I think we forget how old Tallstar is sometimes. He was already warrior when Crookedstar went through his injury as seen with him visiting RiverClan as deputy when Crookedstar as Stormkit was healing from his injuries.
Also because Bluestar's Prophecy is officially stated to start after Crookedstar's Promise with Warriors Wiki saying Bluestar was born a season after Crookedstar and Oakheart (https://warriors.fandom.com/wiki/Events timeline), it is also true that Tallstar was warrior when Bluestar was still a kit.
Bluestar's Prophecy and Crookedstar's Promise lists Tallstar as Tallpaw as he was still an apprentice at the very, very beginning, but it seems to have been near the end of his apprenticeship
Edit: Warrior not deputy

When was the last time you read Tallstar's Revenge? Or at least Crookedstar's Promise? Because this is completely false. Tallstar wasn't deputy when Stormkit got injured. In fact, he had only just returned and didn't even have an apprentice yet (although he would soon after). There are rumors about him becoming deputy during a Gathering Crookedjaw and Oakheart go to, but Reedfeather was still deputy when Crookedstar became leader, so it took him quite some time for him to get the position.

Yeah, I'm glad they got Tallstar being old right but the consequence was that every other important WindClan cat ended up insanely old too. Going by Tallstar's revenge barely anyone at all was born in Tallstar's leadership and there are basically no young cats in WindClan by the original series, all because they had to stuff everyone's births into Tallstar's revenge. So we have things like Mudclaw being a warrior during Heatherstar's leadership despite the New Prophecy making a point of how Tallstar was leader before Mudclaw was born. I had a feeling they would do this even before the book's release, since the Erins seem incapable of allowing any characters to be born during the main character's leadership (or that character's generation), nine lives or not. And don't forget Onestar being born during Heatherstar's leadership, and Vicky just having to confirm that Tornear is Mudclaw's age and Ashfoot and Morningflower are older than Onestar, and that's not even getting started on Deafoot and Barkface. Everyone else in WindClan was at least young enough to be an apprentice by Fire and Ice (sigh).

My bad.
