The Philadelphia Eagles just pulled off a slick trade with the Dallas Cowboys, sliding back to snag wide receiver McCoy Limon from USC at pick number, 20 overall. This kid's got that by Letnikoff award shine as the nation's top wideile from his final college season, turning heads with his explosive play. Even stats exploded over time, starting slow with just six catches as a freshman, then blowing up to 52 receptions for 700. 64 yards and three scores in year two. By his junior year, he dominated with 79 grabs, 1,156 yards, 11 receiving touchdowns, plus a couple rushing. Scores, and even a passing touchdown, earning first team all-American honors. Fans and scouts are buzzing because Limon brings that alpha mentality like Detroit's Amon Ross-Aim Brown, fighting for every ball like a honey badger, despite his five foot

1:01eleven, 192 pound frame. He's got unreal hands that don't drop passes, even in traffic, and he blots with high effort in the run game.

But his route snaps and contests the catchability make him a nightmare for defenses right off the gate. Eagles brass see him as an instant impact slot guy who elevates their passing attack watch for Limon to start making noise and Philly from day one.
