With the selection of Makai Lemon at No. 20 overall, the Philadelphia Eagles have added another dynamic option to an already talented wide receiver room. The depth is impactful, and Lemon brings speed and playmaking ability that should immediately factor into a rotation that'll likely see new OC Sean Mannion utilize five or six wideouts at a time. Lemon's arrival means another elite playmaker competing for snaps as a slot or rotational outside weapon. His arrival adds pressure to the depth behind the starters while giving the offense another versatile piece that can be moved around to create mismatches.
The Eagles traded picks No. 23, 114 & 137 to Dallas for pick 20 and a 7th-round pick. With the move, Philadelphia currently has Brown, DeVonta Smith, Lemon, Hollywood Brown, Elijah Moore, Dontayvion Wicks, Johnny Wilson, and others among a deep, wide receiver corps.
Starter: #1 Jalen Hurts#14 Tanner McKee#16 Andy Dalton
Jalen Hurts has begun on-field work with Sean Mannion. Hurts will benefit from having the former quarterback, along with Josh Grizzard (pass game coordinator) and another former quarterback, Jerrod Johnson, on staff as senior assistants. Tanner McKee returns, while the Eagles traded a 7th-round pick to Carolina to acquire veteran quarterback Andy Dalton.
Starter: #26 Saquon Barkley#8 Tank Bigsby#28 Will Shipley#39 Dameon Pierce#34 Carson Steele

A key trade acquisition, the hard-running Bigsby participated in 16 contests (one start) with the Eagles, recording 356 rushing yards on 63 carries (5.7 avg.) and 2 touchdowns. Will Shipley will try to regain his momentum, while the Eagles added former Texans running back Dameon Pierce for more competition.

Starter: Dontayvion Wicks-- Acquired via trade#80 Darius Cooper#89 Johnny Wilson#86 Quez Watkins#82 Danny Gray

Darius Cooper is the player most impacted by Lemon joining the roster. At the same time, Johnny Wilson will look to regain his training camp form from 2025, before he suffered a significant knee injury. This depth chart could drastically change around June 1. The addition of Dontayvion Wicks via trade and his contract extension make things even more interesting.

The Eagles' offensive line suffered multiple injuries in 2025 but will look to rebound under the new offensive line coach. The Eagles have hired Chris Kuper as offensive line coach. The Vikings didn't retain Kuper after four years in the same position. During Kuper's tenure, Minnesota ranked 32nd in pressure rate allowed on the interior in three of the last four seasons, including 2025, a ranking that led to his dismissal. Landon Dickerson was excellent in 2024 but finished the 2025 regular season with a 60.3 PFF pass-blocking grade, which ranked only 51st among 81 qualifying guards. Jordan Mailata didn't replicate his elite 2024 campaign, but he was still Philadelphia's best offensive lineman. His 83.8 PFF overall grade ranked seventh among all offensive tackles. Lane Johnson, 35, is a future Hall of Famer with a resume that includes six Pro Bowls, two first-team All-Pro nods, and a pair of Super Bowl wins. Johnson's value is clear: the Eagles were 8-2 with him in the lineup this season, versus 3-4 without him. During his tenure in Philadelphia, the team's record is 94-41-1 when he plays and 15-27 when he doesn't.
