Someone had to ask.

Gordon’s agent Damarius Bilbo requested the trade after the team offered him about $10 million per season last week, according to ESPN’s Josina Anderson. Los Angeles did not give his agent permission to seek trade offers.

Yeah he’s almost as dumb as the OP. Nobody is giving this clown 13 a year.

He had a nice season, but he's often injured. Lucky for him, Zeke is potentially about to redefine the market for RBs. Gurley and Bell just got paid as well, so that'll put Gordon in the same category as those two.

Of teams where he'd be a good fit, I'd like to see the Texans as a trade partner rather than the Bucs, for obv reasons.

We didn't pay Mark Ingram 5 mil/year and you think Gordon at OVER 10 mil/year is even a remote possibility?

He really has no leverage. If he sits this year (has to come back by week 10) then this year doesn’t count towards his free agency and chargers still have his rights another year.

If he sits till game 10 and he comes back what if the chargers but him on PUP does this year count and he would be a FA next year.

Which team would give him 13 million. Maybe the Bucs, 49ers, dolphins, or chiefs.

with a fanbase that thinks everyone on the team should only take incentive based contracts under market value for their talent the melt would be interesting if they did.

Still a no for me though.

Nope. We have figure out how to pay a better back - Kamala. He and Murray are a solid 1-2 combo and we need to find the third back which is not Gordan. Too much $$$$$$$$
