The New York Giants shocked their fan base on Tuesday evening when they traded three-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to the Cleveland Browns for safety Jabrill Peppers, and the Browns first-round (17th overall) and third-round (95th overall) picks.
There have been rumors swirling for months that the Giants were looking to trade Beckham. Those rumors were dismissed after general manager Dave Gettleman claimed the organization didn’t sign him to trade him.
But for whatever reason, Gettleman went back on his word and made the blockbuster trade on Tuesday.
