forget which guest it was. He didn't mention this is something in the works, just that he'd personally do it. No idea if Francesa knows something we all doubt, my gut says he doesn't but still could eventually be true one day.
It ia obvious beckham and mayfield are not on the same page
With that huge contract and his limited production, there can't be much of a market right now.
Of course he does. Not a 1st rounder anymore but if he was made available im sure there would be a lot of action. He's completely cuttable after this season as far as cap ramifications go, so there isn't long term risk on that front.
so if he's traded he's going to either want A. and extension or B. future salary converted into guarantees. That's the risk trading for him from a financial standpoint.

Not true at all. He isn't the weapon he once was but he's still got plenty. The question is about motivation and attitude which is completely different and justified.
As far as comp Cooks was traded (along with a 4th) for a 2nd - so I'm guessing that it would have to be atleast be in that range.
but at least he isn't a malcontent. So, I wouldn't do that trade straight up. In fact, I can't think of a reason the Giants would want Beckham back even if it was in exchange for a bag of kicking tees.
“I’m going to have to get adjusted to the speed because he has an arm,” Beckham said, according to Cleveland.com. “He throws that ball hard. Just catching from him the first day, it was like, ‘Wow! This is completely different.’”
Loads of talent, could have been a NY icon, forces his way out because of his ego and ultimately becomes an afterthought. Id say it a terrible shame but he got a huge contract out of the deal!
the Browns should trade Odell because Mayfield sucks and can't/won't get the ball to him down the field. He's wasted on the Browns and the Browns might as well trade him and get something they can use
with $0 guaranteed is a worthy gamble for somebody. I wouldnt give up a lot, but an exchange of broken toys or a mid/low draft pick wouldn't be a bad move, even for the NYG.
I'm sure I'm in the minority on that view, but to me the upside well outweighs the downside given the ability to cut financial ties cleanly at any time.
Beckham to rebound some this year. He's not who he was but he has enough to become relevant again for another season or two. I'm starting to think that Baker Mayfield is what will hold him back from that. Look at the stat line from Sunday. No way OBJ dropped all those passes. If he is traded, I would expect him to produce better.
RE: RE: Ha ha ha ha! Will everyone who knocked DG when he traded OBJ
I'm here to take my whuppin' but lets not pretend that DG hasnt been a disaster.
Maybe a little to early to say for certain but all signs point to that they seemingly have transitioned from one franchise QB to another. That isn't common, or easy for a GM to do, and even that alone would make it plainly clear that DG hasn't been a disaster.
Only time will determines how good a job he has done as the Giants GM. If he gets the QB, head coach, and a few other pieces in place that go on to compete for championships, then he will have been a very good one.
But in all seriousness, OBJ is a cancer and primadonna. No way I want him back.
Of course he does. Not a 1st rounder anymore but if he was made available im sure there would be a lot of action. He's completely cuttable after this season as far as cap ramifications go, so there isn't long term risk on that front.
Probably a joke but no thanks.
Why?
You could get OBJ just with one E now probably.

49ers have nothing at wide receiver.
Browns ask for a 2nd rounder and settle for a 3rd rounder plus a non starting player.

But I would LOVE IT if they did.

Or New England. The land of the misfit WRs!
"Can the Browns win the SB?"
Can they get to the fucking playoffs first?
Just being able to catch a ball is one thing - doing it while not derailing a team atmosphere is another

I agree, I think it could happen. They have some cap room and can make more if need be.

Also, let's not forget that there were a few people who proposed trading Beckham well before DG actually did, and they were treated like Galileo.
