Thoughts on NFC East picks?

[jazzcat22]

Dallas, Zeke Elliott...we have many posts and thoughts on this already.. but what do fans of the rivals think of this.

Eagles, we knew they get a QB, and I think Wentz will be very good, if brought along well. Will he get that in Philly. But they now lack picks to surround him with a sloid team, or that could be a concern. Maybe it won't be. Is anyone scared he will turn into a very good, if not great QB. But he need sa team, they are clearly looking to the future here.

Giants...Apple..I really like Apple, but at 10th overall, seems a bit of a stretch, though a very good and solid player. I am not fearing him at this point, but could be wrong. I seen him have some excellent games, but also at times, was like, where is he, or he missed that play. He is not afraid of contact though. They sure added defense there, so as a whole, it could work.

Commanders...Doctson...seems could be a very good pick here, so the Ramsey fans will say we needed him to stop Doctson? Not so fast. We keep Odell in check with a good game plan, and keeping the ball away from them with a strong running game will help. But he could hurt us too, which at times i am sure he will. but we will have the offense to counter.

Of course having the 4th pick helped, but I think we did best for help now type player. Wentz being the wild card for future, like 5 years type thing. But it's the overall draft too that really counts. Let's see what the teams do today.

The Skins GM unfortunately is going to turn them into a good team.

I think the Skins and Giants made great picks.

None of those picks concern me. I think they are all decent draft picks, but none, at least not at this point, are game changers. Drafting Wentz and starting Bradford will cause strife most of the season with Eagles fans until they eventually make him the starter. The Giants have been cursed at cornerback so I don't blame them for reaching for one. The Commanders seem to take good players and make them less so at least after their first season. But as I said, they were all decent "need" picks for them.

They all make sense but I give the nod to Dallas, and not because I'm a homer but because Elliott is likely to have a large short-term and long-term impact.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Good solid picks but I was more concerned with if our rivals had gotten Elliot to be honest.

Eli Apple was a huge reach.

Wentz- does not concern me and Philly's ability to put pieces around him is hindered with the cupboard barren.

Doctson was a great pick and the best Wr in this class, imo

Washington suddenly has some serious receiving threats to deal with. Makes Cousins' job fairly easy.

I wonder if Garcon or Jackson will be cut. They both I think have hefty salaries.

 

[canters]

Apple does not improve the Gmen that much,,,a bit or a reach IMO>
Wentz will either be a huge success or a bust. Only time will tell. If he busts, the Eagles are in deep poo. I doubt he makes much of a difference this year.
Washington improved their team. If Cousins plays well this year, they will be tough,
Dallas improved their team at least as much as Washington did.

Eagles need a franchise QB and they made a move for one. Can't kill them for that.

I think the Giants reached a bit but if Apple can play with their bolstered front line, that's a big win for them.

Skins made a great selection and as I said weeks ago, the Skins have the best GM in the NFC East right now. They are going to be a pain in the *** going forward.

Cowboys got a great player but I think they missed an opportunity to get real value in this draft.

Washington had the best draft in the division last year easily. They did their damage in the second and third days. If they pull off another haul, that is not good.

The Giants reached for a tackle last year in the top 10 and I think they reached for Apple in the top 10 this year. Both may turn to be good players but I don't think either player is a home run. When you are picking in the top 10, I don't want rivals getting a top 10.

Philly has a lot of holes. Although if they are right on Wentz they will be a factor in a few years for a long time. If not, they are going to have trouble to win the division in the anytime in the future for the next 5-6 years.

The on,y other team with a solid pick was Wash. Giants had better players to choose from at 10 and Eagles gave up way too much to trade up for a QB that is not the likes of an Aaron Rodgers or Andrew Luck.

 

[Section446]

Commanders are going to be dangerous this year, assuming Cousins keeps improving.

 

[Future]

Apple does not improve the Gmen that much,,,a bit or a reach IMO.

It's a huge reach. They're going to ask him to be the shutdown guy, which Jenkins isn't, so that Jenkins can run around and take risks and jump routes. Good luck putting Apple on Dez week 1.

yep...well on their way.

 

[YosemiteSam]

I hate that the skins got Doctson. Not because I think he is a top tier WR. I think he can be, but I think he has very real bust potential too. The reason I hate it is because he is from TCU, he has no business in Washington. /spit

 

[viman96]

Eagles made a great pick but it cost them a lot in players and picks.
Giants picking Apple at 10 seemed like a big reach but will be needed with all the good WRs in the NFCE.
Skins made a solid pick. Their new GM is going to turn that crap franchise around.

 

[casmith07]

They all drafted for need instead of BPA. That gets you in trouble.

 

[Longboysfan]

I Hope:
The Eagles got their next McNabb.
The Giants CB has fun trying to out jump Dez.

I Think:
Washington on offense - looking good.
