Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Avant had a career-best season in 2009, catching 41 passes for 587 yards and 3 touchdowns. Avant is the team's third receive and is most effective working out of the slot. Avant, a restricted free agent tendered last week, is now part of the long-term picture as the Eagles have their healthiest situation at wide receiver in many, many years. Avant teams with DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin to give the Eagles one of the best young wide receiver threesomes in the league.
