The Philadelphia Eagles will have some decisions to make surrounding their wide receiver corp once free agency opens, with Riley Cooper and Jeremy Maclin both set to hit the open market.

There has been some back and forth about who the Eagles would prefer to re-sign, but if it was up to Maclin he would be the man to put his name on the dotted line.

Maclin recently spoke to the media, where he reiterated his desire to remain with the team.

“I know that everything is going to work out how they’re supposed to work out,” Maclin said, via CSN Philly. “I’ve always stated this is where I want to be. The Eagles have stated the same thing. So, we’ll continue to get on the same page with all that and, like I said, get something done.”

The Eagles have also said they would like to keep Maclin on the roster, so it will be interesting to see if the two sides can work out a deal.

If they are unable to reach an agreement, Maclin should have plenty of respectable offers on the free agent market as one of the top wide receivers available.
