A little break from the other stuff going on.

Quarterback: Ryan Tannehill, MIA (+9.9)

It feels odd to be going in a different direction from Tom Terrific, but his erratic play at this point has left the door wide open for the second year Dolphins quarterback to squeeze in. The highs have been higher for Brady, but the consistent play of the Miami man earns him the nod…for now.

Running Back: Fred Jackson, BUF (+1.6)

It wasn’t easy. There’s a real lack of contenders for this spot but Jackson, outside of two fumbles, is the stand out candidate.

Tight End: Jeff Cumberland, NYJ (-2.0)

With Rob Gronkowski not playing enough snaps it was really slim pickings at tight end. So, after avoiding a full back I had to go with one and Cumberland is the best of a bad bunch.

Wide Receivers: Brian Hartline, MIA (+7.3), Danny Amendola, NE (+3.6) and Stevie Johnson, BUF (+2.1)

Hartline has benefited from the presence of Mike Wallace and has continued his productive ways. After that things got a little murkier, though Johnson deserves credit for the job he has done with the quarterbacks the Bills have used. The last choice was always going to be a slot receiver and but for injury Brandon Gibson would be that guy. Here’s hoping Amendola can stay healthy.

Note: The AFC North is dropping the FB and running 3-wide for the purposes of the All-Division team to reflect the performance of both positions.

Tackles: Nate Solder, NE (+19.8) and Austin Howard, NYJ (+7.4)

If not for injury this would be an all Patriots unit, but I’m sticking with a policy that if you’re on injured reserve it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie. Instead Solder, our top ranked tackle, is partnered by Austin Howard who has developed into as consistent a linemen as the Jets have.

Guards: Richie Incognito, MIA (+6.3) and Kraig Urbik, BUF (+3.8)

Despite whatever is written about Incognito with his off the field behavior, he has played pretty well on the field. We’ll leave it at that with Logan Mankins letting himself down in pass protection to such a level I can’t choose him. Urbik is the right guard and owes a debt of gratitude to the ability of Willie Colon to keep drawing flags.

Center: Mike Pouncey, MIA (+7.9)

Nick Mangold has seen his form desert him and Pouncey is priming to set him up as the division’s top center. Pouncey really doesn’t get the respect he’s due.

Amazing with the amount of Tannehill's turnovers he still has the highest rating in the AFC East, 4th in the AFC and 10th in the entire NFL.
 
Dude probably missed Clay based on his FB jersey number but he's much better than Cumberland. Shouldn't even have mentioned Cogs since he likely won't play another snap in a Dolphins uniform and perhaps not in any other on the league. We definitely have the most talented roster in the division, time to let that be seen on the field and forget about what's happening outside of it.This offensive line might actually turn out better without those two and with the potential motivation proving themselves might bring.

Clay's blocking brings him down

Nice to see Tannehill getting the respect he has earned....who would have thought the Dolphins would have the best QB in the AFC east at this point...

Clay has stepped up in Keller's absence but like Keller, his blocking is not his strong suit. Cumberland, though probably not as good a receiver is more well rounded.
 
Wake , Grimes, and Fields were also named, with Starks, Odrick, and Soliai mentioned as so close.

This is exactly why we don't use ratings alone to evaluate players.
