Jay wanted Weisbrod to be the guy scouting for him and giving him recommendations on players. If someone like Conroy didn't know what Weisbrod did then so be it. Did nobody listen to Jay's interviews in his time here? It's frequently John told him this John told him that and here we somehow prefer to belief that nobody knew what he did and therefore he did nothing? Did nobody catch the fact that Weisbrod ran the farm team with Conroy before Conroy took over?
I don't know how you missed this considering it was mentioned many, many times in this thread. But it came from Brian Burke's own mouth.
