The Eagles swapped with the Cowboys to move back and select wideout Makai Lemon out of USC at No. 20. Here’s everything you need to know.
What the Eagles are getting:
Lemon looks to be the next undersized star at wide receiver in the NFL with a play temperament and play-making ability that demands attention from opposing defensive coordinators. The 2026 Biletnikoff Award winner possesses phenomenal ball skills and surprising hand strength to boot. He simply does not drop passes, no matter the coverage and contact he’s playing through. The Lions’ Amon-Ra St. Brown has been his pro comparison for all of draft season and for good reason. The two play with an alpha mentality that is the bedrock of their game. Don’t be surprised if Lemon starts making waves at the next level from the very start of his career.
