a substantial boost as a receiving threat Youth Fletcher Cox Jersey , but the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles have plenty of reason to keep him on the field. The second round selection in the 2018 NFL Draft is providing value in other ways.Goedert¡¯s development as a player is important to an Eagles¡¯ offense that runs 12/13 personnel a league high 44% of snaps. His receiving stat line of 13 catches, 113 yards and 1 touchdown hasn¡¯t been a boon for the passing game.Still, he¡¯s been fairly efficient. Per Pro Football Focus, his 1.22 yards per route run ranks 23rd out of 37 qualifying tight ends and comes in second for rookies. His 86.7% catch rate is encouraging as well, but again Womens Brandon Graham Jersey , this is not the promise fulfilling explosion that likely won¡¯t happen until year two or three of his career.Where his real value has been the running game. After minimal usage in the first two games, Goedert quietly stole the show as a blocker against the Indianapolis Colts in their Week 3 win.Even on the runs that didn¡¯t prove successful, Goedert consistently did his job. Here he works to the second level against stud rookie linebacker Darius Leonard. Absorbing Leonard¡¯s initial charge, Goedert works to re-leverage his hands and uncoils his hips before finishing the block. His effort in this area was something that was questioned in the pre-draft process, but that hasn¡¯t been a problem for him so far.When Goedert was on the field against the Colts Youth Nick Foles Jersey , the Eagles averaged 4.74 yards per carry with a robust 57% success rate. Both those numbers would jump against the Minnesota Vikings where he proved once again that he can do more than just take on smaller linebackers.Goedert wins this rep by striking inside with his hands, uncoiling his hips, and keeping his feet active while sealing and driving to the whistle. He¡¯s done this consistently in against bigger linemen throughout the early portions of the season and it¡¯s something he has obviously put a big value on in his development.He spoke about this aspect of his game at the NFL Combine, and the results have shown they¡¯re more than just words.The Eagles deploy him in a variety of ways in the run game and he¡¯s taken on more responsibilities than they ever asked of the departed Trey Burton. Whether it¡¯s cut blocks on split zone, seal blocks on the end man on the line of scrimmage http://www.eaglescheapauthenticstore.com/stefen-wisniewski-j ersey-cheap , second level blocks on linebackers, or wham blocking 300+ pounders, Goedert has been initiated in all the blocks the Eagles running game requires of him.Despite still learning the playbook, Goedert has seen over 30 snaps in four consecutive games. The Eagles run game has seen the biggest impact from this, and when he¡¯s on the field they¡¯re averaging 4.47 yards per carry and an efficient 50% success rate. That data is backed up by the film. It¡¯s not to say he¡¯s not perfect though. Every now and then he will miss some angles Cheap Cameron Johnston Jersey , but that¡¯s been the exception, not the rule.Beyond his run game contributions, he¡¯s also been tasked with aiding the offensive line in pass blocking. This helped the Eagles pull off one of their biggest gains of the season.The unsung hero of this play is unquestionably Goedert. Early third round pick Lorenzo Carter tries everything he can to escape him, including a long arm stab that gets flagged for illegal use of hands. Goedert seals him out, keeping his feet moving and re-leveraging his hands inside to allow Carson Wentz enough time to find Nelson Agholor for a 58-yard gain.The Eagles can afford to be patient with Goedert while not getting bombastic returns in the receiving game. The improvement he¡¯s shown from college to the pros as a blocker indicates he¡¯s a hard worker that takes pride in mastering his craft. The yards in the passing game will come Cheap Sidney Jones Jersey , but for now the Eagles are enjoying the yards he¡¯s helping others create. Despite the fact he was released by the Dallas Cowboys this offseason, the Philadelphia Eagles will face Dez Bryant this year after all. The 30-year-old wide receiver is reportedly back in the NFL after signing with the New Orleans Saints. The Eagles are set to square off against the Saints in the Superdome not this Sunday but the next one on November 18. The start time for that game was recently flexed from 1:00 PM to 4:25 PM. Bryant has obviously posted big numbers against the Eagles in his career. He has 64 receptions for 975 yards (15.23 average) and nine total touchdowns against Philadelphia. With that said, Bryant clearly isn¡¯t the same player he used to be. He looked pretty washed in 2017, which helps to explain why he was a free agent until Week 10 of the 2018 season. Bryant only had 11 receptions for a mere 87 yards (paltry 7.9) average and zero touchdowns against the Eagles in 2017.There¡¯s no doubt that the Saints will be a tough test for the Eagles. They¡¯re THE team to beat in the NFC right now. ...Side note: Going to be fun to watch Cowboys versus Saints on Thursday Night Football in Week 13!
