Patriots jump to the lead for Dalton

[muskiesfan]

As of now, it appears that the Bengals royally misplayed this. While I have no insider information, it seems that they could've gotten the same 4th round pick for Dalton that the Bears gave up for Foles. Obviously they didn't feel that was enough.

I'd say that any team that may have any interest will wait until after the draft and for the Bengals to just cut Andy. Last year at the deadline was the time to deal him. Now it would appear that cutting him is their only option.
