It's April 23rd. This is NFL News today, powered by AI tracking teams, players and standings. Dallas Cowboys heading into the 2026 NFL Draft with picks at number 12 and number 20, and one name buzzing is 21-year-old. Wider-Cever McCoy Limon from USC. The Belentnikoff Award winner put up 1,156 yards last season, but former Cowboys star Des Bryant is throwing cold water on. Drafting him, Bryant posted on X that he's higher on Jacobi Lane instead, saying Lane's more NFL ready with his 6-beat 4-inch frame versus Lemons 5 feet. 11 inches. He praises Lane's catch radius, routes, confidence, and that untouchable big play vibe, calling him the draft steal. Lemons no slaps though. Bryant even compares him to legends like Steve Smith and Santana Moss, those elite smaller receivers who thrived. Still, Bryant worries Lemon needs the perfect fit to translate his college scheme to Pro Ball. Meanwhile, the Pittsburgh Steelers are in the mix too,

with their number 22 pick. New Stealer Michael Pittman Jr., another USC alum, is pushing hard for Lemon, citing his work ethic and instant impact potential. Draft kicks off April 23rd through 25th in Pittsburgh, so we'll see if Lemon lands with Dallas, hits to the Steel City, or surprises. Everyone else?
