Anyone been paying attention to them? After reading numerous people mention over and over how our divisional opponents got better over the offseason while we either got worse or stayed the same, just thought I'd mention a few tidbits:
- Ochocinco has reportedly had an awful preseason.
- Brandon Tate (former 3rd round WR for Pats) is apparently on the roster bubble.
- Pats cut their former starting SS, James Sanders, who signed with the Falcons as well as former 4th round pick, CB Jonathan Wilhite
- Daniel Thomas, the RB the Dolphins traded up into the 2nd round for (gave up 3 picks for him, I believe), has been a big disappointment. Coaches aren't happy with his ability to run up the gut. Reggie Bush (who got 5 carries for -1 yards the last preseason game) will almost certainly be the starter.
- Philip Merling, former 2nd round pick (32nd overall) of Dolphins has reportedly lost explosiveness after an Achilles injury last year. He's currently the 5th DE and is on the roster bubble.
- 2010 3rd round pick, OG John Jerry has reportedly been a "bitter, bitter disappointment" and was "soft and unprepared."
- Dolphins just put OT Allen Barbre on IR and their OL hasn't looked very good overall this preseason. They only got 15 yards on 13 carries against Tampa Bay.
Take from it what you will. I haven't heard much about the Jets overall, though I thought they were the one team who didn't really improve at all this offseason compared to last year (only re-signed a couple guys, lost a decent number of players too though).
Most all of this info is from rotoworld.com, by the way.
