Receivers will put out welcome mat for Wallace

[DKphin]

The first will occur when Antonio Brown picks up Mike Wallace Saturday at the Miami Dolphins' hotel and whisks him to Brown's place for dinner, where they will be joined by Emmanuel Sanders.

"It will be a great time to catch up at my house on the off time before we gather at the hotel," Brown said. "I'm looking forward to seeing my friend and catching up with family and seeing what's been going on."

Wallace should not expect a home-cooked meal from his former teammate, both of whom played in the Pro Bowl after the 2011 season.

Wallace likely will find an old friend covering him Sunday. Cornerback Ike Taylor often did so in past training camps, and this time it will be for real in a matchup of New Orleans natives.

"One thing he has that you can't coach is speed," Taylor said. "If you're just watching tape, he's been opening it up a lot, not just for himself but for lot of other guys. Hartline has been balling. You can say what you want, he's been kind of the man before Mike came over there.
"With the addition of Mike, it's even scarier."
Wallace attributed his uneven season to working into a new offense, a new team and getting comfortable with it. And while he said he's excited to return to Heinz Field, he does not think the fans will give him a good reception.
"I already know how my welcome is going to be. It's not going to be too pretty," Wallace said.

Light them up MW!!!!! Make em regret letting you go. If our line gives RT time, Wallace will have many oppertunities to make big plays.

Wallace could be an X factor here. Yes, he's gonna get covered, but he knows how to run on that poor field. That can only be a benefit.

He's been earning his paycheck the last few weeks. MW and Hartline are both on pace for 1000yd seasons. When was the last time we had 2 guys on our roster have 1000 yd receiving seasons?
