Eagles Trade Up for Lemon, Strengthen WR Room

0:00It's April 24th. Welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where the league meets AI. I'm Corey with the story. The Philadelphia Eagles stayed true to form, trading up for the fifth time in six years during the first round of the NFL Draft. They dealt with the Dallas Cowboys again, jumping from the 23rd pick to 20th overall to snag wide receiver McCoy Limon out of USC. In the trade, Philly sent their 23rd pick, plus fourth rounders at 114 and 137 to Dallas. Now they hold a second rounder of 54, two-third round picks at 68 and 98, and later ones in the fifth and sixth. This move seals the deal on AJ Brown's exit, with a trade expected after June 1st. The Eagles have stacked their receiver room already, grabbing Don Tavion Wix with an extension, plus Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore on one year. Deals, all backing DeBon to Smith as the top guy. Limon dominated college last year, winning the Fred Bellenacoff Award with 79 catches,

1:021,156 yards, and 11. Touchdowns. He's a slot wizard like Smith, Chris Brouts, Low Drops, and Topps in First Down Grabs, shifting their attack to yards after catch over D-bombs. Eagles fans are buzzing over this A-minus great pick. The WR-2 in the class after Carnell Tate, Howie Roseman nails these trades, building starters like Smith and Carter, and Limon fits right in to thrive early under their coach.
