Agholor may become a decent receiver, but he's still got the dead eyes of a shark and I won't be surprised when they start digging up bodies in his backyard.

We've been the best team all year.

They're just finding out.
As an Irish American Philadelphian, I am willing to take the blame for any Eagles fan bad behavior on to my ethnic group. We contributed nothing to all the awesome food available around here so we have to pull our weight somehow.

Not sure if anybody here cares, but during this off-season there has been some serious weirdness going on over at r/eagles. Someone is botting up tens of thousands of new subscribers for completely unknown reasons.

This Nelson Agholor hype is getting out of hand. Now a beat writer is calling him the most talented WR on the field. Apparently the dude is going bonkers and that's even with the other WRs having a good camp, too.

Also, even with Gibson & Torrey there, Agholor has also clocked the fastest speed this camp.

Who all has majorly turned a corner on the 3rd year after a start like Agholor? Obviously the guy's back is against the wall, but these beat writers are getting crazy.

The historical trope is that it takes three years for a rookie receiver to figure out the game. Last year we saw Davante Adams break out with a 1000 yard season after two years of relatively sub-par performance and being a joke about inefficiency and stone hands, and that included a 2015 season where Jordy Nelson was gone and Adams had all the opportunity in the world. I wouldn't be surprised if Agholor did the same thing. He was a first round talent and my recollection is that he wasn't considered a reach.

Note:

Talks are heating up for the Eagles to acquire Kyle Fuller from the Bears. Who of which, according to Prince Akumura, Fuller has been "Lights Out" this off season 🤷🏻‍♂️

Former Eagles scout, Daniel Jeremiah, had a bunch of stuff to talk about. He was almost hired as the Eagles personnel chief instead of Joe Douglas:

- Nelson Agholor has had a complete rebirth. He will be the team's starting slot receiver. As far as what that means for Jordan Matthews....🤷🏻‍♂️
- Jernigan has been ridiculous and even outplaying Cox. Both the d-line & o-line look like top 3 units.
- Alshon Jeffrey is fine.
- Shelton Gibson can't catch a ball.
- Mack Hollins is gonna be a "Pro Bowler" on special teams. Likened him to Kassium Osgood.
- "Whole lot of talent at WR isn't gonna make the team" because of the overabundance. Marcus Johnson has constantly been making plays. Greg Ward has looked really good, too.
- Corner is a legit major worry. Jalen Mills looks OK, Douglas is up and down as a rookie, Robinson looks terrible.

Jalen Mills is crap. He'd be a ok back up, but he's not a guy you would want taking the field unless there was an injury. But it looks like at this point he is the Eagles best cornerback and the competition is not even close.

I hope they don't, Fuller's got a lot more promise than any of the CBs we've signed. I think he got over halfway to Amukamara's TO total in his rookie year.

The Bears declined his 5th year option and signed two other CBs. (or something like that - not a Bears fan)

I seem to remember people talking about trading Kendricks to Chicago months ago but I guess Chicago didn't want him.

On the other hand, Nolan Carroll and Leodis McKelvin combined for 1,406 snaps last year but their releases don't mean the CBs are improved.

Which positional group is worse, the Eagles WRs last season or the Eagles CBs this season?

I like the idea of playing the new guy in three safety sets: http://www.phillyvoice.com/eaglescould0-use-newly-acquired-db-corey-graham-three-safety-sets . Jenkins can cover too, so this could be a partial fix.
