With the 2015 fast approaching, Bucky Brooks is breaking down the biggest areas of need for every team in the NFL, division by division. Below is his look at the NFC East. (NOTE: Click on tabs to see other divisions; click on team names to see a full list of draft picks.) Biggest needs: Cornerback, running back, defensive tackle. The emerged as one of the NFL's biggest surprises in 2014 with a plucky defense that overachieved under Rod Marinelli -- the wily coordinator worked wonders with a talent-starved lineup. Of course, Dallas still must upgrade its perimeter defenders to maintain its grip on the NFC East crown. Adding a dynamic cover man like Washington's or Wake Forest's would give Marinelli the versatile corner needed to play man or zone on the island. The team could target a Day 2 candidate like Utah's or Florida State's as a value pick. The also need a disruptive interior defender; Florida State's and Oklahoma's would be ideal three-technique defensive tackles in Marinelli's aggre sive scheme. Offensively, the must replace with an explosive runner who can handle a heavy workload. Wisconsin's and Georgia's -- the marquee runners in the draft -- could each muster 1,300-plus rushing yards behind Dallas' vaunted offensive line as the focal point of a run-heavy game plan. (Though there's a chance, of course, that Gurley, who is , might not be ready in time to contribute for a full season.) Biggest needs: Defensive tackle, linebacker, safety. The are at their best when they're built around a formidable front line on both sides of the ball. On defense in particular, Big Blue thrives when able to wear down opponents with a deep and talented line rotation. A rugged defensive tackle like Washington's would be the monster in the middle the G-men need to control the run at the point of attack. New York could also target Clemson's , TCU's or Miami's -- three rock-solid linebackers with the potential to shut the door Randy Cross Jersey on the running game while also floating in coverage on pa sing downs. Additionally, the must addre s the lo s of versatile veteran safety in the back end. Arizona State's could be a perfect fit as a potential safety/nickel corner. Biggest needs: Cornerback, safety, receiver. Coach Chip Kelly has certainly dominated the headlines with his spectacular retooling of the ' roster, trading away their most productive offensive player ( ) and allowing their WR1 from last season ( ) to walk as a free agent. Although Kelly did fortify the running back corps with the additions of and , Philly still lacks firepower at wide receiver. Thus, the team will look for a speedy playmaker -- like Miami's , Kansas State's or Florida State's -- who could add a spark to the pa sing game. On defense, the must improve a leaky secondary that was repeatedly victimized by big plays on the perimeter. Adding a long, rangy corner like LSU's , Wake Forest's or and Connecticut's could help the unit play more man-to-man on the perimeter. Don't discount the notion that they'll take a long, hard look at a ball-hawking safety like Alabama's or Arizona State's if the value is right. Biggest needs: Pa s rusher, cornerback, offensive tackle. Under new general manager Scot McCloughan, the will focus on identifying big, athletic playmakers on both sides of the ball. The veteran scout will immediately look to shore up an underachieving defense by adding a dynamic pa s rusher to the lineup. Nabbing Clemson's , Nebraska's , Mi souri's or Florida's would certainly accomplish that task. The could also target a rangy cover corner to fortify a secondary that has some intriguing young defensive backs ( ) in the pipeline. USC's , Utah's and Miami of Ohio's are ideal Day 2 candidates, based on their size, length and versatility. On offense, Washington needs to find a right tackle prospect capable of holding up against elite rushers on the edge. Pittsburgh's , Miami's and Texas A&M's should be squarely in the cro shairs as developmental prospects with big-time potential. Follow Bucky Brooks on Twitter . Kevin Givens Jersey
