The dalliance between free agent vast receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and the New York Giants remains to be alive and nicely.
Beckham was on the NFL league conferences in Arizona this week procuring round for his subsequent crew. One among them, reportedly, is the Giants, who’re in search of so as to add a dynamic wideout to their rising arsenal.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll texted with Beckham “a couple of times” this offseason and added that “these conversations are non-public.”
Co-owner John Mara stated the Giants haven’t ‘closed the door’ on the concept of bringing Beckham again and was open to the concept if common supervisor Joe Schoen and Daboll might ‘make it work.’
However ESPN Giants beat reporter Jordan Raanan believes Huge Blue and Beckham simply aren’t a match at this time limit.
The Giants haven’t been keen to pay Beckham anyplace close to what he’s asking or will command. Their possibilities of touchdown him are slim to none, in response to one supply with data of the state of affairs. Buying and selling for Arizona’s DeAndre Hopkins is also unlikely.
The draft is a much more possible resolution as a result of that could be a extra economical and long-term resolution on the place. Daboll and Schoen have been touring the nation consuming costly steaks and assessing the vast receiver panorama, most just lately eating with TCU’s Quentin Johnston and attending his Professional Day.
New York’s subsequent massive transfer is more likely to be inking defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence to a long-term extension than signing Beckham.
The necessity for Beckham has swindled by the day. The Giants have truly been going one other route. Schoen has already acknowledged that he does consider {that a} crew essentially wants a “No. 1” vast receiver to succeed.
Schoen has been including to his vast receiver room virtually each different day with the re-signing of Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton, the commerce for tight finish Darren Waller and the free agent signings of Parris Campbell, Jeff Smith, and Jamison Crowder.
