Will Konrad Reuland make the roster ? | Page 4

NeeJ49er · 2011-08-24T08:11:21-07:00

I really like this kid to make the roster as our # 3 TE...he has great hands and also good size to be a blocking TE, Harbaugh refers to him as "Novacek" because he never drops a pass ...I'd like to see him get a couple snaps with the first unit, he looks solid and could be a real steal and give us another weapon in the passing game in Harbaughs three TE packages

Konrad is a badass old school name. I think of a Russian bear drinking vodka when i think of Konrad. Might as well spell it KonBad or BadAss

It may come to pass that the 9ers have more confidence in their 3rd TE than their 2nd WR. If so, they will play a lot of 3 TE sets, thus starting Konrad with VD and Walker. Usually teams have a good blocking, no catch TE to come in and replace the starting TE situationally, but the 9ers have VD. Rueland may come in as a receiver replacement or addition for a WR. Sounds like a winning proposition!

YEah he will make the team and when he gets in the game teams will think run only to be caught of guard when he catches a 10 yarder and then turns it up field rumbling bumbling stumbling

for a 25 yard gain!!!

He needs to be called Brent Jones, we ain't the damn Cowboys.

He's one of my surprise stars of TC. Just made the best of his experience and translating it to the NFL game which appeared evident in last week's game. The dude will allow Harbaugh to run that 3-TE set that worked so well in college. With Davis, Walker and Reuland, Roman can do so much on every down especially first. I know we will still get a dose of vanilla tonight, but it would be nice to seem some more down field throws to the TEs. Still, he definitely a bright spot for us.
