There’s never a dull moment in New York as the Giants and Odell Beckham Jr. are in a public dispute. The Buffalo Bills should sneak in and capitalize.

Things are getting interesting in New York. The Giants are attracting attention by saying Odell Beckham Jr. is not “untouchable.” They are not openly shopping him, but I’d argue that the writing is on the wall.

The new regime is in (GM- Dave Gettleman and HC- Pat Shurmur) and they are taking a no-nonsense approach. Beckham Jr. has been in the news recently for all the wrong reasons, on and off the field. He has recently come out and said that he wouldn’t play a snap until he gets a new contract.

Beckham Jr. will most likely still be on the Giants at the start of the 2018 season, but the battle between him and management will continue.

I’m not Sherlock Holmes…. But I’d say a change is coming. He will either reconsider his contract issues and change his tune or he will be traded.

If he is traded, there will be a long list of teams fighting for his services. The Bills should take a long look at his track record before rejecting the notion.

Beckham Jr. is the most polarizing player in the NFL. It seems like everyone has an opinion about him, whether it is good or bad. I believe he is the best young receiver in the game. Those kinds of players aren’t traded often so the Bills must take a shot.

Before I tell you why the organization should make an offer, let’s look at the reasons people are saying not to.
