The Philadelphia Eagles are actively reshaping their wide receiver unit ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft. The recent trade for Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers marks the third addition to the team's receiving corps this offseason. With ongoing speculation about A.J. Brown's future, the Eagles are preparing for potential changes. Although trade discussions regarding Brown have stalled for now, they may pick up again after June 1. Brown has expressed frustration with the offense and has been a subject of trade rumors, but he remains a key player with 339 receptions for 5,034 yards and 32 touchdowns since joining the Eagles in 2022. Should Brown leave, DeVonta Smith is ready to step up as the primary receiver, with the Eagles believing he has untapped potential. The team also signed Hollywood Brown to a one-year deal to fill the void left by Jahan Dotson, who moved to the Atlanta Falcons. Additionally, the Eagles brought in Elijah Moore, who needs to prove himself after limited success last season, and Darius Cooper, a promising undrafted player from Tarleton State. The competition for roster spots remains fierce as the Eagles look to solidify their offensive strategy for the upcoming season.
