Things never clicked between Odell Beckham Jr. and Baker Mayfield in Cleveland. But with a quarterback of Russell Wilson’s caliber, perhaps we’d be seeing the Odell of old in Seattle.

The Seahawks already have a stacked wide receiver room consisting of Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf. But with Super Bowl contenders, you simply cannot have too many weapons.

Russell Wilson has made it clear that he feels a little slighted by the Seahawks’ brass in recent years, and what better way to keep him happy than to go out and get him a star receiver?

Don’t be surprised if Odell Beckham Jr. is wearing a Seahawks uniform in the near future.
