Alshon Jeffery has most to lose after Eagles draft Jalen Reagor

Here’s a quick breakdown of how Philly looks at wide receiver.

If you’re disappointed about Philadelphia’s decision to draft Reagor, don’t be. He’ll pay huge dividends in this Eagles offense. That’s a guarantee. JJ Arcega-Whiteside is the wildcard. He isn’t the sure thing.

The Eagles selected the latter in the second round of 2019’s draft, 57th-overall. He could be used as trade bait, but it’s unlikely. The Eagles are expecting a major step forward by him in Year 2 as they should. With new wide receivers coach Aaron Moorehead in town, fans should see a better version of Arcega-Whiteside than they got in Year 1.

There’s Greg Ward, and though he’s been added and subtracted from the Eagles’ roster more times than we care to remember, we think the Eagles have figured it out now. He can play, and he deserves a real shot to be a part of their offense.

DeSean Jackson is a lock to make this roster. No one disagrees about that, do they?

Deontay Burnett, River Cracraft, Marken Michel, Marcus Green, Shelton Gibson, and Robert Davis are also on the roster, and though it will be difficult for any of them to make the team, they still aren’t the guys with the most to lose. Why? It’s simple. They don’t have much to lose. No one expects them to make the roster. Jeffery should be a lock, but he isn’t. He and his agent have a lot to talk about.
