Dolphins QB Beck learning from Romo's former Cowboys coach
Although Josh McCown said he expects to be the Dolphins' starting quarterback, you won't hear any similar declaration from John Beck. But Beck explained last week why he believes he has improved, and insists he doesn't care if the Dolphins draft a quarterback in the early rounds. In two months working with new quarterbacks coach David Lee, Beck said he has received more individual coaching on technique than he did all last season. ''It was hard last year because I was the third guy," he said. "Now, it's been nice because we've been able to focus a little bit of time on me. Coach Lee definitely has helped me. I've made a lot of strides since the end of the season in some smaller detailed things" -- including delivery and footwork. For weeks, Beck and Lee have been watching Beck's game tape as a teaching tool. Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo credits Lee for his development when they were together in Dallas. -- Miami Herald
