If Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor was available before, he may be even more available now.

With the 57th overall pick, the Eagles drafted Stanford wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside.

While Arcega-Whiteside and Agholor aren’t necessarily similar, the Eagles have invested heavily in the position.

Arcega-Whiteside is a bigger target, who had 63 catches for 1,059 yards and 14 touchdowns last year.

Agholor’s due 9.837 million this year, and that’s probably a luxury item with Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson on the roster. Now it’s a matter of seeing what they can get for Agholor, who had 64 catches for 736 yards and four touchdowns last year.
