Peter King: Browns-Giants talks over Beckham only started the morning of the trade

In this week’s “Football Morning in America,” Peter King had a lot of big-headline topics to cover, leading off with the trade between the Cleveland Browns and the New York Giants. Here is a summary of what King’s sources are telling him:

  • The Giants didn’t have a strong interest in trading Beckham, prior to last week. GM Dave Gettleman only reached out to one team: the Buffalo Bills. That was after he had heard the Bills had missed out on WR Antonio Brown, so he was trying to dangle the carrot out there to see how desperate Buffalo might be in terms of compensation.
