Philadelphia Eagles: 10 draft picks to potentially replace Nelson Agholor

First off, how great was it to see Minnesota take the college football world by storm during the 2019 season by emerging as one of the top teams to beat?
Plenty of factors came into the success behind the Golden Gophers winning 11 games throughout the 2019 season, one of which includes Tyler Johnson following his monster 2018 campaign up with another big year at wide receiver.
After emerging as a top wideout for Minnesota in 2018 by catching 78 passes for 1,169 yards and 12 touchdowns, Johnson found a way to top these numbers this past season.
If Johnson wasn’t receiving the proper attention before the start of 2019, he certainly caught the attention of teams in need of help at wideout after finishing his senior year with the Golden Gophers by hauling in 86 passes for 1,318 yards to go along with 13 scores.
Between Johnson’s ability to see the open field on top of his awareness to catch the football, Johnson is another young wideout that could bring plenty to the table for a team like the Eagles.
Plus, even though Johnson is going to be a rookie, he seems like the kind of player that would also take some of the pressure off other key players like Jeffery or Jackson with his playmaking ability.
