"The New England Patriots won the AFC East this season for the first time since 2019, but if they don't want to hand the division right back to the Bills in 2026, they'll need further reinforcements. 9th in effective cap space and holders of 12 draft picks, they have little reason not to improve this offseason, and that should get fans very excited."
"The Dolphins are in a difficult position. Tua's contract is tradable, but cutting him is not so viable. It seems unlikely anyone would take on that contract unless he was willing to take a major pay cut, which isn't impossible if the right team came calling. Perhaps the Chiefs could look his way with Mahomes' ACL tear? Regardless of Tua's fate, Miami will look to bring in competition for the QB1 role at the very least."
The New England Patriots won the AFC East this season for the first time since 2019 and risk surrendering the division back to the Bills in 2026 without further roster reinforcements. The Patriots rank 9th in effective cap space and hold 12 draft picks, giving them financial and draft flexibility to upgrade this offseason. The Bills remain the primary threat in the East, while the Jets lack a long-term quarterback solution despite draft capital and young cornerstones. The Dolphins have struggled in the playoffs, prompting owner Stephen Ross to remove Mike McDaniel and Chris Grier and consider quarterback options including Tanner McKee, Zach Wilson, and Quinn Ewers.
