ORLANDO, Fla. -- Odell Beckham Jr. openly hoped during the 2017 NFL season that he would become the highest-paid player in the league, not simply the highest-paid wide receiver.
That was never going to happen, but with the receiver market spiking during the current free-agency period, the price for Beckham could be high enough for the New York Giants' new leadership to ask themselves a pivotal question.
What could the Giants get for Beckham if they sought to trade him as Beckham heads into the final season of his rookie contract? I posed that question to executives before and after arriving at the NFL owners meetings this weekend. Three proposals rose to the top, and after hearing what Giants owner John Mara told reporters at the owners meetings Sunday, the subject is not as far-fetched as it once would have seemed.
"We're certainly not shopping him," Mara said. "Again, when you're coming off a season when you're 3-13 and played as poorly as we played, I wouldn't say anyone is untouchable."
