Looks like both will be available. Give Ben another target for his final season or let him ride out the season as is?

Odell is extremely overrated when he actually plays. He was on terrible Giant's teams that did nothing but pass the ball and played from behind.
That's the only reason his stats were so ballooned.

I dont believe Coach T, or Ben for that matter, wants to deal with receivers with challenging personality any longer...

If DeSean still has his speed, he might be worth a look. They aren't using Washington and haven't done anything with Miller. It's not that hard to learn to run some routes in a week and build from there. Both DeSean and OBJ, when healthy and giving it their all (which definitely doesn't happen on every play with either player), are better than Washington.

I don't care what the naysayers say. If it were me--- I'm going all in on OBJ.

Haden is a much better player after we saved him from Turdland!!!

It's a pipe dream but at least it's my pipe dream.

OBJ is in need of shoulder surgery. He's damaged goods. So he really is no good this year, and with Johnson, and Claypool young and on the rise, what do you think OBJ is going to do if we were to have him and he were healthy?

He's better than Washington and Ray Ray...

Cleveland improved after Beckham's injury last year and he's too much of a diva to be worth what he can bring to the field.

Desean actually looked decent for the rams when he played. not sure why he wasn't given more snaps. I would take him over odell

In the end, if Ben doesn't have time to throw the ball you could have 5 Jerry Rice players.......and still be disappointed with the end results.

How about since we are playing make-believe we bring in a top-tier OLman. Or maybe even 2 of them. :)

Yes to OBJ. No to Desean. OBJ is barely used since he got to Cleveland and he hasn’t really raised a fuss or throw people under the bus. He has done what is asked. They just don’t throw him the ball.

Desean on the other hand, wanted to be traded away from a legit Super Bowl contender just because he wants the ball more. He has no rings and his last playoff appearance was in 2015. He just wants stats. How can the Steelers, who just traded away Ingram for peanuts due to chemistry, possible sign a me first guy like Jackson?

I'll give you Ray Ray, but currently, with his shoulder issue, not better than Washington. And again, who's targets are you taking away for him or his dad to keep quiet? He's not going to be ok as the 3rd WR, and 4th option. EDIT: and I'm not taking targets away from Freiermuth for that matter either.

OBJ living off 1 or 2 plays and he’s afraid to get hit.

No thanks


Whether on the field or in a bar fight, the guy is a ******* moron and a wossy. Maybe we should bring his dad in for a visit............................

**** the both because if either was worth anything their respective teams wouldn't be making them available.

Why? Tell me why you want him on the team, I'd love to know.
