Odell Beckham Jr.

Since his sudden rise to stardom, Odell has consistently received criticism from the media and fans over his antics on and off the field.  And I personally believe that it has all been very unfortunate and unfair.  Odell is one of the best wide receivers in the game.  He's definitely in the top three. I'll admit, Odell did have some on the field anger issues his rookie season, but I think he's gotten better at handling his emotions.  However, I don't understand why when Beckham shows his emotions, he's considered a distraction, but when Brady shows the same fire on the field it's seen as someone who is passionate about the game and just wants to win....  It's a double standard that I believe has something to do with the perception of wide receivers as "divas"' and quite frankly because he's black.  Other black players who have been in a similar situation regardless of the position they play have had to deal with this double standard.
The treatment negative attention Odell gets from the media is ridiculous, and it's even gotten to a point where some fans and media personalities truly believe the giants should trade him...............lol......that's all I have to say about that idea. When Mara ridiculed Beckham for his doggy pee celebration I thought that was stupid and so was the penalty for it.  I didn't think it was a big deal.

 If the giants were to trade him,  it would be the dumbest trade in giants' history.
