Fresh off capturing a Super Bowl, the Philadelphia Eagles’ top offensive weapons are going to be highly coveted in fantasy football drafts. Ahead of the 2025 campaign, one duo was named among the league’s top pairings.
When users are drafting their roster, one approach some try to utilize is obtaining a stack. Securing the right quarterback/wide receiver pairing can put any team over the top, as it opens the door for putting up big scoring numbers in any given week.
Although the Eagles’ passing game has been a big topic of discussion this offseason, the reigning champs still received high praise for one of their stack combinations.

Eagles’ pairing ranked as top stack in 2025 fantasy football season
With a little over a week until the regular season gets underway, Moe Moton of Bleacher Report ranked five stacks users should consider targeting. Coming in at the top spot was the Eagles’ duo of Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown.
“As a former pass game coordinator, Patullo could employ a balanced offense that features more of Hurts’ arm talent and his receivers. If so, Brown could eclipse 1,400 receiving yards in a season for the third time in four years with the Eagles,” Moton wrote. “The Eagles’ stack gets the nod over the Bengals’ tandem because Hurts may be available a round after Joe Burrow, and the same can be said about managers taking Brown a round after Ja’Marr Chase. Yet these duos could produce similar fantasy numbers.”
Given their projected draft positions, obtaining this pairing is realistic in any draft. This also puts them ahead of the Cincinnati Bengals’ duo, as Ja’Marr Chase is expected to be one of the first three players off the board in the vast majority of drafts.
Although widely regarded as a top ten receiver in the league, Brown’s average draft position is midway through the second round. As for Hurts, he is commonly being taken in the fourth round.

When playing a full season, Brown has averaged around 1,500 yards a season with the Eagles. With his mix of size and speed, he has become the go-to target for Hurts. While Philadelphia does have another highly-skilled receiver in DeVonta Smith, this stack still has the potential to carry any fantasy team in 2025.
