Josh Huff WR Oregon 86th overall

Josh Huff was also a confusing pick to some. If you ask me, it was a great pick. Many fans forget that the team didn’t just release former Eagles wide out DeSean Jackson, but wide out Jason Avant as well. The Eagles needed to get younger and add depth to the wide receiver position and they did. Chip Kelly coached Huff while at Oregon, and knows exactly how to use him. Huff is 5’11, 206lbs and explosive. He brings a different dynamic to an offense that was already the best in the NFL. Huff will contribute on special teams as well. He’s capable of returning punts and kickoffs. Good pick, good value.

Grade: B
