Eagles Trade Up for Lemon, Boost Passing Game

0:00It's April 24th. This is NFL News Today, AI-powered stories from around the league. I'm quarried with the story. Philadelphia Eagles just pulled off a slick trade-up in the 2026 NFL draft, snagging wide receiver McCoy Limon from USC with the buyer. 20th overall pick. They dealt with the rival Dallas Cowboys, grabbing that 20th spot plus the 7th rounder, while shipping out their 23rd pick along with the 114 and 137 selections. Many figured the birds would beef up the trenches with a tackle, but they opted for flash instead, loading up their passing game early. This pick crows the wide-out room, pairing Limon with the Vantesmith, Dantevian Wix, and Hollywood Brown up top, which might spell tough times ahead, for AJ Brown and Philly. Limon's a polished slot threat with elite ball skills and quickness. Ranked as high as 12 on big boards, and he's got that instant impact vibe. Eagles still hunt edge rushers, tight-ends, safeties and guards, with picks at 53, 64, 98, and beyond. Watch how they round.
