Over the past two decades, the NFL Draft has become a national event every April. For months after the end of each season, front offices, NFL prospects, and the fans wait in anticipation for draft night. For those truly invested in the draft, they can equate it to Christmas Day. We scout the internet for what we want, hope for the best, and sometimes end up disappointed. However, dreams are coming true for several hundred young rookies who have been dreaming of this day since they could pick up a football. Now that this dream is complete, they now align a new dream with their new teammates.<\/p>\n
That dream is to lead their new home and new team to a Super Bowl. Since 2008, three NFC East teams (in the New York Giants<\/a> twice and Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>) have hoisted the coveted Lombardi Trophy. Many throw shade at this division but it is one of the toughest divisions in the entire league. People see records barely over .500 and that is because each divisional game is highly competitive and the series are often split. Now that the draft is complete, it is time to delve into the newest additions of the four NFC East teams.<\/p>\n Divisional Draft Grades:\u00a0AFC East<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0NFC South<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0NFC West<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0AFC North<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0AFC South<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0AFC West<\/a> \u2013\u00a0NFC North<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The Eagles have had an incredible off-season and the draft just continued to address any needs or just add depth. Although they came away with only five draft picks, their first three picks came at an incredible value. They Eagles were sitting at pick 25 to start the night but a huge run at defensive player pushed Andre Dillard<\/a><\/strong> (who was regarded as a top 15 pick) down to the 20s and the Eagles made a move with Baltimore to move up. From this point on, the Eagles were locked in to address the rest of their needs securing an incredible talent with their first pick.<\/p>\n In case you missed it, here are the new kids in town.#FlyEaglesFly<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/W97lkakI6e<\/a><\/p>\n — Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) April 28, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n2019 NFL Draft Grades – Evaluating the NFC East<\/strong><\/h2>\n
