I particularly love how that blogger pointed to Crabtree’s love for clothes and fashion as a sure sing he’ll be a diva/team disruption. I mean its not like an old school non-diva/disruption like Jerry Rice would have be meticulous about his appearance/clothes/uniform like that, right? That looked to me like someone had to crank out one more draft article about 3 minutes before their deadline. …."lets see who is a really high profile guy I can take a less than obvious approach too without having to do a lick of research…hmmm….Stafford and Sanchez have been over dissected already, nobody cares about linemen….can’t really defend the Raiders pick…..Crabtree sucks! "

That’s some great analysis, coach! Who does your due diligence, Bernie Madoff?

here’s a guy who most likely has not watched one second of coach’s film on crabtree, has not talked to him personally, has not quizzed him on his football knowledge, has not run a foot race against him, and generally has zero credentials as a talent evaluator, yet he’s criticizing an NFL coach — one who’s a hall of fame player no less — for his analysis of crabtree and questions whether that coach has done his “due diligence” when researching crabtree.

let’s see, who should we trust in talent evaluation? a “freelance writer” or an NFL coach/hall of fame player?

another money quote is

Feet requiring surgically-implanted screws are often a bad omen for a young professional athlete.

says who? do you have any evidence for that mr. “freelance writer?” can you give even one example of a player doomed by this “omen?”

for Halloween last year and just now decided to send it into uni-watch, check it out, it’s in the ticker.

Thanks much you guys for the linkage and all the hits. Niners Nation is the kingmaker of the internet!
