1. Philadelphia Eagles

You can only put so many receivers on the field at one time, and with the signing of Alshon Jeffrey and Torrey Smith (whom a lot of people thought would be coming back to Baltimore), the Eagles have a few guys who are not going to be seeing a lot of playing time.

Outside of Jeffrey and Smith, the Eagles still have Jordan Matthews who figures to be their number two, as well as Nelson Agholor and Dorial Green-Beckham.

In that roster, Agholor and especially Green-Beckham are the odd men out, and both are very talented receivers. I personally have been a big DBG fan since the draft, he’s exceptionally athletic and just needs a shot to prove it in a good passing offense.

Next: Will Ubaldo Jimenez Start for the Orioles?

The Baltimore Ravens could use someone like Agholor or DBG and the Eagles have the roster flexibility to do it, it’s just a matter of if they want to or not, and I could see it happening.
