MIAMI GARDENS – Byron Maxwell spent three years getting to know teammate Russell Wilson while facing the Seahawks quarterback each day in practice.

Still, Maxwell, acquired by the Dolphins this season after one year in Philadelphia, isn’t sure he can adequately prepare his fellow Miami Dolphins defenders for what they will face in Sunday’s season opener in Seattle.
“Practice is totally different than in the game,” Maxwell said. “Russ, sometimes I don’t want to say he’s a gamer, but the things he can do don’t necessarily show up in practice. He can escape. That’s a big part of his game.
“Really, practice can’t tell you what he can do.”
Maxwell spent his first four seasons with the Seahawks, a stint that included two Super Bowl appearances, including the 2013 championship. After signing with the Eagles last year he was traded to the Dolphins in March in a deal that including swapping first round picks.
Maxwell’s Dolphins debut also will be his first game against his former team.

He is right that you have to stay in your gaps. Anytime you play a mobile QB who loves to run, you have to stay disciplined. Corners have to stay with their WR much longer because he will run around and find guys late

How often do they go deep to the speedy Lockette receiver?
