 For some reason it seems like we're approaching familiar territory with this one. Tell me if you heard this before Odell Beckham, Jr.. In his second year of his deal with his team is Apparently rumored to be on the trade block Now what I'm remembering and let me know if my memory is not serving me correctly because sometimes it doesn't But after Odell Beckham, Jr.. Signed that massive deal with the New York Giants that record-breaking deal He was in the second year of that deal and there were rumors about him possibly being traded And those rumors were flowing they were circulating in the GM get them and said no he ain't going anywhere. He's not Then what happened? He got traded to the Browns So then the Browns while in his stint with them This is his second year with them, but they gave him a little raise when he came on over They gave him a little raise. So now he's in his second year of his Browns contract and Now there are rumors floating around that the Browns are looking to trade Odell Beckham, Jr.. Let's see exactly where these rumors came from came from one Mike friend Francesa and he said I hear the Browns who are clueless are looking to trade Odell Beckham, Jr And he says they are asking for a lot. I don't often defend Beckham, but he isn't the problem So if you ask a lot of Browns fans some may agree some may disagree But if this is true if it's true that the Browns are really looking to move on from Odell Beckham, Jr.. If it's true, I Think it would make sense And I don't say that as a Ravens fan because I'm not one of those fans is like Oh, yeah, get all the competition out of the division. Every team needs to get worse. No I'm not on that But I guess they may feel like Odell Beckham, Jr. May be hindering Baker Mayfield because with Baker Mayfield He was looking like he was on an upward trend After that rookie season and he had thrown it look quite a bit amount of picks But he did still throw a good amount of touchdown. He broke the record the rookie record for most touchdowns by a rookie and He showed some again good decision-making He he was quick with it and It was looking like okay. This dude it this this is getting ready to be something and He had helped sort of reignite That Browns and Ravens rivalry because now it was the rivalry between Baker Mayfield and Lamar Jackson the two young quarterbacks in the AFC North So it was looking like okay, let's do Baker. He gonna be something number one overall pick but then The rich got richer Because the Browns While they had a lot of young talent around the team, they ended up acquiring one Odell Beckham, Jr. and A lot of people feel like and I saw it for myself this past Sunday in the game But a lot of people feel like with Odell Beckham, Jr. Baker Mayfield is almost force-feeding And of course you you definitely want to get your your big stars involved You want to get your your your big targets involved your primary wide receivers You want to keep those guys involved? You want to give them the opportunities to make plays? That's no doubt about that But at the same time You don't want to force it to them You want to spread the ball around now if they're open? Oh, do your thing But you as a quarterback, you don't want to feel like I I gotta go to him. I have to I I have no other choice And I'm not saying that Baker may feel feel. I mean, yeah Baker may feel feels like that But at the same time In the game this past Sunday against the Ravens. It looked like that And I saw some crazy crazy crazy stat a couple of days ago I forget what the exact numbers are But it was saying how with Odell Beckham, Jr In the majority of his games as a brown. He has not eclipsed the 100-yard mark I forgot exactly what the stat was But somebody in the somebody will know exactly what I'm talking about and I'm sure y'all will be able to clear that right up Exactly what that stat is But I know with a lot of browns fans a lot of them are sort of on the fence With Odell Beckham, Jr. And you know something that's funny. I always say that timing is everything. Shout out to my guy Joe Nubo Because I was just on my youtube subscriptions and I just saw my guy Joe Nubo He just dropped a video talking about how Odell Beckham, Jr. Is not an afc north receiver Now what he meant by that Was that he doesn't really have the qualities of an afc north receiver But If the rumors are true and they end up coming to fruition Then what my guy Joe Nubo said could end up being facts. It could be that Odell Beckham, Jr Will no longer be an afc north wide receiver But we'll just have to see what happens with that. Y'all make sure y'all check out my guy Joe Nubo. Shout out to him, man But this This would be wild man This would be crazy because It would show that And I mean the browns they've already shown this especially last year That just because you have a super talented team It doesn't always translate on the field because if you you have to have chemistry Chemistry is so important, man And I know a lot of us as football fans We can get so caught up in the big names this guy that guy this guy that guy want him on my team I want this guy all my favorite team. I want him him him him You want everybody And the browns they they went out and did that last year. They got everybody super talented team But again, it didn't translate It didn't translate And if the rumors are true About the browns wanting to trade one Odell Beckham, Jr. If those rumors are true Then I think it would really show that they are really really really trying to give baka mayfield one last shot at this thing One last and they really want to see like baka Come on, man. We we want to believe in you. We took you with the number one overall pick We're trying to get this thing done So I think the browns wanted to be to where they have no excuses With baka mayfield and they can make a clear cut decision on baka mayfield During this season or even after this season on what it's going to be moving forward Now if they make a decision on him during the season, then that won't be a good decision for baka mayfield But with baka, um, I just it because you have you're under new leadership You're under new front office. You're under new gm new coach And with you being under new gm and a new coach They if they didn't draft you They did not draft you You are not on your second contract. You're still on your first contract So even though number one overall pick first round draft pick been the starter for the browns the past couple years Even though all that is true You're not safe You you are not safe And especially in this day and age of the NFL Teams are moving on faster than ever even from first round draft picks They will get rid of you if they feel like they're done with you. They will get rid of you in a heartbeat Even if Somebody's on a second or third contract even if somebody's on a lucrative deal They will get rid of you two examples of that that I can think of off the top of my head First round draft pick josh josh rosin. I think he was a number 10 overall pick traded the following year traded away the following year And then a year after that he ended up getting cut Now he's on a practice squad For the box. He's on a practice squad number number 10 overall pick I went like this, but I was saying first round pick, but he's number 10 overall, but y'all get it, but number 10 overall pick Gets traded a year later Then gets cut a year later. Then he's on a practice squad And as far as the lucrative deal, I mean we talked about Odell Beckham, Jr How he got traded in the second year of his lucrative deal. You look at Earl Thomas Could stay right in the afc north you look at Earl Thomas in the second year of a 50 a four year 55 million dollar deal in the second year of it Raven said, you know what? Nope. We're done So my point is that a player of odell beckham jr's caliber a player with odell beckham jr's salary It it doesn't guarantee just because he has that high salary It does not guarantee that he remains with his team as we've seen before but back to baker mayfield With him even being the number one overall pick That don't mean he's safe That doesn't mean anything If a new head coach if a new gm feel like a you ain't performing up to our standards And you know what we're gonna go in a different direction with somebody that fits more our style That's somebody that fits more our scheme That's somebody who we feel like can't get the job done a lot better They'll move on we've seen it before and we'll see it again Not necessarily what baker may feel the jury's still out, but we'll see it with other players as well So We'll see how this whole thing ends up how the whole thing turns out and That'll be to help me So team keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love y'all and like odell beckham jr could soon be i'm out
