OBJ trade possible?

[Guiness]

I saw the Pack mentioned at PFT as a possible trade destination for Odell Beckham Jr before next Tuesday. Anyone seen that elsewhere?

I'm sure I don't know how that would work cap wise, but teams can generally make it happen if they want to.

[George Cumby]

No thanks.

[smuggler]

He can't get open. So we don't want him.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

He can't get open. So we don't want him.

More like Mayfield can’t get him the rock. OBJ’s still a great route runner; think Greg Jennings with more speed.

[smuggler]

I've watched numerous Browns games the last few years. OBJ now is slower than Jennings (at his best), and can't get open. He can stay on the Browns, especially given his salary, let alone what we'd have to give up in a trade.

True. He was barely faster than Jennings coming out, and after an ankle injury, quad injury, and torn ACL, he isn’t as fast as Jennings was here. I still think he has value. Mayfield just isn’t that good, and has missed him open a lot. With his salary and injury history though, I’d stay away.

[Guiness]

I'm not in love with the idea, but it's looking more like the Pack needs a replacement for MVS and a a mid-season move to a contender might motivate him. He has no guarantees for 2022 so he could be cut loose with no dead cap after the season. Cap hit for this year would be in the neighbourhood of $7m.

Smuggler's comments that he's lost a step are concerning.

[bobblehead]

I sat at a BJ table with OBJ. Staff had to hammer him to pull his mask up every 10 seconds. A week later I see him in the news complaining that the NFL should cancel the season for the safety of its players. Fuck that douche!! (This was Julyish 2020)

How the fuck one’s supposed to give a BJ with a fucking mask on?

[smuggler]

Plus there is that whole poop thing...

[RashanGary]

Davante is a legit #1

After that we probably have 3 #3’s in MVS, Lazard and Cobb.

Missing Tonyan means we’re gonna need some injury luck the rest of the way. Lazard plays a similar role to Tonyan so I think we’ll be ok.

[King Friday]

I would take Cooks over OBJ if I had to make a choice in getting another WR. However, I wouldn't take either, as I think the chances of us not having Adams, Lazard and MVS active in the same game again this season is remote. I would rather find a TE or more depth in the secondary.

[run pMc]

Agree with this. All those injuries are going to rob him of speed/quickness. At his age and salary, I'd think there are younger, healthier, cheaper, as-good options. He's a marquee name, but I'm not sure he has marquee production or athleticism anymore. Besides, they need a pass-catching TE more than a WR... Davante, MVS, and Lazard are coming back. Tonyan isn't (this year).

[smuggler]

OBJ being poopy in the locker room, in addition to in the bedroom. Seems like he needs some psych meds.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Now we don't have to trade for him. So is he worth it now?

[bobblehead]

Well, if you want to add to the current teams circus bring him in. Personally I'd pass on a guy who acts like he is still a premier receiver but in reality is not.

[Joemailman]

Now we don't have to trade for him. So is he worth it now?

He goes on waivers. Packers are 28th on the waiver list. OBJ's base salary is 14.5M unless Browns restructured the deal before releasing him.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Unfortunately for the Pack, OBJ will be a Saint, which - according Bobble - should be impossible b/c the Saints are in a “cap hell.”

There’s no such shit as a “cap hell” anymore. Trust me on this. I’ve passed the Wisconsin CPA exams.

[NewsBruin]

He goes on waivers. Packers are 28th on the waiver list. OBJ's base salary is 14.5M unless Browns restructured the deal before releasing him.

I read this morning that Junior's salary was converted to a signing bonus for cap relief, which would reduce him to veteran-minimum salary. I'm not sure how recent that is, but I believe it means all that converted salary is stuck on the Brownies' cap and not on whomever picks him up.

[Tony Oday]

Still don't want him.

[Guiness]

He goes on waivers. Packers are 28th on the waiver list. OBJ's base salary is 14.5M unless Browns restructured the deal before releasing him.

Browns and OBJ are reportedly restructuring the deal in order to minimize the Brown's cap impact, but as PFT pointed out they have to be careful if he wants to pick his next destination. He could get claimed by the Jets (or worse, the Giants!) a la Randy Moss to Tennessee.


The two sides are believed to have agreed on a revised contract that presumably limits the team’s financial obligation to Beckham and/or spreads some of the cap burden to future years by converting some of the salary into a signing bonus. The negotiations undoubtedly tried to find a sweet spot that would reduce Beckham’s pay from Cleveland in order to allow him to get his wish to play elsewhere. At some point, however, the remaining salary becomes sufficiently low to entice a team to claim Beckham on waivers. Perhaps a team for which Beckham doesn’t want to play.

[call_me_ishmael]

LFG. I would do this for sure. The name of the game is the super bowl, nothing else matters this year as it's getting blown up after the season anyway and a rebuild. This is the kind of move that can be the difference between winning and losing the NFCC.

[Fritz]

Still don't want him.

Me neither. Dude's a fuckin' tuna fish.

[Joemailman]

Adam Schefter

Additionally, any team that claims Odell Beckham Jr. would inherit $7.25 million of salary for the remainder of the season, per sources. The cost is considered high for a player that now will be considered a rental with this being the last year of his contract.

[Freak Out]

Please no.

[smuggler]

How? I understand converting base salary to bonus, but the opposite shouldn't be possible.

Only thing that makes sense is converting future year base salary to current season. But that doesn't help the Browns, it just makes him harder to fit on good teams this year at that contract.

[NewsBruin]

Two sites showed OBJ's 2021 salary as $15 million. The ~$7.5 figure looks to be only his remaining game checks. I have no idea what maneuvering could be done, maybe converting his 2022 (maybe 2023) to a voidable year(s) that immediately gets voided.

Maybe I'm just thinking too hard. Wouldn't the Giants have had to eat his signing bonus when they traded him to Cleveland?

[Sparkey]

Singing bonus yes, but roster bonuses and others are not recognized until earned.

Either way, not a guy I would sign.

IIRC the Giants did eat the bonus. They paid him $20.5M for 12 games before dealing him. Tells you what they thought of him.
He's been hurt so much I wouldn't touch him for $7.5M, plus the packers don't have that much cap space anyway.

[smuggler]

The conversion of salary to roster bonus is to protect the Browns. It was agreed to by Beckham's representation. It means they expect him to go unclaimed on waivers.

Assuming he is not claimed: The Browns will pay him $4mil instead of $7mil for the remaining contract in 2021. If and when he is signed, the Browns will now be required to pay the difference in his remaining salary up to that $4 million threshold.

In other words, Odell Beckham paid $3million to not play for the Browns again.

If he's claimed, it's all academic.

[beveaux1]

Rumor was that the Saints kicked the tires on him Tuesday, but didn't make a deal. They probably wanted the Browns to eat almost all the salary for the remainder of the deal.

Not likely to be picked up by anyone on waivers. Saints might take him for league minimum after he clears.

[smuggler]

What the Saints could really use is a quarterback. I can only imagine how frustrated a peabrain like Odell Beckham would get while receiving "passes" from the golden arm of Trevor Siemian.

[Joemailman]

Browns sure missed OBJ.

[smuggler]

Addition by subtraction.

Really though, Nick Cubb being back made a world of difference.

I bet back in the days, alotta uncool Pack fans said they didn’t want Bad Moon Risen either. The Packers currently lack a bona fide #2 wideout. OBJ would be that guy.

[Tony Oday]

Where does a slow, can't get open, cancer fit on this team? He can't block so he doesn't take Lazards spot, he isn't fast, so not MVSs spot, he thinks he is the greatest so do we bench DA?

[King Friday]

OBJ? Hard no. The dude had to make ridiculous one handed grabs back when he was healthy to get catches. Now that he's lost speed, he won't even be able to do that. The Browns consistently played better as an offense over recent years when OBJ wasn't on the field. He's not even a capable #2 anymore.

On the day in which he could make his final decision, free-agent WR Odell Beckham Jr. is honing in on the Chiefs, Packers and Saints, per league sources.

[beveaux1]

I’m betting on the Saints. Packers probably won’t make an offer.

[Joemailman]

I’m betting on the Saints. Packers probably won’t make an offer.

Of the 3 teams, Saints need him the most. But potentially from OBJ's view, Saints have the least attractive QB situation.

[call_me_ishmael]

I think he'll be a Packer. Which of those three teams have the best shot at a chip? GB for sure. I also think the narrative that he is washed up will prove wrong. He will be an electric Packer. At least I hope haha.

[NewsBruin]

Meh.

[Sparkey]

Have MVS and Lazard hit their ceilings? Odell's got talent, but I feel like we never max out the talent we've got.

We will probably never know as Rodgers seems to have decided that it is TAE all the way, even if other guys are open.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

You were like 13 years old

And couldn’t wait to grow up. Now that I’m, sadly, nearing 40 and still flipping burgers, wish I could still be wearing American Eagle cloths at the prime age of 21.

J-Love’s infamous debut is a testament to the notion that A-Rod should get what he wants in cold, dark and dull Green Bay.

In a win now league, without Butte, German Shepherd, Alfred E Neuman and Frog are merely getting terminated by a vicious - yet stoic - terminator from the future. The 3 Stooges need Butte like John Conner needs his mother.

If Butte wants OBJ, Butte gets OBJ. And based on a recent tweet from the goddmaned media puke, Bob McGinn, Butte wants OBJ.

The season isn't over, King.

I wonder if this recent stuff with Rodgers is causing the team to re-evaluate the idea of bringing Rodgers back for a longer term contract. How much bending over will the team continually have to do in order to appease him?

It's one thing to listen to his suggestions about players. It's another to cover for his ass because he wants to be disingenous about the vaccine. And if they covered for him on that one, will that embolden him to become more demanding? In my experience, the answer is yes.

Packer organization has to decide if it's going to be Neville Chamberlain or Winston Churchill.

[King Friday]

In all honesty, a one year vet minimum contract wouldn't upset me. I don't think he's a difference maker any more, but he has a whole lot of incentive to play high caliber football because he won't get another big contract in the league until he does. I'm not sure OBJ would take that deal. That would certainly test his desire to play in Green Bay, but I suppose it would be possible.

I seriously doubt Rodgers wants Beckham, at least not enough to make a big deal about it. I also seriously doubt the team somehow changed their mind and/or doesn't want Rodgers back.

I wouldn't complain if they signed Beckham as that would mean the team did due diligence and decided he's worth a shot. My best guess, though, is they decide against getting him.

In the rye, OBJ is a prima donna. But guess what? All hotshot WRs are prima donnas nowadays. Even the Fresno FREAK. Humble, hard-working, blue-collar wideouts like Jerry Rice and Jordy Nelson are extinct.

[Guiness]

Don't know, but it's possible. Mayfield only had 50% completion pct. this year when targeting OBJ. 70% to everyone else.

I saw another stat that said only ~60% of the balls thrown to OBJ were rated as catchable, so that seems about right.

The bigger question is why are those two numbers so low? Because OBJ was not where he was supposed to be or because Mayfield can't make the downfield throws?

[HarveyWallbangers]

The two games that I saw Cleveland, Mayfield missed OBJ a lot. The guy still has more than enough speed and quickness to get open.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Don't know, but it's possible. Mayfield only had 50% completion pct. this year when targeting OBJ. 70% to everyone else.

Mayfield is woefully inaccurate down the field. That could explain the difference. Mayfield’s completion percentage to other receivers is inflated by dumpoffs to his RBs.

45 completions to RBs.
41 to Njoku and Hooper.
Landry is a possession receiver.

More than 10 yards down the field, Mayfield stinks.

[Fritz]

Okay, from what I read this morning on Acme, no team has any real reason to offer more than the vet's minimum, because whatever salary he is paid by whomever signs him will be simply deducted from the 4.25 million the Browns are paying him for the rest of this season. So if you offer him the vet minimum, OBJ still gets 4.25 million - your team pays the vet minimum, and the Browns cover the rest. You pay OBJ 3 million, and again, your team pays that amount, and the Browns pony up for the rest up to that 4.25 million mark.

So unless a team wants to offer OBJ over 4.25 million for the rest of the year, then OBJ's choice won't be about the money but about where he wants to play. Sounds like it's either KC, NO, or GB.

[George Cumby]

He's got no one to throw him the ball in NO, so it's KC or GB.

Actually, your source erred. There’s no offsetting voodoo.

OBJ’s restructured contract with Cleveland prior to his release calls for OBJ to get “termination” pay, meaning whichever team OBJ signs with next, he gets to “double-dip.” In other words, OBJ gets the 4.25 M PLUS whatever his new team pays him. If, say, Pack sign OBJ for $1M for the rest of the season, OBJ gets $5.25M.

Note that Cleveland saved about $3M in cash via the restructure and OBJ’s subsequent release. Unless he can get somebody to pay him $3M for 8 or 9 games, OBJ actually will lose frogskins.

Here's the quote from the article by "Tex" Western of the Acme Packing Company:

"Given the context of Beckham’s contract with the Cleveland Browns, which was just terminated when he cleared waivers on Tuesday, the Packers and other teams around the NFL have no reason to offer him more than that minimum. This is because his Browns contract has offset language in it, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. The Browns owe Beckham $4.25 million (down from $7.25 million, thanks to a deal they made with him prior to waiving him), but the amount Cleveland owes will be reduced by whatever compensation he receives from a new team over the remainder of this season.

Therefore, Beckham will get paid the same amount whether he were to sign in Green Bay for the veteran minimum or elsewhere, unless another team signs him to a contract worth more than the $4.25 million that the Browns owe."

So what is the source for your information? Maybe it's a better source. Where'd your info come from?

What does washed up even mean in this case? How can a 29 year old without significant injury history be washed up? He is an electric and special player, just a head case. I would have done this in a second.

Although I would have done this deal, too, the Packers offered him. However, you're incorrect about "w/o significant injury history." He just tore his ACL in Oct. 2020, which a lot of people say has had a great affect on his speed and cutting.

Yes.
"Based on reports, it's little wonder why Odell Beckham Jr. signed with the Los Angeles Rams instead of the Green Bay Packers."

Odell Beckham Jr.’s contract with the Los Angeles Rams could be worth up to $4.25 million, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The Green Bay Packers reportedly offered Beckham the minimum.

No, no, no, not according to "Tex" Western at Acme. The Browns are paying the difference between what OBJ was offered and $4.25 million, which is the termination agreement the Browns reached with him. So unless somebody offered him more than 4.25 mill, money was not a factor.

So indeed, the In-n-Out Vs. Culver's debate is real. Though I think myself that a debate between Miss California and Miss Muskie would also play a role in OBJ's choice.

LA equals more exposure and probably about the same chance of getting to the SB as in Green Bay.

But do that have an Oval Office where you can nibble caramel off............ :)

Dude....it's LA lol

That was a true Packer highlight my friend. Best $20 I ever spent. Was it $20? I don't remember now. I remember you protected that Favre jersey though. ha ha

You misspelled Musky

McAfee and Hawk said on the Punter Show that LaFleur wanted OBJ badly. Alas, Murphy and his personal trainer cap guy low-balled OBJ.

According to wiki, Murphy’s 66. Alas, the mandatory retirement age for the President of the Green Bay Futbol Club is 70.

OB has the excuse that Stafford ain't Rodgers if he doesn't shine in his season with the Rams. He doesn't have that excuse with Green Bay. The money in '22 onward was a factor in his choice.

He's not as horrible as he looked in Cleveland and he's not as good as he thinks he is. Where the needle falls within the pegs will be seen in the coming weeks.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Culver’s butterburgers are solid, but I prefer Freddy’s steakburgers.

In-N-Out and 5 Guys are overrated.

[beveaux1]

Woods with the Rams reportedly has an ACL tear. Looks like OBJ was needed pretty badly.

[smuggler]

Brady back to his old tricks. RIP Bob Woods' knee.

At the price point, INO are not overrated, IMO.

5 Guys are overrated, even moreso at that price point.

[Fritz]

In N Out is really pretty good - my wife and I tried that in Houston. Five Guys blows.

So I suppose if you're OBJ, the choice being in Green Bay and holding a Culver's burger in one hand and Miss Muskie 2009 in the other (okay, you could not hold her with one hand), or living in LA and holding an In N Out Burger in one hand while going In N Out on Miss California is really pretty obvious. And that's coming from someone who prefers In N Out burgers.

If Reggie White wasn't a religious guy he'd never have signed with Green Bay. Or maybe if he was religious like some of those televangelists, he would've signed with LA anyway ("God told me to sign with LA cuz the bitches and the burgers are hotter").

[King Friday]

OBJ showed nothing special Monday night. He's washed up and the Packers were correct in not overpaying for him. The guy completely gave up on a route...just casually out for a stroll in Santa Clara...and SF got the pick. He thinks he's a great WR. He's mediocre at best at this point because he doesn't have the drive to be great.
