The NFL season is just about a quarter of the way over and there are still several quality free agents that remain unsigned. The Packers have dipped into free agency quite a few times over the last few years. This year remained no different as they went out and signed WR Sammy Watkins. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t go out and sign one more, right? It turns out that one free agent has been drooling over the idea of coming to Green Bay. Pro Bowl WR Odell Beckham Jr. wants to play with Aaron Rodgers, and he is making it known.

While it remains to be seen what type of contract Odell Beckham would command, he would surely be a nice addition to Green Bay. The emergence of Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs has been a nice surprise, but having a savvy veteran like OBJ would be huge.
How would Odell Beckham Fit In Green Bay?
With Beckham not being ready until mid-season most likely, he is a candidate for a trade deadline type of signing. The Packers could add him in time for the stretch run before the playoffs. It is also important to remember that the Packers were interested in Beckham last season before he chose to sign with the Rams.
If the Packers can find a way to bring him in to play for them this season, the offense would add a new level because of the Louisiana native’s ability to stretch the field. Aaron Rodgers and Beckham certainly have a relationship off the field and could form an elite connection on the field. Odell Beckham would have a real chance of winning back-to-back Super Bowls with two different teams. It would be a win-win move for both parties.
