Not only does this fill a need at a position that’s about to lose a star player, but it also puts Lemon in an offense where he can thrive alongside DeVonta Smith.
Fantasy managers should be excited about this landing spot, while aggressively targeting Lemon in redraft as a WR3 with upside and dynasty as a top-15 wideout.
Prospect profile: Lemon is a scrappy playmaker who’s dangerous all over the field, with his best work coming in the short to intermediate range.
His contested catch ability and toughness are notable given his 5-foot-11, 195-pound frame. He’s also quick and decisive with the ball in his hands, shaking defenders en route to extra yards.
While he lacks elite speed, he moves very well and will always find ways to beat the defense he’s facing. The slot is where he does his best work, but he can be effective all over the formation.
