By Frank Coyle, Special to Rivals.com NFL Draft

Rivals.com has partnered with NFL scout and draft expert Frank Coyle of draftinsiders.com to analyze the five biggest needs of each NFL team. Today, we look at the NFC East.

Three teams in the NFC East enter the 2008 Draft looking for playmakers at wide receiver. The division that produced three playoff teams should find help in the bottom of the first round, like Michigan star Mario Manningham, that can make an early impact.

NFC East: Dallas Cowboys


Dallas (13-3 in 2007)
Head coach: Wade Phillips (Second year)
Key needs: 1. Wide receiver 2. Cornerback 3. Running back
1. Wide receiver - The starters here, Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn both over 34. Young Patrick Crayton is up in free agency.
2. Cornerback - The playoffs exposed this position. There is little talent other than veteran starter Terence Newman.
3. Running back - The Cowboys could lose veteran Julius Jones in free agency. We have heard rumblings about them trying to select Darren McFadden in the Draft.



Why can't people that write for sports actually pay attention to it?????

Yes indeed we could.

Yeah that just goes to show you that this guy doesn't do his homework and proves that he has no pride in his work.

You know the more I read about Early Doucet the more I like him...

The other thing is that Henry is also a good CB. The issue with CB is in the 3rd and 4th CB area. Well along with keeping the top two healthy.
