Eagles general manager Howie Roseman beat the Steelers to the punch just as Pittsburgh thought it was going to get wide receiver Makai Lemon.   Roseman stole Lemon right out from under the draft host’s noses by pulling off a trade with the Cowboys to move in front of Pittsburgh in the 2026 NFL Draft and take the player the Steelers were all set to select, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. With everyone in the NFL aware that the Cowboys were going to look to bolster their defense when they were on the clock with pick No.
