#Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr tells me that he is planning to be at the #Giants facility tomorrow for the first day of the team's offseason conditioning program to "check in, workout in the gym and meet with some people." @OBJ_3 has a plane scheduled to leave later today.

Hopefully they’ll start talking contract

OBJ understands he needs the Giants and the NYC stage to maximize his visibility and marketability for non football $$$. The possible trade noise/bluff may have knocked a little sense into him. Fingers crossed they figure out something that makes both parties happy prior to the draft. Then we can all focus on non OBJ threads! Hallelujah!
He’s live on instagram

Would be awesome if they could just work a deal out now so that he's a full go and no one has to deal with all of the holdout BS.

I don't think it'll get done now - but I'd really love to just get this overwith and lock him up so that we can move forward and past all of the trade bullshit and everything else.
Personally, I think that the big market, especially NYC

And visibility, endorsements, advertising advantage, is no longer applicable in the 21st century I honestly don’t think it’s an inducement, at least one that overcomes other things that might attract a player to a particular team.

While I think that is true for guys like tom Brady, lebron james, guys like that, some stars would definitely get a boost from being in new yoek...

Beckham is one of the best wide receivers in football but because he does it in new york it is definitely louder...

Being in new york helps elevate guys still...

Holdouts are bullshit, they don't work. He knows he costs himself big money to do that. The way the NFL hands out suspensions and shit players need to be more aware of how their off field actions and personality traits will affect their pockets. Obj won't hold out...he will play on the premise that both sides are working to a deal.

Add Barkley and interior OL in round 2 and we are off to a good start to improving this teams capability
Think both sides want to get it done now.  
TMS : 4/8/2018 1:05 pm : link
The interest by the Rams could have complicated things because Odel may have found it amenable to going there. OBJ loves the game and is a team guy at heart. So lets hope it works out sooner rather than later.

Like your thinking.

He said this is all the giants wanted. For Odell to come in, price he’s healthy and talk to them and he will get paid. This is a good sign, I expect an extension shortly after.
Price=

This is wha he should do.  
Dave on the UWS : 4/8/2018 1:23 pm : link
I said weeks ago that he needs to be here for the meetings, to get his playbook, start learning the offense. As far as going on the practice field, I agree with any decision he makes. If he needs to hold out, at least he will be ready to step back on the field once he gets his contract. Showing up now, shows he's about "team", but he is also a business man. I'm good with that.

I am pretty sure Gettleman said Beckahm has been sending videos all offseason.
All I want to know is if OBJ is coming by land, see or air?

happy to see it

with his house in LA, I thought maybe OBJ was pushing an exit.

it did not make sense for the Giants....as all indication was they were reloading.

No way, losing Odell, would make them better this year

This PROVES the trade rumors were correct. Why else would he come in? Clean out the locker move forward.

hitdog42 : 3/28/2018 3:34 pm : link
1) the giants do not want to trade OBJ - talking about it makes them angry- and hes an EPIC talent and producer.
2) OBJ needs to maybe come in, do some rehab, have some conversations, and be a grown-up about it... and his contract issues would be solved
3) hes kind of not doing any of that right now, so maybe he should head to the stadium.
OBJ might still holdout, but he needs to make himself available  
Diver_Down : 4/8/2018 5:46 pm : link
at all workouts. By working out on his own, he accepts the complete risk of getting injured. By various public videos, he appears completely healed with no limitations. If he was to get hurt working out on his own, he would rely on his own private insurance. With the presumption of a holdout, the Giants would likely place OBJ on the non-football injury list allowing them to withhold payment of his salary. OBJ should treat his $8.5M salary as free insurance for the off-season workouts.

She’s horrendous. But this isn’t an opinion piece of which she’s earned her reputation. This is her reporting a player is showing up to a facility, it either happens or it doesn’t.
I mean she's directly reportig a firsthand conversation.  
Ten Ton Hammer : 4/8/2018 6:26 pm : link
It's not 'sources'. If it doesn't happen, it's not her mistake.
That is good news

The question is, how long will he be there for?
Zog how long he stays is beside the point  
Dave on the UWS : 4/8/2018 9:36 pm : link
He will do what he needs to do. Now the Giants need to make the next move. Contract by training camp would be great.
I think it is hilarious

Instead it is a positive Beckham thread and the people that hate Beckham are nowhere to be found

Scenario 1:
Odell doesn't show up and half of BBI goes ape shit demanding he be traded for whatever they can get because he needs to be there because this time is crucial to the success of the team this season. Logical fans realize this doesn't mean much and that he is working out on his own.

Scenario 2:
Odell shows up. Fans who would have gone ape shit had he not shown now say "who cares this doesn't mean much it's just the offseason conditioning program."

It's their worst case scenario:

From Schwartz:
Beckham no doubt heard the overheated — and overblown — rumors about the Giants entertaining offers to trade him away — they did, but nothing remotely serious ever materialized. The organization is moving forward with Beckham firmly in the plans.
