Miami Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin said WR Mike Wallace looks and feels more comfortable in his second year with the team.
Footballguys View: It took Wallace way too long to start earning his keep last season and so the rumors he might be traded weren’t a shock, though his contract isn’t one that lent itself to that anyway. The Dolphins lined him up on the right-and only the right-90% of the time. They didn’t move him around, they didn’t use him in motion-they made it easy to shut him down. Now, some of that could have been him struggling with the playbook, but a year later, and in a new offense, we expect a lot more from him. As do the Dolphins. We see him as a WR3 with the upside to creep into WR2 status if he and quarterback Ryan Tannehill get on the same page early this year.
