Day two the free agent negotiating window saw the second elite receiver moved in a trade. The Giants are shipping Odell Beckham Jr to Cleveland for a haul which includes the 17th overall pick in April’s draft, one of the Browns’ third round picks, and safety Jabrill Peppers.
Naturally this trade instantly drew comparisons to the one the Raiders made with the Steelers to acquire Antonio Brown. There are some important differences to note.
When looking at the sheer trade compensation, Raiders fans are feeling pretty stoked that their team just nabbed Antonio Brown for a third and a fifth compared to a first and third for Beckham.
