He's def been wasted, that's for sure.

1 of my gripes with Miles is that he sometimes punishes players for what they aren't instead of using them for what they are. DeSean Smith isn't a 300lbs blocking TE, so he barely plays. Need to cater to your players strengths, not punish them for their weaknesses. And I'm not saying DeSean should be playing majority of the snaps or whatever. But in obvious pass situations, there's no excuse to not have him in the game. Put him at FB and run him out in the flats or line him up in the slot or out wide as a WR. Take advantage of the mismatches that he creates.

And considering how drops have plagued us this year and Smith arguably has the best hands on the team, he should have been on the field a lot more. Whenever he gets in, Harris looks his way a good bit. Problem is that he rarely gets in. Kid should have played a lot more. Period.

I guess you missed the part about Smith being hurt.

I challenge y'all to do a lil research before you post.
