Default Sharpness of lenses???

I know this is a totally newbie question but it's driving me nuts!
I've got a 16-35 2.8 L lens that just doesn't look as sharp as I'd like it to be at 2.8.
Are wide angle lenses typically "soft" compared to say a 24-70 wide open?
I've got a 17-35 2.8 L that's giving me similar results. Or am I just unlucky to have two lenses in need of adjustment?
Thanks!
