Quintez Cephus, Wide Receiver

Due to Philadelphia’s recent decision to finally part ways with Mack Hollins on top of all the other issues at wide receiver, there’s a good chance the Eagles will use the draft to improve at the position.

Placing most of the blame on Carson Wentz for the struggles on offense has been unfair all season, and while Quintez Cephus doesn’t stand out like some of the other top receivers across the country, this could turn out to be a potential steal.

Cephus catching 45 passes for 720 yards with six touchdowns shows he’s been flying under radar for the Badgers in 2019, and if he’s available after a few rounds, it would be tough for the Eagles to pass on the wideout.

Shaun Wade, Cornerback

Going back to cornerback, the Buckeyes should seen numerous players at the position get selected early on, and Shaun Wade will most likely be part of that list if all continues to go well.

Frustration doesn’t even begin to describe how inconsistent Philadelphia has been for the most part in 2019 at cornerback, and since some of the younger guys on the Eagles such as Sidney Jones still have plenty to prove, Wade seems worth considering.

After missing the team’s previous game with an injury, Wade appears ready to go to battle Wisconsin, but hopefully whatever injury he was dealing with won’t prevent the cornerback from making his usual impact on defense.
