Good, bad and ugly: 10 High points from Eagles minicamp
1. Carson Wentz struggled a little early, but ended minicamp on a high note.
His throwing motion has been discussed. So has his efforts to improve his mechanics and his subsequent struggles at practice. Balls sailed here and there, but Wentz began to turn things around on Wednesday. Aside from yet another pass that sailed and was intercepted by Rodney McLeod, he had a good day throwing the ball.
2. Nelson Agholor beat both Rasul Douglas and Jalen Mills for touchdowns.
There isn’t an Eagles fan on the planet who shouldn’t be smiling after reading or seeing that. Agholor ran well, located the ball well and, most importantly, he caught the football.
3. Alshon Jeffery and Wentz are developing nice chemistry.
We’re trying to remember if we’ve seen Jeffery drop a pass during practice, and though it probably happened, no one, including the other sources we’re checking, remembers seeing it. On one occasion, Wentz avoided pressure by using his legs and found Jeffery for a long touchdown.
