Kenny Stills

It’s easy to understand why people want Stills in Philadelphia. He’s young, he’s fast and he fills a position of need for the Eagles. However, Stills has never eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark in his four-year career and he will cost a lot of money. Too much. Stills will be a hot commodity in free agency, which means his price tag will be hugely inflated by clubs desperate for a deep threat (like, for example, the Eagles). While Stills has undeniable talent, he is not worth the amount of money it will likely take to sign him.
