Draft Report Card: NFC East

NFC East:

Dallas Cowboys- C
First round pick Zack Martin is their starting left guard and is going to help this offense tremendously. Jerry Jones traded up in the second round to draft defensive end Demarcus Lawrence, a fierce pass-rusher who put up big numbers at Boise State. Outside of those two picks, I feel could have done more with the picks they had.

New York Giants- B
Big Blue's brass capped off an active offseason with a so-so draft. The selection of Odell Beckham Jr. provides a much needed spark to the passing game. Weston Richburg will likely be the starting center for many years to come. And Andre Williams brings a bruising running style that the team hasn't had since Brandon Jacobs in his heyday. Eli Manning still needs a tight end to throw to, though.

Philadelphia Eagles- A-
Chip Kelly addressed all of his team's needs. Marcus Smith will compete with veteran Trent Cole for the starting right outside linebacker job, adding much needed pass-rushing skills to the position. Wide receivers Jordan Matthews and Josh Huff make up for the release of DeSean Jackson. And the secondary was addressed, adding safety Ed Reynolds and cornerback Jaylen Watkins, who also has experience at safety.

Washington- C+
Brian Orakpo got the franchise tag applied to him, meaning he could very well enter free agency next offseason and the team needs to be prepared, which they now are after selecting Trent Murphy. Third round pick Morgan Moses will likely have a shot at the starting right tackle job. Lache Seastrunk is reunited with college teammate RGIII and should be a good complement to Alfred Morris. Their weakest link (the secondary) was given just one new member and should have been of higher priority.
