Eagles ride camp momentum as NFC East hopes rise across the division

As training camp ends, the piece frames optimism for the Eagles and each NFC East rival: the Eagles look set to extend their playoff streak with Vic Fangio's potential elite defense and a healthier offensive line; the Cowboys should maintain elite offense with a solid, not-terrible defense; the Commanders may benefit from Jayden Daniels' return and coaching staff tweaks; and the Giants seek a culture reset with young talents like Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo, plus better luck in close games after going 1-7 in one-score contests last year.

Raiders ride Mendoza to early draft glow as Jets and Giants shine among 32-team grades

The New York Post grades the 2026 NFL Draft for all 32 teams, praising the Jets and Giants for standout first-round showings, highlighting Jets’ David Bailey and Giants’ Arvell Reese, while the Las Vegas Raiders earn top marks after selecting Fernando Mendoza with the No. 1 pick and leveraging Tom Brady as a minority owner; the NFC East divisions’ teams all deliver strong drafts, and Broncos and 49ers are viewed as disappointments in the weekend’s grades.

NFC East Day 2 Shakeup: Giants, Commanders, Cowboys Add Key Youth

NFC East Day 2 Shakeup: Giants, Commanders, Cowboys Add Key Youth

Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft brought additional depth for the NFC East: Giants select Colton Hood (CB, Tennessee) at 37 and Malachi Fields (WR, Notre Dame) at 74; Commanders pick Antonio Williams (WR, Clemson) at 71; Cowboys grab Jaishawn Barham (EDGE, Michigan) at 92. Eagles had already added Eli Stowers (TE, Vanderbilt) and Markel Bell (OT, Miami). Hood is a sticky cover man with limited ball production, Fields is a big-bodied contested-catch threat, Williams is a slot-oriented playmaker, and Barham is a lean, bendy edge with upside despite modest college sacks. Neither the Commanders nor Cowboys had a second-round pick due to prior trades.

Trench-First Blueprint for the Eagles in the 2026 Draft

Trench-First Blueprint for the Eagles in the 2026 Draft

The piece argues the Eagles should target offensive linemen or edge defenders in the first round of the 2026 draft if the value is right, prioritizing the trenches over receivers or other positions. It lists trench prospects on The Athletic’s consensus big board and notes safeties and tight ends are unlikely first‑round targets. The article also breaks down the NFC East contenders’ draft situations: the Giants at picks 5 and 10 (with discussion of trading back and potential targets like Sonny Styles, Jeremiyah Love, or Caleb Downs), the Commanders at 7 but with no second or fourth rounds due to past trades, and the Cowboys at 12 and 20 (with talk of moving up for Sonny Styles). Overall, it frames a strategy that avoids reaching at non-trench positions and leverages value in Day 1–2 to shape the later rounds.

NFC East Free Agency Day 1: Eagles sit out as rivals push for immediate impact

Day 1 of NFL free agency in the NFC East had the Eagles losing several veterans (Jaelan Phillips, Nakobe Dean, Reed Blankenship, Jahan Dotson among others) and signing no outside players. The Cowboys swung early with notable moves, including acquiring Rashan Gary via trade and signing S Jalen Thompson and edge Sam Williams. The Commanders leaned into big-ticket moves, notably signing edge Odafe Oweh to a four-year, $100 million deal and adding Amik Robertson and Tim Settle. The Giants stayed busy with multiple signings (Isaiah Likely, Jermaine Eluemunor, Tremaine Edmunds, Jordan Stout, Ar’Darius Washington, Isaiah Hodgins, Chris Manhertz) and losses like Wan’Dale Robinson and Cor’Dale Flott to the Titans. Overall, Day 1 offered a mix of exits, new deals, and some surprising overpays, with the Eagles standing out by remaining quiet.

Two Ex-Eagles Aides Rise to DC Roles for Cowboys and Giants

Two ex-Eagles assistants have landed high-profile defensive coordinator roles in the NFC East: Christian Parker is joining the Cowboys as passing game coordinator/DBs coach, and Dennard Wilson is becoming the Giants’ defensive coordinator on John Harbaugh’s staff, after stints with the Ravens and Titans. The piece notes Wilson’s earlier Eagles tenure and suggests both hires could boost their new teams while keeping the Eagles’ coaching tree influential in the division.

Gannon Targets NFC East DC Openings, Not Returning to Eagles

Former Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon, fired earlier this year, is reportedly interviewing for defensive coordinator openings with the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders, rather than returning to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles had a strong defense under him in 2022, though the unit benefited from a light quarterback schedule; his Cardinals tenure included issues over impermissible contact with Philly and disputed statements. If hired by Dallas or Washington, he could rekindle in-division matchups and a revenge narrative against Philly, though both teams may opt for other candidates.

They also eliminated the Cowboys from postseason contention, celebrating a significant achievement under coach Nick Sirianni and quarterback Jalen Hurts.
