jahnyc Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Interesting that the teams in the AFC East have taken some hits this offseason. The Bills have lost Jennings, Williams and will hopefully trade Henry. The Jets have lost McKenzie, Ferguson and Jordan (interesting, similar position losses to Bills, a RT, a DT and a back-up RB, all solid players). The Dolphins cut some decent players and have little room to sign free agents (plus they were terrible last year and will start Feely this year) The Pats have lost Weiss, Crennel, Patten, possibly T. Brown and Bruski.
Like A Mofo Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Jets got rid of paul hackett....ask jets fans here...they will tell you thats all they need
loadofmularkey Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Four days into the free agent "bonanza", I challenge you to name a single team that has already improved.

stevestojan Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Four days into the free agent "bonanza", I challenge you to name a single team that has already improved. 262713[/snapback] We got rid of Bledsoe, so I will chose the Buffalo Bills.
Puhonix Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Raiders. next question 262715[/snapback] They had nowhere to go really, but up.
Arkady Renko Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Jets got rid of paul hackett....ask jets fans here...they will tell you thats all they need 262711[/snapback] How many coordinators has Herman Edwards gone through in his short stint as HC?
loadofmularkey Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Raiders. next question 262715[/snapback] Really? Who's going to throw him the ball? Who's going to run the ball?
Arkady Renko Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Really? Who's going to throw him the ball? Who's going to run the ball? 262729[/snapback] Kerry Collins, Lamont Jordan. Oh crap, was this a rhetorical question?
1billsfan Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 The Pats have lost Weiss, Crennel, Patten, possibly T. Brown and Bruski. 262708[/snapback] You forgot Law, Andruzzi and Phifer.
Like A Mofo Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Really? Who's going to throw him the ball? Who's going to run the ball? 262729[/snapback] You really do not think the Raiders got beter since Jan 1? Seriously?
Tom Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 They had nowhere to go really, but up. 262720[/snapback] And they beat us..... (actually the officials did)
Alaska Darin Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 You really do not think the Raiders got beter since Jan 1? Seriously? 262740[/snapback] It's going to be interesting to see who they have to cut to get under the cap.
Like A Mofo Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 It's going to be interesting to see who they have to cut to get under the cap. 262753[/snapback] What cap? Im really starting to wonder about this cap... Redskins? What cap?
Alaska Darin Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 What cap? Im really starting to wonder about this cap... Redskins? What cap? 262756[/snapback] You're not kidding. My kingdom for Clump to spend the time telling us how those teams are currently doing it.
loadofmularkey Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 You really do not think the Raiders got beter since Jan 1? Seriously? 262740[/snapback] Adding Jordan and Moss definitely helps, but they don't have a QB. Collins was mediocre at best last season and who knows how much longer the suddenly injury-prone Gannon will be around? If they decide not to make a move at QB, I could definitely see Randy getting fed up sometime around Week 5. As far as Jordan goes, here's a guy who's never had more than 100 carries in a season. I know he was decent last year in a part-time role with C. Martin but until he proves me wrong, Jordan (to me) is just another RB similar to what Oakland has been using for the last couple years. The Zeroue-Wheatley-Garner mold. All I'm saying is, until Oakland gets a QB and Jordan can show that he's the 1,000 yard rusher they're hoping he is...I don't really think they've improved.
stuckincincy Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Raiders. next question 262715[/snapback] LB Harris who got moved on in the Moss trade has to be replaced.
Fartacus Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Oakland gets worse on D, gives up its first rounder for a guy with TREMENDOUS talent but is by all accounts a turd. He may prove to be more trouble than he's worth. In other words, a perfect Raider. They're still too far away to compete however.
