Ja'Kobi Lane and Makai Lemon highlight an underrated Trojan NFL draft class, in which slides on the draft board were balanced by good team fits

USC football had seven players in this past NFL draft that were worthy of being selected. It panned out that only three USC Trojans heard their name called. Although that was the case, all seven Trojans landed with an NFL team, and the majority of them have a great shot to compete for a spot.

Here is my grade for each landing spot for all the former USC Trojans in this past draft: Makai Lemon - Philadelphia Eagles I give this move an A, and it is a win for both sides. The Eagles get a legitimate weapon for Jalen Hurts to help lessen the blow of losing A. J.

Brown. On the other hand, Makai Lemon will be able to get a great opportunity to feast in his matchups while Devonta Smith gets all the attention. I could see Lemon starting off hot with the Eagles, and he and Devonta become a dangerous duo in the NFL.

Ja'Kobi Lane - Baltimore Ravens I also view this move as an A. Lane gets to land with a team he wanted to be on, and a team that has desperately needed a player with his skill set. Lamar Jackson has become one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the NFL, with the type of talent Lane had at USC.
