Antonio Brown, Plax, Heath Miller is the only decent option and he’s fragile.

At least the Ravens still have Torrey Smith and Jacoby Jones. 8-8 will be a hurdle for pittsburgh next season.

Would’ve been nice to keep him in the burgh, but not at that price. He does open up the field for others, no doubt. Hart line probably has a great season. And it’s not fair to say he only had one route, he had 2, the go and the bubble screen. But going across the middle was definitely not his thing.

Steelers fan are going to burn his jersey too? Also send him death threats? I did not watch many dolphins games but the ones I did, it seemed like there was always a receiver open but QB just did not have time to throw the ball. I would think they would have kept Long and put Martin at RT. But Im not the owner. Btw Lets see how many people jump on the dolphins bandwagon. HTTR!!!

Miami over-paid a TON and they’ll pay for it for years to come. Dude only runs straight, has chicken arms, and has a piss poor attitude. Openly stated he loses focus/ interest during games if he’s not involved early. Clearly another diva like TO.

How many times do I have to tell you a dolphin is a mammal not a fish. Dolphins swim with fish & eat fish and can’t breath air through water like fish rather they have a hole in their head to breath & hold their breath underwater. No wonder you guys have only been able to put together one winning season in the last 9 years since you don’t even know what you are. No thanks to you hopefully Wallace doesn’t think he’s about to sign with fish, otherwise he’ll have an identity crisis like the lot of you & won’t have half a chance this year again.

That’s all he was worried about since the day the Steelers got him. It’s not about Championships or who’s throwing to him or the team. It’s always been all about the money with Mike.
Congratulations Mike! You got what you wanted with Miami. The money, the money and the money.

My only negative on Mike is he seemed to give up and pout a lot when, in a career year, he should have aimed for the pro bowl.

I can only hope a change in scenery does him some good, and I hope the ‘fins get their money’s worth.

I will never forget that slant he ran last year, for like 8,952 yards or something. Didn’t stop until he hit the parking lot! Hehe

He’s a dynamic talent and fun to watch when his head is in it. If he plays like last year the Dolphins are going to regret this day for a very long time. A ton of pressure is now on him to live up to this deal.

Hilarious, Darin apparently ignores/doesn’t read Florio either because he’s been saying, “the Dolphins are getting played, Wallace wants to get paid” at every opportunity he can.

You had a good run in Pittsburgh and deserved to get paid. I, as a Steelers fan, don’t truly believe he’s a one-trick pony. I do, however, believe he was distracted last year in Pittsburgh due to the contract situation.

Miami got a heck of a wide receiver and I wish them well.

GO STEELERS!

Dolphins wanted to make a splash in FA though- needed to really if you look at tickets sales, stadium funding, etc. I guess they got what they wanted.

That should make you wonder… gee… was…he…really…worth… that…much?

Lots of red flags and questions about his motivation after getting paid.

It only $6m guaranteed, so its not the end of the world, but don’t think its enough for the Fins to finish ahead of the Patriots in their division, which is what matters.

Dont care cause the one trick is hard to find in the nfl. And to all the steeler fans who think they dont need him theres a reason why they offered wallace a 10 mil a year contract at the start of the year.

Steelers Fans say good riddance = Sour Grapes

Most Self -Appointed GM’s say “one trick pony” = one heck of a trick! It is now Fins 11 Offense against 10 Defense, gotta keep that Safety overtop

The other 30 Teams Fans ” we overpaid” = really, 32 Touchdowns in 4 years. I bet if YOUR Team signed him you would not be writing. See Steelers

Like it or not… Miami is going back to the top of the NFL. Football is cyclic.

I think Miami overpaid but we will see.

flash1283,

As a fan of the other AFCE team stating that the Fish are now a solid second place team is insulting to the Dolphins. At this point the Bills and especially the Jets are possibly top five draft teams come 2014

On attempts of 20 yards or longer toward the right sideline,Tannehill had a quarterback rating of 108.7,according to Pro Football Focus. Tannehill had a rating of 101.7 on deep middle attempts of at least 20 yards. He struggled slightly on deep passes near the left sideline with a 72.7 rating.

That should only improve with what wallace brings to the table and our new tight end. Also having tannehill with a yearr of experience. Exciting times phin fans
