Konrad is signed through next season, but he carries a price tag of more than $1 million, and that's a lot of money for a little-used fullback.The other issue is that Konrad is not a great blocking back, so he might become expendable if the next coach of the Dolphins wants a blocking specialist at the position.
To take Konrad's place on the active roster, the Dolphins signed off the Indianapolist Colts practice squad defensive back Deandre Eiland.
A rookie out of South Carolina, Eiland was a sixth-round pick of the Vikings in April but didn't make the active roster.
