Philthy Jawn Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I think it's pretty clear that we need to use our upcoming first-round pick--which should be in the top five-on a wide receiver. I know the near-consensus is a defensive player, but it looks like Reagor may not have it. In the very least, he's no Jefferson and I'm not sure he has the hands or the route running to be a slot receiver. Forget the fact we used this year's first on WR. Until this team get the WR position right, this should be a top priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risk920 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I’ll take Patrick surtain or another CB before a WR in the top 7 if we trade back I am game for a WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtfcares Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 WR would be a huge mistake. We need a young playmaker on D or OL. Good WR can be had later in the draft. You don’t get a Bosa type player later in the draft. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggs5008 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Offensive line all the way. Kelce may retire. 3 starters coming back off serious season ending injury. Poor depth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be in for Surtain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godfather Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 It's a very deep oline class. Having a high pick will work in our favor. If they take a guy like Surtain and guy like Creed Humphrey could fall into the 2nd rd. However you look at it, it's a deep class and the Eagles always address that position 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I don't believe oline is a real big need. They have good depth and Brooks and Dillard will be back. Mialata looks solid and the more reps he gets the better he'll be. Lane should be back healthy. The handling of his ankle was a complete disaster. I would like them to address Kelce replacement. Creed Humphrey looks to be a late 1st early 2nd rd pick. I'd love to get a guy like him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A deep WR class where we took Reagor. Maybe let’s stop waiting for what’s left of the deep class and get one of the top guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you’ve got a rotation of Barnett, Sweat, 2nd round rookie, and vet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until this team get the WR position right, this should be a top priority. WR is the #1 bust position in the 1st round. You don't draft them there. Good drafting teams like the Steelers get them in the 2nd, 3rd and sometimes later. There are plenty of WRs coming out of college every year. Kids realize that RBs don't get paid and have short careers, so the best players in the country no longer want to run the ball. They play WR. The Steelers took the kid from Notre Dame in the 2nd. He's going to be in the pro bowl as a rookie. They get AB in the 5th or 6th, then traded him for a 3 & 5 and took Johnson from Toledo in the 3rd, Everyone thought it early but of course the Steelers were right. They are the best drafting team in the modern era. Have gotten numerous other excellent WRs, but they do not draft them in the 1st round. That round is for your 5 premium positions. 1) QB, 2) LT then RT, 3/4) DE/CB, 5) DT. You look first at those 5 position in rounds 1 & 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
