Let me get this straight....

49ers first round draft pick Michael Crabtree has still not signed with the team because the team is ONLY offering him $20M with 16M guaranteed, which is less than the top receiver taken (No.7) and less than the No.8 player got but more than what No.11 got....
His cousin says that Crabtree would probably hold out and re-enter the draft next year so he can get the money he feels he deserves.
Ummm, could someone hand Crabtree the memo that he WASN'T A TOP FIVE DRAFT PICK AND HE WASN'T THE TOP RECEIVER TAKEN!?!?!?!

Sorry Mikey, but you just weren't either of those two cases.

Why in the WORLD would you risk your career (sorry, but you're going to fall off the radar if you don't play this season and ask Mike Williams if it is a good idea to skip a season and just try and "train to stay in shape") to go back and try to get drafted higher? Do you think honestly you'd be taken in the top ten again? Really?

You might be the top receiver taken (MIGHT be) but do you think you'll be a top ten pick after a YEAR OFF? Bradford, McCoy, Okie State LT, Nebraska DT, Gerald McCoy, Eric Berry, Taylor Mays, Greg Hardy, Sergio Kindle would put you at #10 again.

I just don't get the point of this holdout. Remember JaMarcus Russell? Dude. SIGN ALREADY! Quit being an idiot. You are ONLY hurting yourself at this point.

Michael Crabtree just doesn't like money.

He thinks he's John Elway. If you were that good man... you wouldn't be playing in a gimmick scheme in a dumpy town like Lubbock.

There I said it.

Good wide receiver. Not worth the scratch. It takes some doing to make the Raiders look smart.
