Howie Roseman wanted speed for Carson Wentz and his Eagles offense and the top-decision maker in Philadelphia delivered just that.
Roseman will be judged for years to come on his decision to bypass trading up for CeeDee Lamb and then selecting Jalen Reagor over guys like Justin Jefferson, Tee Higgins, Brandon Aiyuk, and Denzel Mims.
Reagor is a dynamic playmaker who’ll instantly upgrade the speed factor of the Eagles roster but Doug Pederson, Press Taylor, and the new Philadelphia offensive regime will have to be creative with getting Reagor the ball in space.
The 5-foot-11, 200-pound wideout can jump out of the gym and finally gives Carson Wentz a dynamic athlete on the outside.
During his final season at TCU, Reagor had 43 catches for 611 yards and five touchdowns.
his modest production stemmed from a freshman quarterback and According to Pro Football Focus, Reagor received the fourth-lowest percentage of on-target throws of any receiver in the Big 12.
He’ll have a much better signal-caller in Philadelphia and will be expected to produce numbers comparable with CeeDee Lamb, Jerry Jeudy, and others.
