Here are the most interesting stories Tuesday in the AFC East:
  • Free-agent receiver Brandon Lloyd tells PFT Live that he would be interested in joining the New England Patriots.
Morning take: Lloyd and the Patriots would be a great match. Lloyd has a great rapport with offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and could provide the deep threat New England needs.
Morning take: The Dolphins need a safety, but quarterback and right tackle are bigger needs. Once those are filled, the Dolphins can check their cap space from there.
Morning take: We’ve said it plenty of times -- Buffalo traditionally is a tough spot to land free agents. The Bills lose out on another player who could've helped, but the Bills can't stop trying to land top guys.
  • How will the New York Jets fit in the Peyton Manning sweepstakes?
Morning take: Not much. The Jets will be mentioned, but realistically, they are behind too many other teams.
