The NFL free agency period started off with a bang Tuesday when NFL.com's Jeff Darlington and Aditi Kinkhabwala reported that Mike Wallace had agreed to a contract with the Miami Dolphins.

The news of Wallace's move to South Beach created waves on Twitter, but it wasn't the only storyline players and NFL personalities were discussing.

Here are some of our favorites:
