Well they aren't that far off. When we had Masoli we didn't. Ed Dickson should have been our leading receiver his SR year but he went what seemed like months without catching a pass. Last year DT went to Paulson a lot & I think that will only continue. But we do have a rep of not using our TEs enough since we went to the spread, especially with the talent we've had at the position.
Ed Dickson still had a productive year, though he could have been targeted more often. Their thoughts were that tight ends come here to rot, and that hasn't been the case since Tim Day in my opinion(still don't know why we didn't use him much his final year).
Yeah I don't agree with what they were saying, its obviously just sour grapes. But we do have reputation for not using our Tes enough & its not completely unwarranted.

Fair enough, I don't think we necessarily disagree either. I definitely remember years where I wondered why the hell we didn't throw to certain tight ends enough, so point accepted. Tim Day especially is a player I felt we under-utilized, and at times Dickson wasn't used enough as well.
