Looks like Gettleman will be trading OBJ

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

he was never going to pay him $20m/year.  they're at the very beginning of a total rebuild with a new regime and presumably a new franchise quarterback next season.  if the giants are competitive at all over the next two years i'll be surprised.

2 First round picks is a high price to pay

To have him hold out for 20m a year too

I would be genuinely worried about signing him in a state with legal pot. If he wants it he's going to get it anywhere clearly, but sending dude to the mecca of blunts and coke lines known as Hollywood probably isn't the greatest idea.

Clearly the legality is not really a factor, then, if it is equally a mecca of blunts and coke lines?

Apparently he really wants to go the Rams, but man I would give up our 1st this year, Vern, and a future 3/4th rounder for him

and how will we pay him? 

thats not too bad of an exchange. Not sure gettleman would take it, all our picks are low picks and vernon butler is a mystery .

Don't see GMan paying him the money he wants...especially with his issues.    So, who has plenty of cap space and some attractive draft picks to trade????

OBJ t the Browns!

Would serve him right.

That report says Beckham wants $20+ million per year.....if that's true the Giants would be stupid not to trade him for a first and change.

The juice just ain't worth the squeeze

I doubt he's going to get in legal trouble there or anywhere else over it but it's banned by the League. If he gets in trouble just being in the room with the stuff don't send him to a place where it's as abundant as Starbucks.

Kalil, Olsen, Peppers, Davis are all off the books when they retire next season. There's always a way to move money around.

OBJ will become a Cleveland

Well....the Patriots just traded Brandin Cooks to the Rams and obtained a 1st round pick.

I wonder if OBJ to the Patriots could be in play especially if they also trade Gronk

Brandin Cooks - WR - Rams

Rams acquired WR Brandin Cooks and a fourth-round pick from the Patriots in exchange for first- and sixth-round picks.

The out-of-nowhere move lands the Rams their Sammy Watkins replacement, and also takes them out of the running for Odell Beckham. Now armed with the Nos. 23 and 31 picks, perhaps the Pats will make a play for the Giants' superstar. It's the second straight offseason Cooks has been dealt, both times for a first-rounder. He remained boom-or-bust in the Patriots' crowded receiver corps last season but posted a 65/1,082/7 line while averaging a career-high 16.6 yards per catch. Headed into the final year of his rookie contract, Cooks is still only 24. Fighting for targets with Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp while downgrading from Tom Brady to Jared Goff, Cooks might be best treated as a WR3 in offseason drafts.
