OBJ reportedly lowers asking price to $15 mil per year

[AFJF]

Worth it or not?


From Albert Breer Column:

Aaron Rodgers trade should happen soon due to the GMs involved - Sports Illustrated

Word before his appearance at the Arizona Biltmore on Tuesday was that Odell Beckham Jr. was looking for something in the neighborhood of $15 million per year. That’s down from where he was previously, so I do think there’s room for negotiation here, and I do think showing up at the hotel where the owners’ meetings were taking place was a savvy move from a business standpoint.

if we get rid of Corey Davis then yes sign him, worth the shot.

[Scott Dierking]

Wait one second here, players demands can actually come done from what they were reported to be?  Novel.

[Larz]

He’s a classic 1 year incentive deal guy.
 

That money should go to a C and a DT. If he’s still there in July I’d make him an offer but not before the trenches are built 

[dbatesman]

[RoadFan]

How generous of him…

[RedBeardedSavage]

Would rather just keep Corey Davis.

[Green Truth]

He will not get 15 million from any team unless they are desperate. It will be at most 10 million.  He has not played in over a year coming off a second straight ACL to the same knee.

I'm lowering my response to his demands from "Go f*ck yourself" to just "F*ck yourself"

this guy was definitely a Jets fan!

[GangGreened]

Nah, combined with the element that he’s kind of a diva, I don’t think it’s really worth it at that price.

No. He's not. If you want to gamble you can definitely get better value elsewhere. 

[Smashmouth]

First of all he most likely never said any of that. Just like he didn't say he wanted 20 mil per. These reporters are totally out of control.

If JD can get him on the cheap I think he would be fine   I think these guys will be all in for a SB with Rodgers at the helm.  Key factor Rodgers can handle the WR room just fine and have no problem spreading the ball around

Nope. Too much.

[JoeNamathsFurCoat]

By the time he sets foot on an NFL field again, he will not have played football in 19 months.

[undertow]

Honestly he's worth about 5 because he's been hurt for two years and his last 1000 yard season is now 4 years ago but because he's OBJ someone will give him 10....15 is just delusional.

This going to be like one of those Pawn Stars Negotiations. "I'd like 15 million", "8.2, highest I can go", "How about 10?", "haha, how about 7?", "8.2 sounds great!"

I’d give him 8-10 that could become 15 if he hits a handful of incentives. 

[slats]

 How low can he go? 

[KRL]

WAY too much $$$.  He brings way too much drama and "divaness" to the WR position and I 

don't want that around Garrett Wilson.  If he wants to be here take a low base salary with a

ton of incentives

[playtowinthegame]

He'll catch 8 touchdowns from Rodgers.

I'm with you but think it will be a base of 8 with lofty but achievable incentives that get him to 12.

Still think he's replacing Corey for right around same cost which is fine by me! 

[BurntDice]

What do you mean lowers to 15? He said he never asked for 20, just that 4 is too low. 
 

Im guessing he’ll be around 6 + incentives that can reach 10ish 

[GreenFish]

Too much money. I would rather keep Davis if that’s his price. Our running game with a good OL and Lazard/Davis blocking would be special. Just wont be as dynamic passing and we will relay too much on Wilson.

I still prefer OBJ to Davis but not at that price. Something more around $8-10M makes more sense.

I'm ok with $1 million per TD

Never give a crazy man production incentives.  
 

Just image the tantrum he throws because he isn’t being targeted enough to meet them? 

[Barry McCockinner]

shameful the owners are colluding against him

[Bobby816]

Incentive deal and I'm in

Yeah, when he figured out no one was going to give him his original asking price. That mensa member, Lamar, should give that a try.

[shawn306]

Nope

obj... when the phone isn't ringing...
