Eagles could be forced to trade up land Justin Jefferson

The Philadelphia Eagles have been linked to every wide reciever prospect in the NFL draft and the Birds are dealing with the conundrum of coveting great talent while owning an average pick.

The no. 21 overall pick in the draft has some value but It’ll likely be to far down in the draft process to land Jerry Jeudy, CeeDee Lamb, Henry Ruggs or Justin Jefferson according to Mike Garafalo.

The former LSU star can be a game wrecker from the slot and appears to be rising quickly up draft boards after initially looking like a player the Eagles could easily land at no. 21 overall.

If Howie Roseman chooses to stand pat, he could decide to trade back and acquire more picks if he doesn’t see value in that spot.
