A constraint refrain from the fan base last season was that the Philadelphia Eagles “need a deep threat”.
While I’m not as sold on the absolute need as others, it definitely hurt the offense when Mike Wallace went down for the season. It also didn’t help that for most of the season Nelson Agholor was used in a low depth of target after catch role that didn’t suit his game. Additionally, I have a hard time believing Alshon Jeffery “commands attention” while also believing a field stretcher is as desperate need as some make it out to be.
