NFC East Draft Grades


1. Washington Redskins- A-

Round 1 • Pick 15 (15) • QB Dwayne Haskins

Round 1 • Pick 26 (26) • LB Montez Sweat

Round 3 • Pick 13 (76) • WR Terry McLaurin

Round 4 • Pick 10 (112) • RB Bryce Love

Round 4 • Pick 29 (131) • G Wes Martin

Round 5 • Pick 15 (153) • C Ross Pierschbacher

Round 5 • Pick 35 (173) • LB Cole Holcomb

Round 6 • Pick 34 (206) • WR Kelvin Harmon

Round 7 • Pick 13 (227) • DB Jimmy Moreland

Round 7 • Pick 39 (253) • EDGE Jordan Brailford



To start I am actually a very big fan of this teams draft, before the draft started we were questioning how high they would have to trade up to get one of the top 3 but they stayed put and got my number one quarterback in the draft. Haskins was great value at 15 and

on top of that they got another top 15 player at 26 with a trade up in montez sweat which with these two picks they filled positions of need. Other notable picks I liked were Pierschbacher, Harmon, and Moreland, Kelvin Harmon was a day two pick in my opinion and they got him in the sixth this being one of the best value picks in the draft. Overall the Skins did a very good job of getting players that fill their needs at a good value.




 

2. Philadelphia Eagles- B

Round 1 • Pick 22 (22) • OT Andre Dillard

Round 2 • Pick 21 (53) RB Miles Sanders

Round 2 • Pick 25 (57) WR JJ Arcega-Whiteside


Round 4 • Pick 36 (138) • DE Shareef Miller

Round 5 • Pick 29 (167) • QB Clayton Thorson


Overall this draft looks very mediocre they got a good pass pro left tackle to play this year at guard and be their future left tackle after Jason Peters retires, they got a good scatt back to replace Jordan Howard after this year and they got a receiver who can plug in right away and be an immediate threat on the outside. There last 2 picks I wasn't very fond of because I felt that they reached a bit on Shareef Miller and clayton thorson wasn't awful however I scold these last two because they didn’t address their overall aging and not so good secondary.

 


3. New York Giants- C+

Round 1 • Pick 6 (6) • QB Daniel Jones

Round 1 • Pick 17 (17) • DT Dexter Lawrence

Round 1 • Pick 30 (30) • CB Deandre Baker

Round 3 • Pick 32 (95) • EDGE Oshane Ximines


Round 4 • Pick 6 (108) • CB Julian Love

Round 5 • Pick 5 (143) • LB Ryan Connelly

Round 5 • Pick 33 (171) • WR Darius Slayton

Round 6 • Pick 7 (180) • CB Corey Ballentine

Round 7 • Pick 18 (232) • OT George Asafo-Adjei

Round 7 • Pick 131 (245) • DT Chris Slayton


Off of the bat the giants had the worst pick in the draft, this draft was awful from the beginning for you giants fans. Daniel Jones was a second to third round quarterback and you took him a 6, Blake Bortles anyone?? What blew my mind is when you took a Damon Harrison replacement when you could have just kept him in the first place don’t get it twisted the guy is a good player but the pick made little sense in my opinion and to go on and get worse the Giants traded back up into the first to get Deandre Baker, who wasn’t even the best corner available and had you stayed put you probably would have been able to get him at 37. The draft however did get much better and that is the reason for the C+, O'Shane Ximenes and Julian Love were great value picks that will come in and help the team right away. Corey Ballentine has potential and Ryan Connelly will probably start at LB because it is a glaring weakness as of right now so overall the draft was decent but the first round was awful.

 


4. Dallas Cowboys- D+





Round 2 • Pick 26 (58) • DT Trysten Hill

Round 3 • Pick 26 (90) • G Connor McGovern

Round 4 • Pick 26 (128) • RB Tony Pollard

Round 5 • Pick 20 (158) • CB Michael Jackson Jr.

Round 5 • Pick 27 (165) • DE Joe Jackson

Round 6 • Pick 41 (213) • S Donovan Wilson

Round 7 • Pick 4 (218) • RB Mike Weber

Round 7 • Pick 27 (241) • DE Jalen Jelks

Now before all of these cowboys fans come for my head hear me out, YOU DIDN'T TAKE A GOOD SAFETY, you had a chance to get Taylor Rapp in the second and you said “nah I’m just gonna forget our biggest weaknesses on the team” that's stupid and Trysten Hill wasn’t worth a second rounder he was a mid to late 3rd on my books, and I’m still mad for the cowboys fans because Jerry Jones screwed this team yet again. However there are certain picks I like out of this draft Connor McGovern is great value late in the third except he won’t play right away unless there is a move made to open up a guard spot. Jalen Jelks was great value in the late seventh, both of the 5th round picks were very good but waiting to take a safety until the sixth was awful even a guy like Chauncey Gardner Johnson in the 3rd would have been great but Jerry Jones still vastly undervalued this position.
