2017 NFL Draft Prospect Watch: Weapons for Eagles' Carson Wentz

With no need to look at quarterbacks in 2017, the Eagles will be focused on guys for their franchise signal caller to get the football to.

They'll also be looking at the one position on defense that appears to be a weakness: Corner.

Here's a look at how some of the better receivers and corners in the 2017 draft class fared.

Corey Davis, Western Michigan, senior, WR, (6-3/213)
Davis could be the Carson Wentz of the 2017 wide receiver class. He comes from a small school, but he's polished and could shoot up draft boards as evaluators delve more into the process. He's an excellent route runner with great size and speed. He's also had success against higher competition

Davis' domination of the Mid-American conference continued this weekend. The senior hauled in seven catches for 150 yards and three touchdowns in a win over North Carolina Central. He's had over 1,400 yards and snagged at least 12 touchdowns the last two seasons.

Travis Rudolph, Florida State, junior, WR, (6-1/192)
Rudolph is a long, explosive receiver with good ball skills. He could stand to get a little stronger but the playmaking ability is there. He had seven catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns in a win over Charleston Southern. He's coming off a strong sophomore campaign where he had 916 yards and seven touchdowns.

Isaiah Ford, Virginia Tech, junior, WR, (6-2/190)
Like Rudolph, Ford has flashed some explosiveness but needs to add more bulk. Ford had a monster sophomore season (75 catches, 1,164 yards, 11 TDs). After a strong start against Liberty in Week 1, Ford was held in check by Cameron Sutton in Virginia Tech's loss to Tennessee. He was held to just five catches for 51 yards and was kept out of the endzone.

Cameron Sutton, Tennessee, senior, CB, (5-11/186)
Speaking of Sutton, he was undressed on a play by Ford early in that game. Luckily for Sutton, the ball was underthrown and he was able to knock it away from Ford. Overall, Sutton did an excellent job on Ford. Sutton, who chose to come back for his senior season, also has three career touchdowns on punt returns. Sutton needs to get stronger but showed off his cover skills last season against Alabama stud receiver Calvin Ridley.

Teez Tabor, Florida, junior, CB, (6-0/201)
The defensive back formerly known as Jalen, jumped all over a screen and intercepted it against Kentucky. He showed off his quickness and instincts. That's what makes him arguably the best defensive back in college football. Don't surprised if Tabor is the first defensive back off the board come April.

Tre'Davious White, LSU, senior, CB, (6-0/197)
White had a ridiculous punt return in Saturday's win against Jacksonville state. OK, he won't be able to run backwards for 21 yards in the NFL, but the athleticism is impressive. White also could've entered the draft last year and might have been selected in the first round. In a deeper defensive back pool in 2017, he'll likely be drafted on Day 2.
