Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger thinks the Dolphins are going to get their money’s worth from their five-year, $60 million contract with receiver Mike Wallace.
Roethlisberger told TheFinsiders.com that Wallace is a complete receiver, and much more than just a deep threat with great speed.
“Mike is way more,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s to Mike’s credit. Mike is really focused on becoming a better receiver. So he’s focused on his route running. He’s focused on running out-routes, and curl-routes, and in-routes and doing all the little things that’s required to become a great wide receiver. That’s why he, to me, is one of the best in the league, because he not only has that speed – he can run by anybody – but he can run routes and he can get open. That’s why we’re going to miss him, and the Dolphins are lucky to have him.”
Roethlisberger added that Wallace will be a strong presence in the Dolphins’ locker room.
“He’s a great teammate, obviously a great player, but I thought he was even better off the field. Just a great guy, great teammate. Miami is very lucky to have him because he’s a great player,” Roethlisberger said.

| Apparently Roethlisberger didn't want to make waves and is only going to say good things about a departing WR that he constantly under threw _________________ ![Big Ben on Wallace: Steelers will miss him, Dolphins are lucky Scaled.php?server=695&filename=trucky](http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg695/scaled.php?server=695&filename=trucky.png&res=medium) 60 MIN 53 MEN 1 NATION STEELERS NATION I am the MAN that created the MYTH that started the LEGEND Don't choose good when greatness is available! | |

| I find Ben's comments interesting. They definitely contradict the perception Steelers fans had of Wallace. If Wallace was still here, we could say that Ben was saying whatever he had to say to help team chemistry. But with Wallace gone, there's no need for him to say anything other that what he really believes. _________________ If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart.

| I liked Wallace but he's gone. Forget him and focus on who is still in Pittsburgh. _________________ Squawkin' and Hawkin'!!

| Holmes was an outstanding reciever but he's gone and so is Wallace. The fact is it was a business move and now we go on and fill the void with the next man up. Like truck said Ben under threw him so maybe we need someone not so fast ![Big Ben on Wallace: Steelers will miss him, Dolphins are lucky 3798349058](/users/3315/14/51/45/smiles/3798349058.gif) who can get open and be fearless. You know like a Hines Ward type. | |
