Ainias Smith Brings FIERCE Competition to Eagles OTAs! Cooper DeJean at Nickel + Parker Retires!

Published 2024-05-21
After Eagles WR Devante Parker surprisingly decided to retire after one day of OTAs, the competition only turned up for the receivers on the roster. However, despite Parris Campbell likely starting out with the first team reps, Rookie Ainias Smith is bringing the competitiveness to camp for that WR3 spot. Plus, given the recent departure, would it be worth Howie Roseman targeting guys like Michael Thomas, John Metchie, or Hunter Renfrow? Also, we recap the other positional battles at camp like RG between Tyler Steen and Trevor Keegan, and CB between Cooper DeJean and Isaiah Rodgers, plus LB with Zack Baun, Devin White, and Nakobe Dean.

  • :_Jalen: Do you want the Eagles to add another WR, and if so, who's your top choice for depth on the outside? :_Howie:
  • @joshprout1726
    Parker saw that receiver room and said “nah imma head out”
  • @weezy215th
    Love seeing Mailata step up after Kelce leaving. we seem dialed in!! GO BIRDS!!!🦅🦅🦅🦅
  • I want A. Smith to take the job. The outside guys will be clearing out the edges so Smith can do his magic in the middle of the field. He's special in open space. Can't wait!
  • @schefsstuff9215
    Always appreciate you & Mott's shows to keep us dialed in during the offseason. Makes it feel like the season's keep going. 👍
  • @aamirkhari8972
    I went from watching so many eagles YouTube channels to just watching yours for the past 8 months🔥🔥🔥 keep up the good work big bro
  • @skyywill7729
    I agree with you Josh. It’s really not even close. Once he’s fully healthy, he’ll show exactly what it is we believe. Young man is a dawg. 🔥
  • @LetsGoBirds24
    I have a really good feeling about Ainias. Paris is fast and could be decent. I think we have choices. I still think Howie is going to make a big splash move before the season starts, but not sure it will be at WR 🦅
  • @Standby_JRB
    Seeing Maliata come into that leadership role after Kelce retiring is really awesome to see... this team is going to be special
  • @BADGamer-fn9su
    Josh, you always kill me with the office clips😂😂😂😂😂
  • @ZapperguyLOL
    Jordan Davis looks like a different dude. If he keeps his current shape, he shouldn't gas out halfway through the season this year. Fangio should help keep that kind of work ethic this year. Ainias may beat out Parris for WR3. Can't wait for some variety in the offense with actual MOTION. We didn't even have a vanilla offense last year, it was unflavored. :_FlyEagles:
  • Even though we had new coordinators last year this year is definitely more exciting. This is also the first time in a long time that there’s so many unknowns and questions of who is starting or where are they playing? Quinyon on outside? Does DeJean play slot? Maddox? Rodgers, Ringo, McPhearson etc what position? Baun inside? Is Huff and Sweat starting outside? Does Nolan get enough snaps? Is it strictly 3-4 this year with 3-3-5 or do we see 4-3 looks? That’s not everything and that’s just defense. Who’s RG? Steen? WR3? Do they play 12 personnel a lot and is it just Calcaterra with Goedert or do we see Albert O. and Uzomah? So many options this year and I can’t wait to see how it shakes out. Go birds 🦅
  • @bretwaddell6172
    Since Mekhi Becton has crazy strength, they should use him for the tush push and other short yardage running situations. So he could be a special situation weapon!
  • I was talking with a Niners fan. Yeah, they know we have Saquon. It's the first thing he said. WE HAVE SAQUON, Ya'll. GO BIRDS!
  • @KiaCarrington
    Became an instant fan of yours keep it up and I’ll keep watching 🦅💚🦅💚
  • @numbskulI
    Parker thought he had that WR3 locked up when he signed. He not tryna compete with THAT room🤣🦅
  • @Ace2Holmes
    He reminds me of Percy Harvin... anios Smith. Percy was a true weapon
  • @jdunn85
    I saw Smith at Texas A&M you have to get that guy the ball ..at least 4 to 5 times a game!!!
