Odell Beckham Trade Before or During 2018 NFL Draft Wouldn't Shock Adam Schefter

ESPN's Adam Schefter added credence to trade speculation involving New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. on Tuesday.

Appearing on ESPN's Golic and Wingo, Schefter said, "I would not be surprised if we see an Odell Beckham trade on or before the NFL draft."

Beckham is set to enter the final year of his contract.

On Monday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Beckham won't participate in team activities until he has a new contract.

There have also been rumblings that OBJ could be on the trade block, although NFL Network's Kimberly Jones reported Monday that a source said a deal involving Beckham "probably won't happen."

Separate ankle injuries limited the 25-year-old wideout to four games last year.

In the three seasons before that, however, Beckham was one of the NFL's best, most consistent pass-catchers.

He made the Pro Bowl in each of his first three campaigns and never finished with fewer than 90 receptions, 1,300 yards or 10 touchdowns.

New York went just 3-13 in 2017 and was less explosive without Beckham in the fold.

OBJ stands to be the NFL's highest-paid receiver when he gets his new contract, but concerns exist regarding some of his antics, as he has been fined on multiple occasions for on-field actions.

Also, a recent video surfaced showing Beckham holding what looked to be a brown cigarette while a female companion handled a white substance with a credit card.

While the Giants may have reservations about giving Beckham a lucrative, long-term deal because of those things, there are teams that would pay for his immense talent.

Regardless of where Beckham ends up in 2018 and beyond, his production demands that a huge contract is in his future.
