For the Philadelphia Eagles, there's always easy and safe options in fantasy football that can lead to a championship.
From Jalen Hurts to Saquon Barkley to A.J. Brown, these are the easy choices to make in fantasy football drafts. The ones that will help fans' teams win is the sleeper picks. Players who most won't pick right away, but Eagles fans know will make an impact either early or late in the season.
Who are four options in fantasy football on the Eagles that can help any fans' fantasy team in 2025?
This might be one of the biggest surprises on the list, but there is a good reason for it. Saquon Barkley will get all the carries, but Shipley can do so much more in this offense than run the ball, as his receiver skills could get him on the field. Shipley will need to beat out A.J. Dillon for playing time, but Shipley will be someone to watch later in the season if Barkley gets hurt and needs a back in fantasy.
It seems that Smith always falls short in receiving statistics, as he has been second on the team every year since Brown's arrival. Smith makes for a good option in fantasy, though, as he led the team in receiving touchdowns with eight. He has been able to hit 1,000 yards in two of his four career years in Philadelphia and has a chance to do it again, and might be able to overtake Brown.
Goedert seems like one of the easier choices at tight end in fantasy, but his recent injury concerns might scare people from picking him up. Despite missing seven games, he was still third on the team in receiving yards with 496. In a contract year for the tight end, Goedert is going to play with a ton of motivation and should get more points on the board in fantasy.
Last season was a forgettable one for Elliott, who missed a career-high eight field goals and was under 80% in field goals made. It seems unlikely that Elliott will have that type of year again, and it would make for a good late-round pick, as most football fans will likely avoid him. Watch for a big bounce-back year for Elliott and help the Eagles win some games and be a more productive fantasy player.
