The reverberations from Rob Gronkowski’s record-breaking 2011 season are still being felt across the league.

His success will likely spawn a new breed of seam-busting tight ends because the NFL is, of course, a copycat league. This, perhaps, was the Dolphins’ reasoning behind taking Michael Egnew in the third round of last month’s draft.

CBSSports.com’s Rob Rang could see that being the case, believing Egnew could be used to create mismatches for Dolphins receivers similar to the way Joe Philbin used Jermichael Finley in Green Bay.

There’s a consensus among draft evaluators that the Dolphins got very good value with Rishard Matthews, one of their seventh-round picks.

After his first NFL practice, Matthews joined The Finsiders to talk about what he noticed and what he’s looking to work on in advance of his rookie season.

Matthews, like several others, noticed the up-tempo pace that Joe Philbin runs practice with.
