My bet is Beckham going to the Packers. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 So by rule he would be put on the waiver wire. What's to stop the Lions from claiming him? If Beckham was disgruntled in Cleveland will be happier on the teams with the highest waiver priority? I just don't understand what he is hoping for.

A player with 4 or less years is placed on the Waiver Wire and the Waiver order has to be followed. Players with more than 4 years are released and able to sign with anyone. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) I doubt anyone puts a claim in for him on Waivers. They'd have to pick up his hefty contract and unless it's a team he wants to go to - good chance he pulls a Dri Archer and doesn't report. I'd bet his agent is putting that out there. My guess is he goes to New Orleans or Las Vegas. New Orleans was trying to swing a trade for him at the deadline (boy does Cleveland look dumb for not pulling the trigger on that now), they have a big hole since Michael Thomas is out for the year, and is New Orleans, LA. Las Vegas didn't have a great WR core before the Henry Ruggs tragedy happened, is a contender this year, and is Las Vegas, NV.

Diggs was said to have character problems and Diggs even admitted some of it. OBJ would be a great addition for a small price. I wouldn't have traded for him, but as a free agent sure. He's still getting open. Edited November 5, 2021 by Buffalo_Stampede 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihilarian Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 He and his father posted videos that show him wide open and Baker Mayfield refuses to throw to him. Basically why he is disgruntled. The thing is... the Browns use a timing scheme where a receiver needs to be at a certain spot on the field at a particular time...and Beckham never is. Meanwhile blaming the QB for not getting him the ball more often. Stevie Johnson anyone? No thanks... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckham has been a problem almost constantly. He doesn’t see how the browns will take him to the promised land, so he manufactured his release. Browns and him are altering his contract to give the browns relief when released. Does that mean it will be backloaded and continues to be a tough contract for someone to grab him on waivers? If he does become a UFA, I see him looking at a team that has the chance to go all the way. Rams, tb?. Don’t see him as a fit for the Bills. Would rather not have him and his issues on this team.

The Bills have enough talent at the WR position and certainly don't need a head case disrupting the locker room. Even his teammates slam him. “(Beckham) does nothing. He talks to no one.

machine gun kelly Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 OBJ has been a problem since he entered the league. A high 1st RD pick, very productive at the Giants and they still moved on. Now a team desperate for the playoffs and considering moving on. He’s the problem. I don’t see McBeane wanting any part of adding to their deepest position group. He’d have to do an incentive laden deal (as they have no money) but New Orleans makes a lot of sense. No one thought the Saints would only have two losses at this point. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns passing game is terrible. He might be part of that but it's mostly Mayfield from what I see. With the Giants it was the same thing. Any OBJ deal with the Bills would be half a season. He isn't going to act up. Edited November 5, 2021 by Buffalo_Stampede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigduke6 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) sucks for the Browns, most likely having to continue paying that contract, while OBJ hand picks another team and gets another contract, their own fault tho tbh. i wouldnt have touched OBJ back when they did. i wouldnt want him anywhere near the Bills even if he played for free.

They said they changed up his contract. Maybe he helped the Browns out so he can be released. Well our entire WR group was hurt in the playoffs last year. We love 3 and 4 wide.

BuffaloBillyG Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I don't think he will get claimed on waivers. Any team had the chance to throw a 2022 7th at the Browns to make sure they got him and they didn't. No one is going to want a player with that little production at that cost. That said if he does clear waivers the Saints did show interest so that would be a guess. Seems like the kind of move the Chiefs would make as well. Also the Raiders losing Ruggs would make sense. As for as a surprise team...I could see the 49ers also taking a stab at him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
