A three-year starter at Ole Miss, Todd Wade snagged first-team All-SEC and second-team All-America honors his senior season before the Miami Dolphins selected him in the second round of the 2000 NFL Draft (the team’s first draft choice that year). Wade immediately became a fixture at right tackle for the Dolphins, starting 63 of the team’s 64 regular season contests and three playoff games during his four years in Miami. Along the way, he was selected to the NFL’s All-Rookie Team in 2000 and helped lead the way for three 1,000-yard rushing seasons (Lamar Smith in 2000 and Ricky Williams in 2002 & 2003). Wade would play in four more NFL seasons, including two in Houston and two in Washington. In The Tank, Todd provides insight on playing with both Williams and Smith, discusses scuba diving adventures with Zach Thomas and Jason Taylor that may have gone too far, fondly recalls the characters in the Dolphins offensive line room, reflects on epic training camp brawls with the Dolphins defensive line, reveals his Marvel alter ego, and in a Fish Tank first, goes into full karaoke mode to close the show.
