Rumors were flying all over the place about the NFL and NBA team in Wisconsin yesterday (More to come on the NBA team in a later post). FS1’s Skip Bayless reported that Odell Beckham Jr. would like to play in Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers. Bayless mentioned that this happened in a private conversation and Beckham Jr. would like out of Cleveland after one year. He’s had a rough year with the Browns, and part of it could be a sports hernia injury plus the struggles of Freddie Kitchens’ as a first-year coach. Even though he is controversial, Beckham Jr. would be a great fit for the Packers.

Here is the clip of Skip Bayless saying a source he trusts says OBJ wants to go to Green Bay.

I've seen my tweet cited as source material on this, but this is where it came from. https://t.co/sPYUpz4ypj

Beckham Jr. is under contract for the next four years and the contract itself is a reasonable one. He makes 14 million per in the next two years then the money goes down to 13.75 for the final two. Cleveland will want a decent package for him, but it’s unlikely the expectation would be for a first-round pick. Green Bay could fill another a hole first their first-round pick then trade their second for Beckham and have an established receiving core for the next five years of Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay becomes lethal and a true threat in the NFC.

There are some that might not Beckham Jr.’s attitude and I get it. Yet he has not been in a structure like the Green Bay Packers. They have a good culture with guys that will not put up with his shit. Beckham Jr. is an enigma and a guy that typically did not come to Green Bay. He can be a rockstar with Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams. The idea that he doesn’t like Cleveland would likely mean that Green Bay wouldn’t be much better but playing with Rodgers over Baker Mayfield is a significant upgrade.

This is a top headline to watch in the NFL offseason.
