Howie Roseman spent the bulk of the 2020 NFL offseason securing speed, youth, and ultra-athletic weapons to surround Carson Wentz with.
After some draft day wheeling and dealing, Roseman turned a few late-round picks into Marquise Goodwin, John Hightower, and Quez Watkins.
Couple that with the selection of Jalen Reagor in the first round and some athletic undrafted free agents and Wentz should have a bevy of weapons to choose from.
In a ranking of supporting cast from Bleacher Report, Carson Wentz and the Eagles land at No. 15 on the list.
A highly rated group last year, the Philadelphia Eagles’ receiving corps proved to be one of the more average units in the NFL. Philly struggled to field healthy receivers near the end of the season, while Alshon Jeffery and Nelson Agholor were inconsistent all year.
The Eagles allowed Agholor to walk in free agency and replaced him with rookie first-round pick Jalen Reagor. If Reagor lives up to expectations and DeSean Jackson can stay healthy, the Eagles’ receiving corps could be a top-10 group.
Philadelphia has few questions at running back and tight end. Zach Ertz is one of the NFL’s best pass-catching tight ends and is the Eagles’ de facto No. 1 receiver. Miles Sanders, who amassed 818 rushing yards and 509 receiving yards as a rookie last season, is already blossoming into a star.
Reagor’s ability to hit the ground running will play a huge part in how explosive the Eagles offense can be early on, while a healthy DeSean Jackson could vault this group back into the top-10.
