From the San Francisco 49ers to the Arizona Cardinals, there are plenty of teams that will be in great position ahead of the Eagles to select Lamb in the draft if they want to address wide receiver in the first round.
Not to mention, another team that could very well wait to see if Lamb falls to No. 17 or even trade up a few spots to draft the wideout is the Dallas Cowboys, who will be looking for revenge on the Eagles after seeing how things played out in 2019.
With all of the injuries surrounding Philadelphia as a team, it was unbelievable to witness Dallas failing to take advantage of the situation last season by coming up short in winning the NFC East title, but there is every reason to believe they will bounce back this upcoming season.
If the interest is in fact there for the Eagles in regards to Lamb, the last thing Philadelphia would want to see happen is the wideout ending up on a different team that impacts the NFC race down the road.
This may not seem like the biggest deal in the world at the moment, but if Lamb lives up to the NFL hype, and the Eagles fail to make a move to trade up for the wideout, it would be devastating to see Philadelphia regret the decision later on.
