I've been hard on Crabs....but the 49ers bear apart of the blame. I mean we have over paid for players in the past that hasn't done squat to help this team.

Oh well.



"Overpaying" for players with a proven NFL track record is one thing. Overpaying for a 22 year old sophomore is entirely different.

Truthfully I don't even understand why fans care about that(It's NOT YOUR MONEY).....I do believe our track record for first round picks haven't been that great....with the exception of Willis and Peterson. We drafted VD #6 overall....was he worth that?? IMO No.

Regardless of what people say....this kid is talented and will be a #1 WR in this leauge. I understand people are upset but if you take the emotion away you will see this is a no win situation for either party. THE TEAM has spoken out and said Crabtree will sign so I would think there doing everything in there power to make it so.......just my thoughts.

Actually it is our money. We support these players one way or another.

And that's going to stop?? your going to stop supporting the team if they overpay for him? Some fan you are.....lol


You sure told me

yes it’s not our money but do you remember how life was in salary cap hell.. it took this franchise like 3 years (and getting reed of very good players Jeff, Deese, Hearst, Newberry, amongst others) to get a well balance cap and we fans don’t want to go back to the days were one player thinks he need 10 more millions of what everybody knows he should earn and just pay him because he think he is a star... then every time the team negotiate a contract every agent will want millions more of what they actually are worth...

no way pay him what the slot said and then in a few years if he is all he said he is pay him like a star….

gi niners

We got that way by Overpaying Free agents (We bought the 94 superbowl, fan weren't complaining then)and not building through the draft. Our approach has changed and that's why were not going to be back in salary cap hell. It has nothing to do with overpaying draft picks.....and I'm not saying it has to be that drastic...but for god sakes man they can budge a little....they can continue to push for communication....I agree Crabs is getting bad advice....but that doesn't take away from his abilities.

There are several people in Michael Crabtree’s life advising him to change agents to get a deal done with the San Francisco 49ers, according to several sources. It is unknown whether Crabtree is 100% loyal to his current agent Eugene Parker and his stance that he is taking against the organization to get a huge deal.

why unsure? could be a blessing to getting a deal done

I agree. If Crab wants to sign the deal the 49ers offered and save face, this is one way of doing it.

The only reason for him to change agents is to save face, because he isn't going to get a better deal.

[WishfulThinking] Myae you're right. He wants to sign but doesn't want to come out as a loser. So what better way to do it than change agents, accept the 49ers proposal and blame everything on your FORMER agent?? [/WishfulThinking]

Isn't there a rule that if you fire an agent you have wait a certain amount of time before you hire another? How long?

I concur. While interesting, this story does not make any sense to me. If Crabs tells Parker to take the deal, Parker takes the deal, PERIOD.

Please check your source and post a credible link. I believe that Radovich was signed to the Vikings PS, not the Niners. The Niners 8th PS spot is still open to absorb a Crabtree bump from the 53-man roster.

No... I didn't tell you anything....I just think fans will continue to support the team...regardless if they over pay for Crabs or not.
I just want him to fire Eugene' wack ass and get into a NINER UNIFORM!
