McLane: Without a trade, Eagles are in trouble at receiver
Time is running out if the Eagles hope to upgrade at wide receiver, otherwise it's Nelson Agholor, Dorial Green-Beckham and Josh Huff on the outside for the rest of the season.
So unless Howie Roseman emerges from his hole and sees his shadow, expect a Groundhog Day-like repeat of dropped passes, poorly-run routes and penalties for the next nine games.
The NFL trade deadline is 4 p.m. Tuesday and while there have been reports linking the Eagles to the 49ers' Torrey Smith and the Bears' Alshon Jeffery, coach Doug Pederson continued to insist that his team wasn't likely to make a deal for a receiver.
