I think OBJ will sign with the Cowboys

He's supposed to make a decision this week, he's finished visiting with all three teams, the Cowboys, Bills, and Giants, but he seems to be getting very chummy with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys, and he even went to a Dallas Mavericks game. If the Cowboys sign him, they're going to be loaded.
Odell Beckham Jr. Gave Big Hint About Free Agency Decision
Free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. said "It's a good possibility" when asked ESPN's Tim MacMahon about the Dallas Cowboys' chances of signing him during his two-day visit with the team.
Beckham underwent a physical at the Cowboys' facility, met with owner Jerry Jones and attended the Dallas Mavericks' game against the Phoenix Suns at American Airlines Center with Cowboys stars Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs Monday night, where he told MacMahon about the team's favorable chances.
Quarterback Dak Prescott and running back Ezekiel Elliott are also reported to have made pitches to Beckham amid his reported interest in joining the Cowboys.
The two-day visit with the Cowboys will conclude on Tuesday (December 6), with Beckham having now met with all three of the teams listed as his potential options, ESPN reports.
Beckham had previously visited the Buffalo Bills and the New York Giants, his original NFL team, following reports that he'd narrowed down his free agency options.

And you know how Jerry Jones is, he usually gets what he wants, once he sinks his teeth into you, it's over.
I'm surprised he isn't wanting to go to the Bills above all other teams, Dallas would be a good spot though
he was at the Mavericks game last night and the entire arena was chanting OBJ
even Cubes was doing a little recruiting
I have always been a harsh critic of Dak. He still is an inaccurate QB and I feel that this will always hold the team back with him starting. The Cowboy's offensive pace has more to do with the stellar play of the offensive skill players across the board and an offensive line that is getting better. Getting OBJ at this juncture probably means committing to multiple years. But it is this year they should be thinking about. It is not every year that the Cowboys are in it. And this deal, if done by the Cowboys, could very well be a mistake. I know that this opinion flies in the face of common opinion.
Yes sir, many great reasons for OBJ to go to Dallas, good food, happening town, the best owner in the NFL. But the real reason he's going to the Cowboys is quite simple.
Cowboys already have Jerry Jones, we don't need another distraction. What is needed is to find some depth at corner with the loss of Anthony Brown. But Jerry likes the attention and shiny things so he will likely take his eye off the prize and sign OBJ. As thisistheshow stated first above, this possible signing of OBJ will be a big mistake.
Show I am a diehard Cowboys fan but you nailed it with your post including the inaccuracy.
skipper wants this to happen
....
I wouldn't be surprised if they give him a contract for the rest of this year, next year, and a 3rd year player's option. Or even something more egregious.
They need to add someone to the secondary.
I read awhile back that Von Miller said OBJ would sign with the Bills. I think he said it would be by Nov.1. Don't know what happened there.
My take and I could be wrong. Just a lot of hype for a WR who loves to be in the spot light even if he isn’t playing.
He’s not 100% healthy and it will take 4-6 weeks for him to get into football shape.
He not going to be a difference maker like last year and maybe a nice decoy to take away double coverage elsewhere.
The Bills don’t like drawing attention to one player off the field and a distraction I. December and January is not their style.
If he goes to the Bills it will be quietly and if not good luck to him.
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
at this late point in the season he will need a month to learn some of the playbook and get into football shape. from the sounds of it, he is not ready to play yet anyways. i dont think he will be a big player this season even if he does sign. at least by the rumblings right now.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
will the contract be in cryptocurrency?
Good stuff! Please accept this Aaron Rodgers Christmas tree ornament as a token of appreciation for the humor, happy holidays!
If the Cowboys need another receiver and are busy chasing this jerk then why oh why did they let Amari Cooper go?? OBJ might be a bigger name but Cooper is clearly a better receiver.
