Michael Pittman has always been an interesting player to me. I live on the west coast and I do have a chance to watch a lot of PAC12 games. Every time I watched USC, Michael Pittman flashed off the screen. With a better QB his production would have been a lot better. What I like about Pittman are a few thing: sure-handed, give 100 on every play (blocking, etc.), football IQ, route running, physicality after catch and his ability to attack ball in the air.

Only negatives: acceleration, deep speed, and press release

With that said, I'll go ahead and say I like him more than every other WR left on the board maybe besides Higgins. Eagles need to pair Reagor with another WR. Both Higgins and Pittman will be better than Whiteside.

Antonie Winfield would be #1 on my board to be honest but still need WRs. LB is also a need but that can be address in round 3. Offensive line, not too concerned. Eagles are one of the best teams in drafting good O-linemen late

I know at some point I'm gonna be woefully wrong, but I can't get past my anti PAC-12 bias. It's gonna be a hard pass for me.

A bit slower then some others avail but he does have a very good route tree. He is polished and wouldnt need much coaching up in the next level. the speed would be the concern but we have all seen 4.5 guys make success through good route running to get separation.  i wouldnt mind the pick one bit.

As the X receiver I like it. I'd probably prefer Mims based on ceiling but I like Pittman.
