Like I said last week, I’ve never really been a huge fan of power rankings. They’re meaningless, to be honest. It’s essentially who’s hot and who’s not.
But when I do them, I love to have fun with it, and not take them too seriously. For the most part. I think a mixup of funny and serious is good.
Without further ado, I present the NFC East Power Rankings going into week 2.

Week 1 is in the books! And that means school is back in session… which makes this post pretty much a gimme! The NFC East teams all faced each other opening week, so that makes it easy to grade. Oh, and I grade on a curve in case you’re wondering. Curves saved my grades a few times, so I’m returning the favor.
It was an eventful offseason for all teams in the division. Signings, hold outs, quarterback controversies, and more. But finally getting to play always makes it that much better.
Philadelphia Eagles: I’ll give them an A-. After a very, very slow start and the defense looking not great, the Eagles came alive. Quarterback Carson Wentz went on to have a day, along with returning wide receiver DeSean Jackson, and WR Alshon Jeffrey. The Eagles came back from being down 17-0 to get the win. I guess the best way to put it is that sometimes you just need to get back into the flow of regular season games.

If you’re anything like me, you’re doing a Fortnite dance because we’ve finally made it to game 4 of the preseason!!
But even though we’re at the last week of the preseason, some questions still need to be answered, and that couldn’t be any truer than in the NFC East.
Let’s go around the division and see what questions still need answers!

Three of the four teams in the division played Thursday night and the Cowboys played on Saturday. The Giants perfect preseason record was on the line, for what that’s worth. The Redskins were trying to figure out their quarterback situation, and the Eagles were trying to break the Raven’s preseason streak. The Cowboys welcomed in the Texans and tried to get back to the football that was on the field, instead of contract issues.
Let’s see how it all shook out.

Whew…what a week it’s been. Starting with the Cowboys and their drama between owner Jerry Jones and running back Ezekiel Elliot, to the Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. Then we have the Eagles doing fun things with kickers, and last but not least, Washington continues with trade rumors for left tackle Trent Williams. Let’s head around the division to see what else has been going on.
Washington Redskins
As I mentioned just 2 sentences ago, William’s future is up in the air. He’s apparently holding out for reasons that remain unknown, but could it be that he’s losing faith in Washington’s front office’s ability to care for him and his health in the future. The situation is still sort of unknown.

As I said last week, I’m going to be covering the NFC East. And let me just start by saying when it comes to rivalries, the NFC East is the best.
The AFC North is close, but the NFC East takes the cake. I have never seen four fan bases go so hard on each other all the time. It’s the best thing next to the Michigan/Ohio State rivalry in my mind.
This week, I’m going to check out what’s going on with each team and what they’ve got coming up for their next preseason game!

My dad used to always ask me if the Atlanta Braves had won when I was a teenager. Finally, I figured out who they were, and followed them. As I got older, I started paying attention more to sports. First baseball, then onto football.
Being born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Michigan Football was a way of life. Ohio State is the enemy, and that’s just how it was. My love for college football grew and eventually expanded to the NFL.
I enjoyed watching the Denver Broncos win the Super Bowl in ’98 and ’99. When I came back from college, I moved to downtown Detroit, right across from what would eventually be the Detroit Lions new home. I loved football, so I was all about the Detroit Lions.

Now that the dust has settled and the 2019 NFL Draft is in the recent past, our experts have weighed in on teams choices.
I have to say though, that the NFC East has been of particular interest to me.
What especially intrigued me were the low scores that were given for their picks.
Let’s review some of the best choices along with some of the most puzzling choices.

The 2019 NFL draft is fast approaching, and many teams will be trying to fill the gaps on their roster. It is no surprise that the New York Giants have some gaping holes to address. But the Giants have been known to draft great defensive players over the years, however, as of late they have suffered greatly in that department. Expert analysts have even stated that it is because of the Giants defense that Super Bowl XLVI was such a successful win over the New England Patriots.
Players like Lawrence Taylor, Harry Carson, Pepper Johnson, Michael Strahan, Keith Hamilton, Osi Umenyiora, and Justin Tuck are just a few great players that put the Giants defense on the map. Unfortunately, since the retirement of Strahan, the defense has diminished immensely; so it is time for the Giants to focus on rebuilding. That is why it seems so obvious that the Giants would have an eye on LSU Linebacker Devin White.

The 2019 NFL draft is fast approaching and many New York Giants fans have got to be curious about who the Giants will use their double-digit picks on.
Considered a huge asset to the Giants franchise, Odell Beckham Jr. has been traded in exchange for those multiple draft picks and a former first-round draft pick. This seems to signify a rebuild, but what and who will this rebuild consist of?
This is not the first time the Giants have held double-digit picks, and as history has shown, having the most draft picks don’t guarantee quality players. Let’s take a look at the history of the The New York Giants when possessing double-digit draft picks and those outcomes.
