Having a Pro Bowl TE that never plays doesn't help us win any games...so no matter how you slice it his production is low.
re: Kroft - If you see the field in the NFL you're going to get atleast some numbers. Like a #2 WR on most teams will get 600-800 yards. A TE will get 400-500 yards as a starter. It's just how the ball is distributed.
To the question: No. That was always my criticism of ASmith... his inability to play at a consistently high level due to injuries (or apathy).
Which if that's all you take out of five years of drafting — that arguably the guy with some of the most potential was often injured — then I can see where you'd be disappointed.
