Free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. appears to be moving on from the Baltimore Ravens. The veteran wideout was already a free agent, but the possibility of him returning to Baltimore appears to be over. Beckham recently made a social media post thanking the fanbase of Baltimore. The 31-year-old is not the same receiver he was in his prime, but can still contribute at a high level. He has finished with over 500 receiving yards in each of his last two seasons. There should still be organizations out there looking to add a player of Beckham's caliber, but it seems his time in Baltimore is over.

Free-agent running back Saquon Barkley is signing with the Philadelphia Eagles on a three-year, $37.75 million deal. The deal includes $26 million in guaranteed money and has an additional $9 million available in incentives. After a 2018 rookie season that saw the former Penn State star go for over 2,000 yards from scrimmage and 15 touchdowns, he has struggled to stay healthy over a chunk of the next five years of his career. He missed 21 games from 2019 to 2021. He bounced back in 2022 with 1,312 rushing yards but regressed to 962 yards in 14 games in 2023. However, the Eagles believe in him as a game-changing running back, as his average salary ($12.58 million) ranks only below Christian McCaffrey, Alvin Kamara, and Jonathan Taylor. Although the Eagles' offensive line could take a hit after the retirement of Jason Kelce, Barkley should be playing behind the best offensive line of his career in 2024. He will have an immediate high-end RB1 upside in fantasy football.
