how much time does a team have to claim him, dont understand the process, does Washington have to wait for Miami to pass and so on?

24 hours. He will likely be claimed by 4PM tomorrow. Bills should put the claim in and see if he lasts long enough to our spot

I dont know the answer to the first question, but Yes to the second. It goes in order.

That's right. All teams can put a claim in, and then they just give it to the lowest.

Gordon should let teams know he doesn’t want to play for. He’s in unique position. 


every person released from this point on is in the same waivers situation  so how unique is it

Quote

Except in rare incidents, the waiver period lasts 24 hours and all waivers are categorized as “no recall” and “no withdrawal,” which means once a club waives a player, it cannot take the player back or change the player’s status.

 

Quote

Once a club waives a player, the 31 other clubs either file a claim to obtain him or they waive their chance to do so (thus the origin of the term “waiver”). Clubs are assigned players on a priority basis. From the first business day after the Super Bowl until the day after the third regular season week, assignments are based on a claiming order that is the same as the order in which clubs selected in that year’s Draft. From the beginning of the fourth regular season weekend through the Super Bowl, assignments are based on the inverse order of their win-loss record. For example, a team with fewer wins will be awarded a player off waivers ahead of a team with a better record. If a player passes through waivers unclaimed, he becomes a free agent.

 

Quote

From the trading deadline through the end of the regular season, vested veterans are subject to the waiver process.

Gordon's past and suspension situation is what makes it unique.

It depends on how much money he still has in the bank.  If he's liquid, he can tell teams he won't show up if he's claimed

 

BTW, do we still hold Dri Archer's rights?

Because Player A telling you I don't want to play for you means zero to just about every team, because they will just play and have to deal with it. If Josh Gordon says he doesn't want to, and you do it any way, and he gets in trouble again, you look like garbage, not to mention that your team is worse off than not taking him, and you had been warned. He's already said he wants to land in a good supportive environment.

So like EVERY player released after the trade deadline That isn’t really unique.

Then you cut him. Not really that hard. And it isn’t unique to any player getting cut they all could do the exact same thing

Do you not know Josh Gordon's history?


yep. So you are telling me he wouldn’t show up. Play and make money? Because he was suspended in the past.

But then you're still on the hook for his salary. For nothing in return.

Not every player.  Other players don't have history, baggage, stature or bank accounts to make demands when they're on waivers.

And it's a PR disaster, as well as horrible for the guy. You cannot be that naive to the unique distinction.

neither does Gordon. You really think he won’t show up to a team that claimed him in a contract year?

so MIA claims him. Gordon who is trying to fix a career and earn ISNT going to show up and play so he hits UFA clean Really?

Why is everyone so sure he won’t make it down the waiver wire? I would actually be surprised if ANY team claimed him. Has shown inability to stay on the field, wasn’t super productive in New England playing with the best QB in history and obviously did something to piss of the Pats. If Belichick thought he was rehabilitated and could play he would have waited the extra week and not IR’ed/released him. There’s a reason he isn’t a Patriot anymore and it isn’t because he’s healthy, productive, and stayed out of trouble.
