve got Brees on bye so I picked up C.J. over Carr. SF will be behind and airing it out and C.J. has averaged 24 points the last 2 weeks

Edelman on Josh Gordon: "Dude works hard. Great teammate. I really think he can be a really big piece of us. It’s exciting to be around him. He loves football. You can tell. He works hard. He knows his shh… stuff. It’s getting more and more fun the more and more he knows."

Just spoke to Josh Gordon. He said picking up the Patriots' offense hasn't been too tough "greatly due to the help" he's received from Tom Brady and the receivers. Gordon said he spends most of the day talking football with Tom Brady between time in the locker room and in meetings. Said they have a very natural relationship.

"It hasn't been too tough," Gordon said of learning the playbook. "I think that's greatly due in part to the amount of help I receive from teammates here -- definitely Tom, all the receivers help bring me along on a daily basis, the coaches, just giving me all the resources I need and me taking advantage of it, going home and studying it daily.

"I think having a certain amount of experience in the league already and seeing so many different offenses and stuff, I think the language of it is somewhat familiar."

As for how he is managing off the field, Gordon credited Patriots character coach Jack Easterby for a "very hands-on" approach that has helped him acclimate to his new surroundings.

"It's been an awesome transition. I appreciate the love and support," Gordon said. "Foxborough is a real nice town, nice and quiet and peaceful. Me and my girlfriend are making it home. My family is here now. I consider the people in this community and around it, you know, family. They treat us nice everywhere we go. It's been a great experience."
