Rob should be utilized more in the receiving game and we all know it.
Guys like Travis Minor, Rob Konrad, and even Jed Weaver have the skills to make some really good things happen. It continually boggels my mind why they aren't used more.
Seems to me that if you have talent on the team, use it. Don't come in saying, "well I don't throw to the TE or the FB much cause that's not my scheme (I.E Gailey)
Adapt your damned scheme to the players around you!!!
Konrad being called garbage is like saying Zach Thomas was crap this year cause he couldn't stop the running game. Zach had no help from his big guys up front, and Konrad didn't have help from the O line. Hell Zach has been injured a bit himself the last couple years. Same with Gardener, is he garbage?
Sorry I take a bit of offense calling a guy like Konrad that.
