My dream would be for McCluster to be more of a 4th receiver -- get him the good looks that Chad Hall was getting. Unlike Hall, McCluster will catch the ball.

The eagles have to make a choice.
They have to decide of which receiver they are going to keep. Maclin, or Riley.
Cooper solves a huge problem. He runs excellent routes, understands the passing game, and will come cheaper than Maclin who is obviously more talented, although the injuries, and specifically the concussions seem to be mounting.
Maybe Aj Jenkins can fill the speed aspect, as could a tight end.
But, it sure would be nice to have someone like Cooper who is extremely reliable.
Kinda like a joe jurevicius.
