LaDarian Blake’s Prediction:
Nelson Agholor, Wide Receiver, Southern California
Chip Kelly goes back to his Pac 12 roots to select an impact WR. Agholor checks off every box Chip Kelly looks for in a wide receiver size, character, and versatility. First team All-Pac 12 in 2014, Agholor stands 6’0 198lbs and possess good RAC ability and is a very smooth route runner. He’s also a willing blocker which makes him more attractive to the Philadelphia Eagles. In terms of versatility Agholor added value as a special teamer and can play the slot or out wide. Agholor can step in right away alongside Jordan Matthews and Josh Huff to give the Philadelphia Eagles a good young trio of pass catchers.
