The Dolphins offered Ed Reed a Contract and he politely declined. He was also offered a deal by the New England Patriots.
Ed Reed cited his wanting to re-unite with his Old DC in Rex Ryan and a familiarity with the defense for signing with the Jets.
I have no info on how they were gonna use him.

No surprises there. I'm glad he didn't go with New England. I expect him to be used only in certain packages with the Jets. He's certainly not an every down player at 35. -
The guy has a lot of instincts.He does need a lot speed to be at the right spot at the right time.He will be a situational player I am sure.He would have been better off with the Patriots who at least have chance at the playoffs.The Jets have none.

I think the Dolphins and Patriots honestly just wanted to keep him away from the Jets.
Also he probably could have helped both teams.cuchulainn likes this. -

but he rejected Miami like many players before him and unfortunately the many players after him that soon will. even draft picks are going to avoid this team and that is sickening to me.

Great, back to no one wants to play for or coach the Phins. Back to looking at the second tier, not that Ellerbe and Wheeler are first tier.

Rex has his fault's, mostly his bluster (like some posters on here) but he's good defensive coach IMO, who players love to play for.
The stej still sucks though. And always will.DePhinistr8, Ophinerated, MrClean and 2 others like this. -

Nobody really knew that Jimmy Graham, TY Hilton, etc...where gonna be good except for about 40 or 50 wackos on thephins.com message board. How do you make draft decisions based on what those people say?DePhinistr8, DOLPHAN1 and Bpk like this. -

Head honchoes get paid to have vision. Damn shame. I want to believe, but they just don't help things.
