02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Eagles utilize a West Coast offense, characterized by its timing-based throws, quick passing game, and a strong emphasis on run-pass options (RPOs).

X-receiverBoundary receiverRed zone target
Best role

Initially, he could be a rotational X-receiver and red-zone threat, with the ceiling to become a primary boundary receiver.

Wrong fit

He would struggle in a pure Air Raid or spread RPO system that demands consistent route running finesse and explosive YAC ability.

Arcega-Whiteside's strong hands and contested-catch ability align well with the Eagles' need for a physical, chain-moving receiver.

04The evaluation

Selected #57 overall in Round 2 of the 2019 NFL Draft by Philadelphia Eagles out of Stanford.
