I just bought one, and I find it soft at 70mm f/2.8

This is almost consistent with the tests of the Tamron made by DxO which show that there is a drop of resolution in the edge at 70mm, but my 24-70 is soft at the center too.

Do you think that it might be a problem of my lens, or am I pixelpeeping too much?

Check for focus adjustment at 70mm.

Also, zoom lenses tend to be softer at the long end.
