The NFL Owners Meeting recently occurred in Palm Beach, Florida, bringing several notable comments from team coaches. Below are insights particularly highlighting the NFC East.
Washington Commanders: Dan Quinn expressed his excitement regarding the acquisition of Deebo Samuel via trade from San Francisco, stating:
“Coaching against him, this is an explosive player… He has both of those and an explosive nature. To add a player of his caliber into a tough and strong group, we’re really pumped about it.”
In 2024, Samuel had a challenging season with the 49ers, averaging only 10.2 PPR points, but will step up as the No. 2 receiver in Washington, partnering with Terry McLaurin. Fantasy managers should think of him as a potential No. 3 receiver pick.
Dallas Cowboys: Coach Brian Schottenheimer conveyed that Javonte Williams is eager to demonstrate his skills after signing with the Cowboys. He noted:
“I love his short area quickness. I love the power he runs with… Javonte is one of those guys. He’s hungry.”
Fantasy drafts may position Williams in Round 7 depending on how the roster changes after the NFL Draft.
New York Giants: Coach Brian Daboll remains optimistic about Russell Wilson, highlighting his experience and play-making abilities even as he ages. Daboll remarked:
“He makes good decisions with the football, he’s athletic… phenomenal deep ball thrower.”
Philadelphia Eagles: On Dallas Goedert, Sirianni confirmed:
“He’s a heck of a football player, heck of a leader… he’s on our football team right now.”
However, his future with the team remains uncertain as he approaches the end of his contract.
