Don't all geniuses do 'crazy' things in everyone else's eyes before the result can be seen? Just because the average person never thought of that idea, they see it as 'crazy' or insane. Except that it all works out in the end...:P
I think Gandalf couldnt' tell what would happen in the future, but had vague ideas...like when he said he had a feeling gollum still had a part to play in the end? (about the ring?) he just decided on the best course to take and hoped for the best
