Wallace: Dolphins Will Compete Immediately

Newly signed Dolphins receiver Mike Wallace said in an interview with ESPN's "Sportscenter" on Wednesday that he is confident the new-look Miami team will compete with the New England Patriots "from day one". The former Pittsburgh Steeler signed a five-year, $60 million contract to join the Dolphins on Tuesday during the beginning of the free agent signing period.

When asked of the timeframe for his new team to compete with New England for AFC East bragging rights, Wallace pulled no punches. We're in this to compete every year," Wallace said. "We expect to compete as soon as we stop on the field. from Day 1, we're going to compete with everybody and we're going to let the chips fall where they will."

Miami also announced the signings of linebackers Raven Dannell Ellerbe and Philip Wheeler on Wednesday. Ellerbe signed a five-year, $35 million deal according to the Baltimore Sun. Wheeler signed a five-year, $26 million deal, with $13 million guaranteed.
