Eagles Receiver to Target if... (1 Viewer)

[panicinwi]

I'm hoping he is OK, but if he was to be slowed up, or not play at all, cause of his pulled groin who would be the Eagles WR that will benefit the most?

 

[drew726]

Celek

Celek

 

[Carolina Hustler]

Maclin?

 

[Routilla]

McCoy, especially if Westbrook is out which is sounding more and more likely.

 

[spider321]

D. None of the above

 

[Birdnals]

Avant

 

[CravenM]

To me, the question is often the answer:

Why would you target somebody that isn't obvious?

Some QBs and teams spread the ball around so as to make the choice a crapshoot

Another vote for Avant.

Team leader in targets and receptions/receiving yards would be my guess.

 

[Demian]

I'd bet Avant is the benefactor, Curtis doesn't seem fully healthy yet. (Excluding TEs)

 

[Zoomanji]

Celek and Avant

 

[Jason Wood]

I presume Avant would play more reps. But this merely argues more for spreading the ball around, as has been the Eagles M.O. for most of the last decade.

McCoy, especially if Westbrook is out which is sounding more and more likely.

This.The Eagles probably aren't going to have to throw that much this week at all.

I would definitely play Avant as a WR3 in PPR leagues if DeSean is out. The other WRs are too much of a gamble. Maclin is not ready yet but could get a few special plays for him.

From what I've heard, Philly management loves Avant. If either D Jackson or Curtis are out, Avant starts and is the benefactor.
