Should the Eagles Target a #1 Receiver Next Offseason?

By Isaac Barrow: The Philadelphia Eagles closest thing to a Pro Bowl receiver in the last few years was Terrell Owens, but we all know the end to that story. Owens and Donovan McNabb didn't get along; it was a mess.

In a world where nowadays, the wide receiver has an attitude problem and is very egotistical (Randy Moss, Chad Johnson, Jerry Porter) teams are forced to unload piles of money on people who touch the ball maybe six or seven times a game.

Randy Moss, probably the best receiver in the league, earned over fifteen million last year. Chad Johnson also earned the big bucks.

It seems since 2005, the Eagles never wanted to go after that big name, top dollar receiver because of the Owens saga.

However, sources did say that the Eagles tried to get both Chad Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald, a wasted effort after both ended up heading back to their 2007 teams.

Right now, Eagles fans are hoping a Johnson or Fitzgerald caliber wide receiver lands in Philly sometime in the near future, and if that happens, they know there is hope ahead.
