Cocky Odell Beckham: There are players in the NFL who should make what NBA stars do



Odell Beckham continues to whine that's he's under paid.
  That may be true, but I think he's setting himself up for a painful season.  Although he's a great talent, character-wise, he acts like a jerk!  And when things go south, those types of guys crumble under the New York pressure (See Matt Harvey).  Beckham needs to worry about catching touchdown passes because nobody cares if he feels he's underpaid.  
CBS Sports reports OdellBeckham Jr. is one of the league's most dynamic players, and it's reasonable to think that his compensation should reflect that.

As it stands, the Giants' wide receiver is set to make $1.8 million in 2017. In terms of average annual salary among wideouts, that ranks 75th (!!!), according to Spotrac.com. By comparison, Antonio Brown earns $17 million a year, on average, followed by A.J. Green ($15 million), Julio Jones ($14.2 million) and Dez Bryant ($14 million). 

And while Beckham certainly deserves to make Antonio Brown money, he wants to be the highest paid player in the league, which includes franchise quarterbacks.
