There may be no more exciting division for fantasy football production than the NFC East. It's true today and it was true in 2017, though the headlines have changed slightly. The Dallas Cowboys looked like the favorite after handing over the reigns fully to Dak Prescott, the Washington Redskins were finally going to unleash Josh Doctson and Rob Kelley on opposing defenses, and maybe the plucky Philadelphia Eagles would figure something out! Haha. Hahaha. Maybe we're all idiots. Or maybe i[...]

Whether it be a best ball league (acceptable) or a league which limits roster moves (unacceptable!), if you need to find a quarterback or a defense in the draft who will be there for you come crunch time, then this is for you.
