Here are the most interesting stories Monday morning in the AFC East:
  • In a surprise move, the Buffalo Bills interviewed Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III at the NFL combine.
Morning take: I wouldn’t make too much of this if you’re a Bills fans. Buffalo has the No. 10 pick and just paid starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick $59 million. The interview was more for due diligence.
Morning take: This means Miami’s No. 2 target will certainly hit the open market. The Dolphins will explore Peyton Manning over the next few weeks. If that’s not an option, Flynn is next.
Morning take: Light is under contract for one more year and is considering it. But even if Light walked away, New England is well-stocked at offensive tackle with Sebastian Vollmer and Nate Solder.
  • Is Notre Dame receiver Michael Floyd a possibility for the New York Jets?
Morning take: Floyd was one of the stars at the combine, and he could be available to New York with the No. 16 pick. The Jets can go in a lot of different ways, but I think safety and right tackle are bigger needs.
