No trade partners for Djax or OBJ? Really?

Are we finally, blessedly, coming to the end of the diva wide receiver era?

I hope so.

Basically no one has cap for OBJ, so the Browns would have to pay most of his $15 million salary, which is probably a factor. Plus, I looked around and I legit only found GB as a partner that makes sense for everyone and maybe Rams if they have more draft picks laying around.

What exactly are the Browns doing that is wrong? He's there and he's playing. His contract is very hard to trade.

Honestly, I don't think they're doing much wrong? OBJ just clearly isn't working out there and as you said he's hard to trade. But he's gonna get cut at the end of the season and everyone will move on to greener pastures.

The first tweet is the first "report" that he himself wants out. But man it would've been funny to see him go to a Trevor Siemien offense where he probably would've put up big numbers.

The CDC uses "immunization / immunized" interchangeably with vaccinated it's not like this is a reporting gaffe by all of the NFL media. It's more likely that Kalli's right and he had it before and was riding that "natural immunization" train that wasn't a big thing back in August.

Absolutely. I think Rodgers was banking on no one thinking twice about what he said. And now he can pull a bullshit "but I never lied" kind of thing. It's all on him, I don't blame any reporter.

Target shares for WRs go way down in his offenses. Big name WRs are not a fan.

Look at the passing charts, like the ones with the dots. Almost everything is between the numbers and within 10 yards of the LOS, he does take a few deep shots but I assume most of that is big PA shots.



This was his passing chart from last season, when healthy. He definitely prefers outside throws vs middle ones.

Rumors were it would've been a late pick AND the Browns would eat salary. So I'm guessing they hope he's willing to just give back some money to gain his freedom. They'd probably prefer the cap over the late pick.

Ches Neckbeard posted:

Cutting him and eating a cap hit mid season is dumb. Just get a sandwich and eat the cap hit. We can't be planning to pay mayfield right now and Ward is not worth top 10 corner money.

cap space can roll over. They need to at least pay Teller, not to mention whoever else is free.

Why would Beckham agree to a reduced salary? There seems like no benefit to him.

Did the Browns only agree to release him if he renegotiated his salary? Is this to reduce their dead cap number?

Based on the reports, it was contingent. If they were on the hook for his full salary no matter what, they'd rather he didn't play for a competitor. So he had to cut it down to get released, but hes hoping it's still big enough that no one will claim him.

Can't he just tell teams that potentially could claim him, such as the Lions, that he won't play for them if they claim him? I feel like some other players have manipulated the waver wire in some way like this in the past.

He could. But they lose nothing by trying to claim him and he loses playing time if he forces them to re-waive him.

So he's going unclaimed. I don't remember a situation quite like this one, with this kind of deal. But it basically replicates him getting a small buyout before the trade deadline.
