Wow, I am getting flamed again for this. All I am saying is that Reed didn't produce up to standards that you would hope for a #2 or #3 receiver for a few years. He appears to have gotten himself back on track.
Yes, receiver depends on the quarterback and offensive ability. However, Reed battled injury in '04, and that excuses that season. However, in the following two years, he didn't earn the trust of the QB enough to warrant enough throws. Yes, the playcalling sucked, but a conservative offense that refuses to throw the ball down the field would allow for a possession receiver like Reed to get more throws.
That all said, I am happy that he is finally playing at the level of a #2 receiver.
