The Eagles snatched Makai Lemon in the NFL Draft, but did they need depth more?
PHILADELPHIA — It’s a challenge to wholly accept Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman’s seize-value-when-it-appears draft strategy when the team’s lack of depth strongly contributed to its downfall last season.Let’s go ahead and italicize an important word. Wholly. There is plenty to love about former USC wide receiver Makai Lemon, the 2025 Biletnikoff Award winner and dogged chain-mover who was surprisingly available beyond the midway point of the NFL Draft’s first round. The Eagles could not have snagged Lemon had they not traded up from No. 23 to No. 20 with the Dallas Cowboys. They know this because Lemon was actually on the phone with the Pittsburgh Steelers when the Eagles called.المصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
