When will Crabtree make his 1st start?

I think week 10
I'll take a guess. How about Thursday night against the Bears?

Next year. He needs time to learn the system. Bruce will be gone which will open up some room to crack the depth chart.
Houston

lol hes not going to start his first NFL game. not when we have so many other WR's who have been through camp, preseason, and the season thus far who know alot more about what theyre doing.

at very best i could see him making his first start 2 or 3 weeks later if he shows the ability to learn quickly.

remember, Brandon Jones is coming back too, and he probably has the edge on Crabtree for the first shot at starting.

I'd like to say "worst poll ever"... if it wasn't for the 10 polls on the first page that are worse.

Week 10 sounds about right. That should give him time to get most of the plays down and we can start fazing Bruce out of the starting lineup.

I'm sure he will get playing time as soon as he is ready. Maybe not start.

yeah why? it's a relevant question
I picked next year cause I don't want to get my hopes up. This is going to be a rough schedule coming up and I wonder if Big Mike will put a rookie WR into the starting lineup after being on the team a few weeks.

Doesn't make sense to me.
Starting is more symbolic than anything. After the 1st play, most teams freely subsititute based on down and distance.

It really doesn't matter if he starts or not, as long as he performs.
