Teams represented at Odell Beckham Jr.'s private workout in Arizona today included the Panthers, Giants, Patriots, Rams, Cardinals, 49ers, Bills, Chiefs, Vikings, Browns and Ravens, per source.
Talked to a few people who attended Odell Beckham's workout. One noted how noticeably muscular Beckham looks now, likening him to a combination of Saquon Barkley and Deebo Samuel. Another said Beckham is simply a gifted athlete and that hasn't changed. Explosion was there.

Reports are that he tore his ACL in the SB due to a bad 1st surgery, and this 2nd surgery is suppose to correct it. So he should be good to go. Gotta trust the Chiefs docs, if they say he's good, he's good.
In his prime, he was better than prime Hopkins, and i think Hopkins is a modern Chris Carter. Both are sensational players. And even with some likely skill erosion he's STILL a great WR. Generational talents tend to age well, even when they decline.
He's exactly the kind of player you want on an incentive laden 1-2 year deal.
The only question is if he would take that because he's surely angling for the biggest payday.
And i understand his health history hasn't been great these last 3 years. But that's why he doesn't cost a 2nd round pick like Hopkins, and can hopefully come on incentive based deal.
he seemed like he was still good for the Rams, at least a few hundred yard games.
I'd be pretty happy if the Chiefs signed him up for a year. He's ridiculously talented.
I'm not really on board with trading a 2nd for Hopkins, but I wouldn't be pissed if they did it either. A 2nd is too much, a 4th would be the most I'd want to give. [Reply]
I still don’t like the guy. For all the talk about how we became a more efficient offense, we don’t need someone who’s gonna gripe about targets. I’d really like an upgrade at Wr1 but this doesn’t do it for me. We have too good of a team chemistry and the right path on offensive scheme to risk it [Reply]
He has a lot of followers on Twitter. Hard to believe KC would be able to out-bid the other teams that showed up to Odell's workout. That was a large number of teams. [Reply]
Odell is a freak. He has never played with Mahomes. He has burst that Juju does not have. Buffalo is not in a position to get into a bidding war unless they get rid of Diggs, Dawkins, or some other high end dude. If they do try to get rid of Dawkins, that might be a LT solution. [Reply]
