Jeremy Maclin

The Eagles surprise everyone by picking – I'm not kidding – WR Jeremy Maclin.

First round calier wide receivers just don't end up in Philly –  that is until now.  The Eagles traded up two spots, from #21 overall to #19 overall to select Missouri WR Jeremy Maclin.  G. Cobb likes the pick .

"I think Maclin was the best receiver in the draft," G. Cobb notes.  "That was a great pick.  He is also a punt returner, so you know he is tough and can make people miss.  He has great hands and is a very polished route runner.  He will run all of the routes and make catches in traffic."  As far as the Eagles next pick goes, G still believes that LeSean McCoy is a possibility.  "The staff likes what he brings to the table.  I think he would be a good addition as well."
