The Eagles worked to fortify their tight end group by drafting Dallas Goedert out of South Dakota State with their second-round pick.
It’s safe to assume they got a little impatient, possibly thinking the Cowboys would pursue the FCS standout with the 50th pick due to Jason Witten reportedly planning on retiring. So, the Eagles traded up from 52nd to 49th to leap-frog the Cowboys at 50.
Here’s what the experts, players, and average Joes are saying about the pick:
Dallas Goedert, PFF's #1 TE, averaged over 8 yards AFTER the catch on every reception.
