For the second half of the season, some teams are trying to convinve Odell Beckham Jr. to help them get to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are one of those, but the wide receiver has set an exorbitant deal request that might scare Dallas in their search to sign him.
It is known that Odell Beckham Jr. is still one of the best receivers available. The 30-year-old is recovering from a torn ACL and is set to return soon, but only if a Super Bowl contendant tries to sign him.
This year is different for the Cowboys. Dallas is seen as a very solid team for this campaign and wants to sign OBJin order to increase their odds, but the wide receiver has an special request to make a deal with any team.
Odell Beckham Jr. wants a huge deal to sign with any NFL team
The rumors have talked about the possibility of Odell Beckham Jr. returning before the year ends. He is in the final stage of his torn ACL recovery and wants to play football again, but he has some big requests to sign with any team.
According to Sports Illustrated, Odell Beckham Jr. wants $20 million per year in order to play. Also, the wide receiver is looking for a team that has good odds to win the Super Bowl.
If OBJ gets his $20 million, he would become the 15th best paid wide receiver in the NFL, tied with Chris Goodwin (Buccaneers), Amari Cooper (Browns) and Mike Williams (Chargers); and above Brandin Cooks (Texans).
This could scare the Cowboys a lot. Of course Odell Beckham Jr. is a top wide receiver, but he is recovering from a tough injury and it is uncertain if he will return at his best. But if he does, he could certainly be the piece Dallas need to get to the Super Bowl.
