Odell Beckham Jr. Trade Rumors: 'Exorbitant' Price Led to Rams Passing on Deal

The Los Angeles Rams reportedly had interest in trading for New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., but they weren't willing to pay the high price tag.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Rams considered the compensation to acquire OBJ combined with his upcoming contract extension to be "exorbitant," which yielded no serious conversations.

Instead, L.A. traded the No. 23 overall pick in the 2018 draft and a sixth-rounder to the New England Patriots for wideout Brandin Cooks and a 2018 fourth-round pick.
