Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said at the NFL owners meetings that the Dolphins made an offer to free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., but "business takes time." There remains a gap in the financials on both sides, but the door remains very much open if Beckham decides he wants to sign with Miami in 2024. The 31-year-old veteran wideout had a good visit with the team last Thursday, but the two sides weren't able to work something out. OBJ, who is no longer in peak form after several serious lower-body injuries, caught only 35 passes for 565 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games with the Baltimore Ravens in 2023. If he were to land in South Beach, he'd likely serve as the No. 3 behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, leaving him limited deep opportunities down the field.

The Carolina Panthers acquired wide receiver Diontae Johnson and pick No. 240 overall in this year's NFL draft from the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday in exchange for cornerback Donte Jackson and pick No. 178 overall in this year's draft, according to sources. The move leaves the Steelers dangerously thin at the receiver position, with George Pickens and Calvin Austin III as the team's top two wideouts with Johnson gone. Johnson, 27, finished last year with a career-low 51 catches for 717 yards and five touchdowns. He'll move to a Panthers offense desperately seeking playmakers and should be one of quarterback Bryce Young's top targets, other than veteran Adam Thielen. Johnson's chances for a fantasy rebound in 2024 don't look great in Carolina, but perhaps he can develop some nice chemistry with Young and feed off volume.
