Number 2: Miami Dolphins

This leaves the Miami Dolphins as the team who will likely give the Buffalo Bills the most competition this year for the AFC East division title. Similar to the other teams, their question once again lies at quarterback.

The Dolphins are fully committed to last year’s fifth overall pick, Tua Tagovailoa. They also got him a number of new weapons that should help him be successful with wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and Will Fuller. These two alongside Davante Parker and tight end Mike Gesicki can create challenges for opposing defenses.

The Dolphins will also need to answer some questions on defense, particularly their front seven after trading away Shaq Lawson, and releasing Kyle Van Noy and Benardrick McKinney. Their secondary though is one of the best in the league with Byron Jones and Xavien Howard at cornerback.

The Miami Dolphins should be competitive this year and likely push for a playoff spot but in the end will fall short of surpassing the Buffalo Bills.
