For a few days, trade talks had ramped up regarding Odell Beckham Jr. and the New York Giants. Well, everything has reportedly come to a close because we appear to have a done deal. As reported by ESPN, the wide receiver has been traded to the Cleveland Browns for draft picks and safety Jabrill Peppers.
It is being reported that Odell Beckham Jr. will be sent to Cleveland in exchange for Jabrill Peppers, a first-round draft pick, and a third-rounder. Obviously, this trade will be picked apart and critiqued all night so it'll be worth it to tune into NFL Twitter tonight. It will definitely be entertaining.
The offseason has been absolutely insane so far and this just adds to it. With the Giants and Browns pulling off this trade, what else do you expect to happen before next season starts?
The shocking acquisition comes after much speculation was made over where Beckham Jr. would end up playing next season. The Giants' asking price was previously described as "ridiculous" but as many as three teams were speaking with management about acquiring the superstar last week. Do you think OBJ will lead Cleveland to a successful season? And who do you think wins this trade?
