The Philadelphia Eagles are facing many questions around the WR room, with the biggest one centered on WR A.J. Brown. While this has been a painstakingly slow process, it remains likely that his time in Philadelphia is coming to an end. Once that does occur, the Eagles will need to find another high-end WR to add.
The NFL draft is finally next week, and the buzz around Arizona State WR Jordyn Tyson is picking up. After not participating in any drills at the NFL Scouting Combine or ASU's Pro Day, while recovering from a lingering hamstring injury, Tyson plans to hold a workout in front of teams on April 17. He will only do positional drills, but this is a great chance for him to solidify his standing on team draft boards.
ESPN's Peter Schrager reported that 18 teams will be present, and while the Eagles weren't named, they have been linked to Tyson. ESPN's Jordan Reid wrote, "Circle the Eagles as a team that could get aggressive in trading up for a receiver. Jordyn Tyson (Arizona State) is a player to watch, as he could still be on the board in the Nos. 17-20 range. GM Howie Roseman is notorious for drafting replacements for veterans a year in advance."
And with Tyson's stock seemingly rising, the spells bad news for Eagles receiver Elijah Moore.
Elijah Moore Could Be on Eagles' Chopping Block After Jordyn Tyson Buzz
Moore signed with the Eagles on a one-year deal in March, giving them a depth piece. Ever since entering the league in 2021 as a second-round pick by the New York Jets, he hasn't found his footing. He's been with the Jets, Cleveland Browns, Buffalo Bills, and Denver Broncos before joining the Eagles last month.
Across 70 career games (42 starts), he has compiled 209 receptions (365 targets), 2,274 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns. Despite being a focal point with the Browns from 2023 to 2024, where he received 100+ targets in both seasons, he failed to log more than 640 receiving yards in a season. He wouldn't see anywhere near that volume in Philadelphia. The Eagles already have DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, and Hollywood Brown ahead of him.
If they keep A.J. Brown around, that's another playmaker who would eat into Moore's reps. Nonetheless, Tyson is one of the most talented receivers in this class and has the skills to be a true difference maker in the NFL.
Depending on how his workout goes, the Eagles may be intrigued to move up for him on draft night. If they do, Moore will be one of the biggest losers and could seriously impact his future with the team.
