Why are y’all on here even entertaining the idea of receivers with a history of drops ?
if he’s an injury prone or Have drop issues , keep him far away from my team .
And we all know our coaching staff isn’t good enough to develop prototype receivers .
Hell they even had Greg Ward stashed on the practice squad .
Generally I agree with your statement but Hamler has me at least going
I am high on him as a player but his drops are scary....I am on the Mims train but I still dont think he plays to his clocked speed

honestly since it’s a deep WR class I wouldn’t mind us trading our next year (2021) 3rd & 5th to move up to the top 15 pick , in case Jeudy or Lamb slide .
shoot I wouldn’t mind if we drive two receivers back to back , the team need to get younger in general .

The problem with WR back to back is we have so many holes, we need a safety (I been banging the table for Jeremy chinn) and linebacker...we could use a guard to

i think he ends up developing into a chainmover big body RZ threat. he will never be more then a good #3 or maybe at best #2Y’all don’t think jjaw will develop?
i honestly think we might end up getting Higgins at 21 to replace Alshon then go Mimz(i know he he getting getting alot of talk about creeping into the first but think he can be had) in the second or a Gabriel Davis later. i rather trade up but imo thats just a scenario i can see happening if we stay at 21.

Idk what y’all nikkas see in Higgins. Couldn’t be me
Outside of Jeudy, Ruggs, or Lamb, every receiver has some kind of red flag. Reagor, Hamler, and Aiyuk have issues with drops, Jefferson is unproven on the outside, Higgins isn’t a burner, no one was thinking about Claypool or Mims before the combine. So you either trade up or hope the new WR coach you brought in can develop the best prospect available.Why are y’all on here even entertaining the idea of receivers with a history of drops ?

I don’t think he’s the kind of receiver Wentz thrives with, or even the kind of receiver who wins in the modern NFL. Look at the most productive receivers in the league, they tend to be route-runners who can separate. That isn’t JJAW, he made his name off contested catches. That’s not to say he can’t develop, but I don’t have high hopes.Y’all don’t think jjaw will develop?

its you bro. higgins has good speed isnt a burner & get body control & has played big in big games.
we can agree to disagree thats fine. but i would be totally fine with him at 21 him or Jefferson.
i dont get all the love for Ruggs outside of his speed. i dont see the guy ever becoming a true #1 WR. at best he will be a good number 2 i think he will struggle is the NFL with the physical press corners. he is a gadget player to me. so if we are trading up for ruggs i think thats a mistake.
only two WRs im trading up for is Jeudy or Lamb.
He slow as fukk and only had 3 catches for 52 yards in the championship game. There’s a reason he didn’t do the combine

I dont like Jefferson
Not in the 1st round anyways. He's a slot guy and looks exactly like Jordan Matthews to me
Not a bad player but not someone I'd wanna taken in the 1st

he isnt slow. Higgins will be fine in the NFL speed wise. he isnt no JJAW.
he was also hurt he would have had a bigger game.
if this ball isnt under thrown that is a TD more yards also again played hurt from the game before against Ohio State.

he will be fine bruh.
but lets agree to disagree.
im not looking to have him as a burner. im fine with him at 21 & drafting our burner in the second there will be plenty there. plus we have djax still here. also Perriman available in FA.
There are plenty of great receivers who run in the 4.5s. DeVante Adams, Michael Thomas, Antonio Brown, DeAndre Hopkins, just off the top of my head. You don’t necessarily need elite speed to be able to separate and be a downfield threat. And Tee Higgins was used as a downfield threat frequently in college. I know we’re all understandably gun-shy given what we’ve put up with in Alshon and JJAW last season, but Higgins at #21 wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world, even if he doesn't run a sub-4.4. Especially since the Eagles need to come away from this offseason with more than one receiver anyway.
Higgins in the 1st, Hamler in the 2nd, Anderson or Perriman in FA, with DJax still around? There are worse outcomes…
That said, I'd prefer moving up for Jeudy, Ruggs, or Lamb, or simply taking Reagor or Aiyuk at #21. My preferences pretty much go Jeudy/Lamb > Ruggs > Reagor > Aiyuk > Higgins.
