18 Jun NFC East Projections
This year I decided to get into the projections game, and today the focus is on NFC East Projections. My process is still evolving, but based off comparisons I have seen to other projection models, feel like these are in the ball park. The formula is a blend of play calling tendencies from recent seasons by those in charge of the offense (Head Coach and/or Offensive Coordinator) + individual player performances + my assumptions on how much of a role each player will have within the offense. These assume healthy seasons, a 17 game schedule, and there is a 5% margin for error – meaning the totals add up to 95% of what I project overall for each team. 
NFC East Projections
If everything breaks right, the NFC East looks like it will be back as a formidable division. A lot hinges on the healthy return of Dak Prescott, which would lead to Dallas winning the crown. Things will be close, and the attention these teams have paid to bolstering their rosters will pay off.
This is a great division for Running Backs in fantasy headed by the usual suspects Ezekiel Elliott and Saquon Barkley, but Antonio Gibson is entering that top level as well. Even with all of the defense that’s been added, there should be plenty of offense. A trio of Cowboys could flirt with 1,000 yards receiving, and Jalen Hurts looks poised to run amuck with a firm grasp on the starting role. His reunion with DeVonta Smith will be a welcome site, and vindication for those who doubt the 2021 Heisman Trophy winner.
