Makai Lemon: D It was to be expected that Makai Lemon would have a slow start to the season given his lack of participation in the offseason... I think he should live in the slot and eat up short targets there to get him going.

STACKED’s take

Lemon graded D; source expects slot role to unlock his potential as Eagles figure out usage.

The source grades Makai Lemon a D for Week 1 and attributes his rough performance partly to scheme fit; he missed significant offseason practice time due to hamstring injury. The source believes Lemon should operate in the slot to leverage his strengths, and notes the Eagles clearly want him involved given his snap volume (29 receiver snaps, third-most at position), suggesting the team is still determining how to integrate him into the offense after DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks.
