The Philadelphia Eagles made an aggressive move on draft night, trading up to select wide receiver Makai Lemon with the 20th overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Philadelphia moved up the board in a deal with the Dallas Cowboys to secure Lemon, signaling the organization identified the USC standout as a priority target.
Lemon, coming out of USC Trojans, is coming off a breakout season where he surpassed 1,100 receiving yards and posted double-digit touchdowns, establishing himself as one of the top wide receivers in this year’s class.
