NFC Hierarchy/Obituary: Post-draft edition

by Jimmy Kempski

For those of you who are new here, we do a "Hierarchy/Obituary" post every week during the season, in which we kill off teams that have reached the point where they have almost no chance to make the playoffs.

Let's take a position-by-position look, and compare the two teams. On Saturday we looked at the offensive side of the ball. Today we'll look at the Eagles' and Cowboys' defenses.
