The Giants will receive Cleveland’s No. 17 overall pick and their second third-round pick (No. 95 overall) in this April’s draft along with safety Jabrill Peppers.

Beckham became the fastest wideout in NFL history to reach both the 200 career catch milestone and 4,000 career receiving yards. The three-time Pro Bowler has amassed 390 career catches for 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns and was the 2014 Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Just talked to Odell Beckham Jr, who said he had a “brief” convo w/Dave Gettleman. “At this point I have no idea what to think. I’m trying to process it right now.” Said leaving #NYG is “bittersweet, but it is what it is. It’s life.”
