As they begin developing their front legs, you will notice them developing a slimmer body - more frog shaped. They are fully developing lungs at this point and are absorbing their gills. They are mixing breathing methods through this stage.

Once they start absorbing their tails, stop feeding. They will be getting all the nutrients they need from the tail they are absorbing.

As for some "falling behind" so to speak. It happens. It is normal for only 70-60% of tadpoles to make it from egg to froglet. Natures way - that is most likely why they have so many eggs to begin with. Be patient with the stragglers, they may end up morphing fine, if a little late, or they may pass before fully morphing/ morph into a runt.
