Giants Asking For At Least Two First-Round Picks For Odell Beckham Jr

Adam Schefter, citing a league source, reports that the Giants have asked for at least two first-round picks in return for Odell Beckham Jr. According to Schefter, this doesn’t mean the Giants will get this return or even close to it for Beckham Jr, but they have asked for at least two first-round picks.

The Giants continue to leave the door open to a potential trade involving Beckham while also saying that they aren’t actively shopping him around for trade offers.

Yesterday, Schefter mentioned during an appearance on “Golic and Wingo” that he wouldn’t be surprised if the Giants traded Beckham Jr before this year’s draft.

“I would not be surprised if we see an Odell Beckham trade on or before the NFL draft,” Schefter said.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported Tuesday that the Giants are, in fact, listening to trade calls for Beckham Jr and they’ve already heard from “several” teams. Steve Wyche added that the Rams have No. 23 overall available for trade but Rapoport mentioned that it remains to be seen whether New York actually wants to trade him.

Multiple reports have said that the Rams are interested in Beckham and at least a team to watch over the next few weeks.

Beckham, 25, was taken with the No. 12 overall pick by the Giants back in 2014. He played out the final year of his four-year, $10,406,198 contract but the Giants picked up his fifth-year option last year.

Beckham stands to make a base salary of $8,459,000 for the 2018 season.

According to OverTheCap.com, trading Beckham would free up $8,459,000 of available cap space while creating no dead money.

In 2017, Beckham Jr’s season was cut short when he suffered a season-ending injury. He caught 25 passes for 302 yards receiving and three touchdowns over the course of four games.

We’ll have more regarding a new deal for Beckham as the news is available.
