Another article/opinion on OBJ trade...

I’ll play. The 1st and 3rd would be fine, IF they threw in a 1st or a 2nd and 3rd next year

I wouldn't trade OBJ... especially for the proposed offer. But I'm sure others will consider the proposal intriguing. Maybe to grab Haskins, an ER and a very good player in the 3rd

or a first next year.

2nd overall pick straight up for Beckham? Good luck

For starters, we’d get their 2nd overall pick and keep our 6th

and next year's 1st to start.

.

arguments for trading him are his skirting team rules (which I don't think is a problem), the emergence of Engram at the end of the season, the injuries he's had the last two years, and a manageable cap hit if you do so.

I still wouldn't trade him unless the offer was ridiculous. He's an absolute game changer, and a generational player.

Your proposal has far less value than the proposal on the table...

coming off of two injured seasons and making a ton of cash?

Crazy stuff.

Being traded. No one is going to offer what we want

on what the Jints think about his record of injuries and whether this past year has had a negative effect on the locker-room.

of their own, like this particular one this year.

He should not be labeled injury prone. I wouldn’t even infer or imply it

to trade one of the best players at his position, and one of the best ever so far in his career, for the completely UNKNOWN quantity , create a hole in your offense AND a cap hit...

YES such a good idea.

Very few want him traded. I sure don’t. But if he was, we’re simply stating what we should receive in return. It’s just for discussion purposes, nothing more. At least for me

Let’s NOT trade one of our best players, a superstar, one of the few reasons fans are still watching the Giants.

His injuries are gonna have to get way worse before I can take any of this seriously.

do that deal.

If they do, they're high.

Look at the top 6 guys from last year's draft:

Mayfield
Barkley
Darnold
Ward
Chubb
Nelson

None of those teams would trade one of those guys for Beckham straight up, and we wouldn't trade Barkley for Beckham if he were on another team.

Hugely unrealistic.

Throwing in a third as well? I'm taking that and running.

Don't read this as me thinking Beckham must be traded, but that's an offer you can't refuse. Work out the cap details later.

On top of that, when was the last time a top 5 pick was traded for a current player?

What is our record with Beckham as our great player. Sorry, but trading him, seems to me a very smart move, save cap, add draft picks and get rid of a real head case seems like a win, win, win to me and a no brainer.

for OBJ

We were a win now team, with a young franchise QB, this answer would be different. Sometimes circumstances dictate the course of action, plus we have not won with him, if we had a franchise QB and the record was the same as it was since we had Beckham, we would be screaming no matter what his stats said, losing is losing, pretty or ugly, why is it different with a wide receiver, it isn't and shouldn't be.

Six losing seasons in Michael Strahan's career. TRAID.

If we are indeed looking at QB and Haskins is our guy then in all likelihood we will need to trade up from 6 to get him. If sold on Haskins, then this proposal allows you to get your QB without giving up a boatload of picks, keep your #6, your second and add a high third. You have the remaining 9 picks left to roster build.

Interesting offer.

His contract wouldn't necessarily be "a ton of cash" to the team trading for him since they wouldn't be on the hook at all for his signing bonus.

I'm not remotely in favor of trading him, but the contract wouldn't be an obstacle for any teams that might be interested. If anything, he'd be more attractive as a trade target since the acquiring team wouldn't need to sign him to a new contract themselves (unlike Khalil Mack, for example).

Are we going to do this every day?

Beckham isn't getting traded. It's a waste of time.

Damn it. I'll throw in the Tender Vittles then. But I'm not throwing in Kerry Collins.

I will begrudgingly accept the Tender Vittles.

Make that deal.

You’re not getting that much for a wr. He had better be 23 and perfect. Obj is great but he isn’t 23 and he isn’t perfect.

as he proved in his first year. Since then his value has dropped quite a bit. Injuries and missed games, for a smallish WR, who acts out often, during and after the season is over, has diminished his value quite a bit. Lucky to get a top ten pick for him, never mind the second pick in the draft at this point. Unless you have a targeted player on draft day. We have good WRs receivers, without him, and he has not been making that much of a difference WHEN he plays. MO

He acts out often? We have good WR's without him? He doesn't make a difference when he plays?

What the hell did I just read.

The Giants have 1 year of Sterling Shepard, restricted rights to Corey Coleman, then Jawill Davis, and Quarter Henderson.

You subtract Beckham and the Giants have the worst WR group I can think of in the NFL.

to a team that thinks he will take them to the promised land. The SF suggestion is wishful thinking. Love his skill set, but what some here, think he is worth is not realistic. Sorry to offend anyone.

You posted a handful of things that aren't true.
