Will the Cleveland Browns do the unthinkable and move on Odell Beckham Jr.?
On the surface this seems like a stupid question. Will the Cleveland Browns move on from Odell Beckham Jr.? No. Of course not. Beckham is one of the best players in the league. It would be foolish to do such a thing. After examining things a bit more closely, it is doesn’t seem so stupid.
Any decision to part ways with Odell Beckham Jr. would not be due to Adam Henry leaving the team. It would not be because of the new regime’s evaluation of the roster. It is not because of Beckham’s arrest warrant. It is the off the field issues combined with what happened during games which could lead them to think this way. The watch, the shoes, the pants, the visor, etc. Everything by itself does not seem like cause to trade the player. When added together, it is a much different story.
The reality is that Jimmy Haslam, Paul DePodesta, Kevin Stefanski, and their next general manager could decide that the team would be better off without him. This group could decide that they are better of moving on from someone who is a distraction to the team.
The Browns are operating in a manner that is going to evaluate the pros and cons of each and every player no matter how talented they are. It is very possible that they decide that there are more cons than pros and move on from the superstar wide receiver.
