Odell Beckham Jr. Trade Rumors: NFC Team Rejected Giants' 2 1st-Round Picks Offer

Scott PolacekApr 8, 2018

The New York Giants reportedly asked for two first-round picks in a potential trade involving wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. but were turned down.

Michael Silver of NFL.com reported the news by citing a "high-ranking executive of an NFC team."

This comes after Ralph Vacchiano of SNY cited a source who said it was "highly unlikely" the Giants would move the wide receiver.

The mere idea of trading Beckham would have turned plenty of heads not long ago. However, the talented wideout played just four games last season because of an ankle injury. What's more, Vacchiano suggested the Giants are "near their breaking point with Beckham and these nuisance controversies" after he was shown in a video with a suspicious cigarette.

Team president John Mara even said, "I wouldn't say anyone's untouchable" when asked whether the team could move Beckham this offseason at the league's owners' meetings, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News.

Ian Rapoport of NFL.com also reported the receiver "will not set foot on a field without a new contract extension."

The 2018 campaign is set to be the last of Beckham's deal after the Giants exercised his fifth-year option worth just less than $8.5 million, per Spotrac.

Even with the injury concerns, there is no questioning Beckham's ability. He was a Pro Bowler in each of his first three seasons and had more than 1,300 receiving yards and at least 10 touchdowns in all of those years.

He is also only 25 and figures to have a number of impressive seasons in the near future if he remains healthy.

Still, at least one team reportedly didn't think he was worth two first-round picks.
