Baker Mayfield: Browns Must Force Feed Odell Beckham Jr.
5 years agoCleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield thinks the team needs to find more ways to get wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. the ball and to "format things to get him the ball and force feed him early on" in games. Beckham acknowledged recently that his chemistry with Mayfield is still a work-in-progress, and the star wideout is being targeted fewer than ever before in his career. Opposing defenses are double-teaming OBJ more often, which has made it difficult for Mayfield to get his star receiver going. It won't get any easier in Week 10 against the Bills, where stud cornerback Tre'Davious White is expected to shadow Beckham. Fantasy owners are waiting patiently for OBJ to break out in his first year in Cleveland. For now, continue to treat him as a WR2.
