The Philadelphia Eagles finally attacked the offensive side of the ball with their first pick of the fourth round in the 2017 NFL Draft.
The Eagles took wide receiver Mack Hollins of North Carolina with the 118th overall selection.

Hollins is 6’4, 221 pounds and ran a 4.53-second 40-yard dash at the combine. Hollins caught 16 receptions for 309 yards and four touchdowns in seven games last year for the Tar Heels before a collarbone injury cut his season short. Using his size and speed combination, scouts like his ability to get down the field vertically using his long galloping strides.
