Dolphins opponents will 'fear' DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill says

When the Dolphins selected wide receiver DeVante Parker in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft, they considered themselves lucky he fell to No. 14. But injuries slowed Parker at the beginning of his rookie season, and when he came back, it took him a while to adjust to the quicker game.

Yet quarterback Ryan Tannehill is excited about what Year 2 will bring from the highly touted playmaker out of Louisville.

Despite catching only 26 passes for 494 yards and three touchdowns as a rookie, Parker will be feared by other teams, Tannehill believes.
