Yes there have been whispers that teammates found him arrogant and that his practice habits slipped.
I really do believe losing Reich and Defilippo has hurt and sadly Doug's not strong enough to keep at Wentz when he screws up.

Hurts is also a second round rookie.
Wentz is a 120m second overall pick on a second contract
PHI is in a unique position.
(a) How many 3-8-1 teams have still ever had a mathematical chance of winning a division?
(b) OTOH, if they lose the next 4 like they have the last 4, they're in primo draft position.

I don't think (a) is gonna happen. Start the rookie QB, call it development, and try to get into position to pick a potential elite wideout, which they need very badly.

They did pick one. Jalen is fast but quick, jumps high and stuff....so I heard.

I'd laugh if they went full Matt Millen and drafted another WR in the first round. That team has more pressing needs like O-line or secondary.

2021 NFL Mock Draft: Panthers, Falcons take QBs in top 10, Eagles get best WR in class to help hapless offense - CBSSports.com

2021 NFL mock draft: Eagles grab stud SEC wide receiver | RSN (nbcsports.com)

Idk, couple of the mocks I Looked at ^^^ had them taking Chase out of LSU (he's good, electrifying speed). A couple of others had them taking LB Parsons from Penn St.
The Eagles would have to do a whole house cleaning and a fresh start from top to bottom for them to have any thought of drafting a LB in the higher rounds. Yes the WR core sucks but that o-line needs to be addressed with the best player. Plenty of good WRs in the later rounds.

you would know this from past experiences? :)
I kinda wish the Browns did at some point, it means they actually had a great player to pay at some point even if it didn't pan out like Wentz lol

I don't think they need to be focusing on WR with some many other holes, especially on the OL.

Losing Reich was huge. Offense has gone downhill ever since. He had that offense humming.

That and the QB has fully regressed to now benched. I like Doug, seems like a good guy and did get the franchise it's first title but he needs to be removed along with Howie.
