New York tabloids, sports talk radio react to Giants trading Odell Beckham Jr. image

Odell Beckham Jr.'s time in New York is over. The city's media had the last word about his departure.

The New York Daily News, one of the Big Apple news sources known for having a boisterous back page, questioned the Giants' decision-making, a sentiment echoed by several of the team's fans.

The seemingly light return for Beckham has been one of the more talked-about aspects of the trade, and the NYDN opted to go that route rather than taking a parting shot at the newest Browns wide receiver.

OBJ TO BROWNS:
Grading the trade | Cleveland offense can be one of AFC's best

The always-catchy New York Post stuck to three-letter acronyms. Giants fans have probably uttered "OMG OBJ" under more positive circumstances in the past.

Longtime New York sports talk radio host Mike Francesa didn't hide his feelings about Beckham, lauding the Giants and believing the trade would help the team in the long run. Unsurprisingly, he was ratio'd multiple times.

Francesa also sarcastically wished the Browns good luck, although it's tough to see that fazing Cleveland general manager John Dorsey at all.
