2022 NFL draft grades for NFC teams: Cowboys lag behind Eagles, and is it OK to be excited for Lions?

The picks are in, from No. 1 (Travon Walker to the Jacksonville Jaguars) through No. 263 (Brock Purdy to the San Francisco 49ers), and we have broken all of them down.

Here are our final NFC team-by-team grades for the 2022 NFL draft (picks listed by round and overall pick):

NFC East

Picks: 1-24: Tulsa OT Tyler Smith; 2-56: Mississippi EDGE Sam Williams; 3-88; South Alabama WR Jalen Tolbert; 4-129: Wisconsin TE Jake Ferguson; 5-155: North Dakota OT Matt Waletzko; 5-167: Fresno State CB DaRon Bland; 5-176: LSU LB Damone Clark; 5-178: Arkansas DT John Ridgeway; 6-193: Oklahoma State LB Devin Harper

Favorite pick: Tolbert

There is absolutely a path for Tolbert to be the third receiver after CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup, provided he can beat out James Washington, who signed for one year and a little over $1 million.
