Gordon has escapability and ball placement you don't often see outside of round 1, and everything I've read about him suggests his work ethic is top notch. Watching his film, the comparison I keep coming up with is a poor man's Drew Brees (because the arm strength isn't there but the throw accuracy very much is, and Brees had a much weaker arm coming out of Purdue) with escapability traits more in line with Russell Wilson (in terms of extending plays and turning broken plays into positive ones). I'm not saying he'll be anywhere near as good as either of those guys, all I'm saying is the traits exist and that I believe he could be the best value in the draft. It also helps that the Colts offensive system is similar.

I like him, Morgan, or Fromm
