Breaking down the Patriots, AFC East
The AFC East proved to be one of the best and most competitive divisions in the conference last season. That distinction is not likely to change given how the teams have already managed to reload and fortify less than a week into free agency. What could change, however, is the pecking order from top to bottom. The Bills, while still the favorite, aren’t a lock to win their fourth straight division title as all of the teams below have their sights on making a move and unseating the champs.

5 Free Agents, die die Steelers unterzeichnen könnten, würden nicht gegen kompensatorische Picks zählen
Wenn es um freie Agenturen geht, gibt es ein Gleichgewicht zwischen verlorenen und verpflichteten Spielern. Wenn du mehr Leute verlierst, als du unterschreibst, verwendet die Liga eine Formel, um dir kompensatorische Picks im NFL-Draft zuzusprechen. Das Ziel ist es, so viele Spieler wie möglich hinzuzufügen, ohne diese Formel zu beeinflussen. Das bedeutet, Leute zu verpflichten, die vor Ablauf ihrer Verträge entlassen wurden.
5 free agents the Steelers could sign that wouldn't count against compensatory picks
When it comes to free agency, there is a balance between players lost and players signed. If you lose more guys than you sign, the league uses a formula to award you compensatory picks in the NFL draft. The goal is to add as many players as possible without impacting that formula. This means signing guys who were released before their contracts expired. Here are five guys who wouldn't count against the formula for the Steelers to consider.

Chris Perkins: Who are the Dolphins’ biggest acquisitions of the past 10 years?
On paper, the Dolphins hiring longtime defensive coordinator Vic Fangio seems to be among the franchise’s biggest acquisitions of the last 10 years, and perhaps it’ll someday crack the top 10. But until Fangio does something tangible, his acquisition is only a good idea. The same is true for every high-profile signing, trade or draft pick. You’ve got to show results to be deemed a success.

Miami Dolphins vs. Minnesota Vikings prediction, pick, odds: Will Dolphins stay over .500 with Thompson at QB?
The Miami Dolphins aren't happy right now. They've lost Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater to concussions within the last couple of weeks and have named Skylar Thompson the quarterback for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Thompson was injury-prone at Kansas State but can lead the Dolphins forward. Meanwhile, Minnesota has won four of five games to start the season and looks like a potential Super Bowl contender.

Game Observations: Ten Takeaways as Patriots Stumble Out of the Gate in Loss to Dolphins
The Patriots week down in Miami ended with an unpleasant final result to begin the 2022 season as the Dolphins bested New England in a 20-7 victory at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.

The Pats managed just seven points, turned the ball over three times (including a fumble-six), and failed to get their early-down offense going.

22-man starter projections for all 32 NFL teams

Ranking the AFC East Defensive Back Situations, Pre-Draft Edition
Where the Miami Dolphins stand among their division rivals at defensive back after the first wave of free agency After the first wave of free agency, it's a good time to revisit every AFC East team's roster and see where everybody stands at each position.

Jackson for the Patriots, Marcus Maye for the Jets.

Only the Pittsburgh Steelers (July 21), Dallas Cowboys (July 21) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (July 24) start before that.

Dolphins RBs Myles Gaskin, Matt Breida miss practice; Patrick Laird limited
The Miami Dolphins released their first injury report of the week on Wednesday and it was a long one. 12 players were listed on Wednesday, although eight were full participants.

© Bob DeChiara-USA TODAY Sports DL Brandin Bryant Once upon a time, Miami Dolphins cornerback Byron Jones was the highest-paid corner in football. And while it was only seven months ago that this was the case, it is quickly starting to feel like a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Dolphins’ Byron Jones signing looks much different after market reset
Once upon a time, Miami Dolphins cornerback Byron Jones was the highest-paid corner in football. And while it was only seven months ago that this was the case, it is quickly starting to feel like a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Because despite Jones’ lack of availability over the last few games, he’s still very much a high-end cornerback who figures to help bolster Miami’s pass defense once he becomes uninhibited and fully available to play.
Drew Lock, Raheem Mostert among spate of injuries to mar early Week 2 NFL games

The Bears, Jets and 8 other NFL teams with absolutely no chance to win Super Bowl 55
Save your angry tweets. Log out of Facebook messenger. Find your pressure points and do a couple "woosahs." As much as the idea of "any given Sunday" or "the one time" is cute, we can't fool ourselves into believing that all 32 NFL teams have the same odds to win the Super Bowl as the teams at the top. Sorry, it's simply not the case. Sure, some of the NFL is getting hot and healthy at the right time — but if you stink for 13 weeks out of the 17-week season, then it really won't matter much.

10 reasons the Cowboys will be a dumpster fire this season
This week, all week long, we're taking a negative look at each of the teams in the NFC East, in detail. Batting leadoff, as always, will be the Dallas Cowboys. To note, we will not be talking about the positives of any of the Eagles' NFC East rivals, because, well, that's no fun. This will be 100 percent vitriolic. And yes, we'll try to torch the Eagles as well at the end of the series.
Which Dolphins are most likely to make the Pro Bowl in 2020?
The Miami Dolphins’ roster is looking quite different after the 2020 offseason facelift it received courtesy of the 2020 NFL Draft and free agency. That infusion of talent is angling to secure a more competitive team in South Florida this season — but it will also bring more exposure to casual fans of the sport as well. One great example is the annual Pro Bowl event. The Dolphins didn’t see a single player named to the 2019/2020 Pro Bowl — that despite DeVante Parker’s monster season in 2019.

NFC East 2020 free agency grades: Dallas Cowboys edition
The Dallas Cowboys had an odd 2019 season. They stayed healthy, had an occasionally explosive offense, and should have easily won a very weak NFC East. Instead, they faltered, and faced a challenging offseason, with a slew of good players hitting the open market.
