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.

Sorry - missed this - but

It's hard to believe that Reid/Veach are all set at WR before the draft.
Even if it's not Dhop/OBJ something else has to be considered. Especially when FA WR's were going for significantly reduced contracts. [Reply]

Do we not understand he comes with a contract too?
Yeah, a contract that's going to look really similar to what OBJ wants. Personally, I'll take the guy that has played the majority of the last two seasons over the guy that hasn't but is still expecting that kind of money. Sure, it'll cost us a second rounder, but that's a price I'm willing to pay to watch a guy like Hopkins catch passes from Mahomes.
If OBJ wants to come down off his 15 mil/per stance, then fine, let's talk. But until then, nah, and good luck finding a contender that will pay that price. [Reply]
I would like to go into the year with DHop or OBJ, then draft a rookie with the first selection. I'd really like us to push all in on a 5 year phenom receiver to pair with Patrick for the next leg of his career. You put a young Devante Adams, DHop, or Mike Evans with Patrick and Kelce, I'm okay with them giving up draft capital to make it happen. It just depends if you see a Devante, DHop or Evans in this draft, or if it's a bunch of Skyy Moores and Mecole Hardmans. [Reply]

Pretty much.
It just seems like OBJ can't be had for less than $10M/yr, but might agree to say $12-$13M/yr.
He might give NYJ a little bit of a discount on that, if the rumors about his relationship with Rodgers are true. [Reply]
Dude on another forum I'm on just posted a thread teasing that OBJ will likely be signing with KC within the next 24 hours, and when asked he said he's connected to an "A+ source with the team."
Could be an entire crock of shit, and an "Okay gang" situation. But thought I'd pass it along in here just in case. [Reply]

Did the Bengals see him practice and cut him already?! [Reply]
