Despite Odell Beckham Jr. narrowing down his choices to five NFL teams that he may sign with, his ex-New York Giants teammate says there are only two choices he should think about, and one of them is an NFL East rival.
Victor Cruz says one of the teams Beckham should think about signing with is the Dallas Cowboys.
“The best landing spot, I think, for Odell is two places. One, Green Bay,” Cruz said. “The second team, I think, is the Dallas Cowboys. It pains me to say that.”
Beckham has already expressed interest in the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers has discussed the pair playing with each other but the team that may suit him the most is the Cowboys.
The Cowboys need a No. 2 receiver since they traded Amari Cooper to Cleveland and Michael Gallup is just returning from injury. It would only be fitting that Beckham could come in and help the Cowboys make the playoffs.
Despite that, it looks as if he is leaning toward joining the Packers. The upside of Beckham joining the Packers is he gets to play with NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers, whom he already seems to have a good relationship with.
But don’t count out the Cowboys. Jerry Jones may have a trick or two up his sleeve that could land Beckham in a Dallas uniform.
