<p>I'm thinking specifically about <a href="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=417661" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Lost Legacy</a>. If I get them to exile 4 cards ie. <a href="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=417759" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Saheeli Rai</a>, and allow them to draw 4 on my turn does that mean they can draw on their turn and do not have to discard until the end of their next turn?</p>

Fyi, they only draw for cards exiled from their hand.  So, cards in hand doesn't change.

If you allow your opponent to draw cards can they have more than 7 cards in their hand until their next clean up stage

I'm thinking specifically about [Lost Legacy](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=417661). If I get them to exile 4 cards ie. [Saheeli Rai](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=417759), and allow them to draw 4 on my turn does that mean they can draw on their turn and do not have to discard until the end of their next turn?

> 402.2. Each player has a maximum hand size, which is normally seven cards. A player may have any number of cards in his or her hand, but as part of his or her cleanup step, the player must discard excess cards down to the maximum hand size.
