### The Dolphins were very impressed by how rookie rookie cornerbacks Jamar Taylor and Will Davis looked in rookie minicamp. One source said they appeared more polished than Vontae Davis and Sean Smith in their first camp.

So what did Tannehill notice from studying every one of his rookie snaps?

“There were a lot of throws where my feet were not set, fundamentally not sound, and the ball isn’t as accurate as you want it to be,” he said. “You look at the reasons for that and I hope to correct it, so it’s not an issue going forward.”

There’s no sugarcoating this: His 65.3 rating on third down was lowest among qualifying quarterbacks – a number driven down by seven interceptions. He said that must improve.

Teammates rave about how he ran off-season voluntary workouts.

“He’s becoming a leader,” receiver Brian Tyms said. “He would take us into the bubble , for an hour and a half or so every day, and we would go through our route tree. He works like hasn’t made it yet.”

“Everything I heard about him coming in has proved to be true – he’s as advertised,” Tannehill said. “He’s the fastest guy I’ve ever thrown to.

Man, you can just tell how dedicated Tannehill is when it comes to improving his game. I'm absolutely stoked to see what he can/will do this season. He has the mentality of a true franchise QB.

I'd be dedicated to with what he has waiting for him at home...what a life, work on your game during the day, work on your game when you get home.

I keep hearing that Wallace is a "one trick pony" and these clips didn't do a lot to dispel that idea, but geez, isn't being a great receiver about getting open ?? Well, he was open, by a lot, on every one of those plays (not counting the deep out in the endzone) and that's what counts. I don't see too much of an issue with him...everyone knows he's got speed and yet he still gets open...that's ok with me, no matter what the route run, so long as he catches the ball and scores...

Route running ni route running, compadre. Olvidate de eso, acere. We don't need no stinking route running, my friends. Leave that to someone else. What you see in those clips, that's what we need. That's what you should want. Any time. Any day. At any price. Gimme the best route runner in the world. If he can't hit grand slams, what I want him over Wallace for? I want touchdowns, mijo.

Word to your moms Wallace came to drop bombs. We might as well rename old Joe the House of Pain.

"...dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood..."

The acceleration in the Titans clip is impressive. Goes from half speed to warp speed at will. Even if he's not perfect in the other facets of his game, defenses will have to respect the speed and lay off, which should do wonderful things for the offense as a whole.

The Steelers/Jets game was on yesterday and Wallace ran more than just Go and Fades. Good number of outs and comebacks from what I saw.

Thus Brandon Gibson, for anyone who has any questions about the thinking behind that signing. Gibson ranks extremely high on third down, IIRC.

The play against Jason Allen is ridiculous, guys, Jason Allen is fast and he turned and ran at the snap with a 10 yard head start, full speed, and Wallace smoked his Lilly ass, damn, I remember that play, I couldn't believe it, Allen really was runnin full speed..lol

I'm waiting to see the presence and leadership skills, haven't quite seen them yet imo, but I believe he is very competitive and tough, willing to throw his body on the line, so he might be a different type leader.

Thanks..cool stuff..the two plays one against the titans and the other against the cardinals, 85 and 93 yards, just pure speed and throwing the ball as far as the Qb can lol, if you pause on every play right before the ball gets into his arms lets say five yards in the air, you will see why he's not just a speed guy, check out the cradle position of his arms, so perfect and consistent, made for a new born baby, check out his head and eyes, completely focused, just looks the same in every shot,basically his deep ball mechanics are superb.

His type of speed shows you tangible evidence of how space will be created for other players, and why his contract number is so high, it's not just about numbers with him to understand his impact, he's dangerous to a def coordinator, as dangerous as any player in the league not named Calvin. Johnson.

It's the same reason why darrelle Revis deserves to get paid five million more than the other guys.

the 2nd one I thought Alex posted the first one twice, only the user put 54 yards instead of 53... When I found out it wasn't I sighed
