Dallas probably stopped themselves from getting OBJ after leaking medical info about his knee (and further expressing concerns saying they don’t think he’ll be ready to play this year). https://dailysnark.com/2022/12/06/odell-beckham-jr-leaves-dallas-without-deal-after-cowboys-leak-medical-info-about-his-knee/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No results being made public yet of his MRI but he was a limited participant in yesterday's practice, so that seems to be a good sign. I'd only entertain the idea of adding him IF either Brown or Smith got injured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard on one of the podcasts that OBJ had a should sprain of this sort, really bad 3rd degree whatever and he didn't miss a game. Will it degrade Quez' effectiveness, likely yes, but he can probably play through it if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND IF that injury was severe enough that they would be out for at least several weeks.

eaglesfan0075 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 One could point to his time in New York and Cleveland and decide he's not worth potentially disrupting locker room chemistry. However, he was able to contribute to the Rams Super Bowl win and didn't make a big stink about being second fiddle to Cooper Kupp. On the fence regarding this one. The fact that the Eagles have a hole at TE with Dallas Goedert on IR and with Quez Watkins now hurt, it might not be a bad idea to at least explore the possibility of bringing him in, especially with the Cowboys and Giants linked to signing him. The Cowboys publicly have made it known they are concerned about his health, but a reunion with the Giants isn't out of the realm of possibility. Both of these division rivals are also in the mix for playoff spots, so bringing in OBJ to prevent a rival from benefitting could be worth it.

Vee Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Why would anyone think OBJ would be a good idea here in Philly? From a chemistry point of view? He's been shown the door everywhere he's been. From a needs point of view? WR is not a need right now...at all. From a salary point of view? Why would we waste valuable salary cap space on OBJ when there are so many other positions that will need help? I mean, seriously, how does that make any sense at all?

In theory how exciting would it be to have OBJ added to this offense. He's a really good WR and he would be the 3rd best on this team. That's exciting in theory. But you're right about the whole chemistry thing. Although I don't think he's as bad as some make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vee Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Giants dumped him at the peak of his young career. For a first and a third. That was around the time they drafted Saquon. Doesn't make sense to dump a Top 5 WR at that point in the team's plans. Three years later, the hapless Browns dump him too. Still a great WR for a team that needed one. I guess he may not be as bad as some make out, but geez, that's a lot of moving around for a top talent in this league... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word is he won't be ready to play until the play offs and wants a deal for next season too, or the other take floating around is he might wait for 2023 Free Agency. The Cowboys are favourites to sign him as it stands. I think a few teams might kick the tyres if he waits for next year but it's hard to see a guy knocking on the door of 31 coming off a full years absence with an ACL being that popular an option. He was OK for the Rams but hardly earth shattering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
