That's sort of my point. Conner was as highly-heralded as any of the Block O Three, and yet hasn't played much. Hopefully he'll reach the level we expected of him when he first came on board...

I would assume he'll be a key back up on the interior line this season.. and probably a frontrunner for one of the open guard spots in 2009..

That being said, i think our two weakenst linemen last season were Rehring and Person.. so i hope Connor has a fair shot at both their guard positions this yr

Is Connor still improving? I see he is still on the roster and on the 2 deep but I see very little news about him.
