Dorial Green-Beckham, wide receiver, Philadelphia Eagles
Now that the Eagles have signed both Torrey Smith and Alshon Jeffery, the remainder of the team’s depth chart at receiver remains up in the air. We heard rumors that former No. 1 receiver Jordan Matthews was on the trade block earlier in the offseason. That’s unlikely to unfold, with Matthews potentially set to maintain his role as a starter opposite Jeffery. After that, everything seems to be up in the air.
Pretty much taken out of the rotation last year, former first-round pick Nelson Agholor isn’t a lock to make the 53-man roster. Though, Philly did invest a lot on him. The same can’t be said for Green-Beckham, who is both raw and extremely talented.
Last season saw the former Tennessee Titans’ second-round pick record 36 receptions for 392 yards and two touchdowns while catching less than 50 percent of the passes thrown in his direction. That’s surely not sustainable. It’s also one of the primary reasons Philadelphia went out there and picked up two top-end free agent receivers.
Look for DGB to be placed on the trade block here soon. And if nothing comes to fruition, a release prior to training camp seems to be the likeliest end result.
