I never read the bleacher report. It's a blog. These guys have zero experience...anyone can get a page there.

lol he said we are asking crabtree to be an indentured servant. then he says he will automatically play as well as fitz or boldin. he says teams dont pay recievers and then uses boldin as an example when his teammate fitz got a huge contract last year. he is a freaking joke. then again most people who write articles on bleacher report are.

He is essentially expecting to get paid top 6 or 7 money when you factor in his expectations plus the money he is losing by refusing to sign, perhaps even top 5 money.

Another major question for him, if he goes in the draft next year he will be drafted lower based on being out of football a year + prima donna reputation he earned. So, who is going to draft him later then top 10 but give him near top 5 money?

Crabtree defeats logic....

Well stated, reasonable, logical post. An excellent explanation of why the Niners have the leverage in the negotiations, IMHO.

Only way Crabby "wins" is by holding out for the year, a self suspension that costs him millions, as you point out, and risks damaging his career for good.

He's already hurt his reputation, and is probably even now spending the last endorsement money he'll ever see.

Crabby defeats logic indeed.

If you care to waste two more minutes on this tripe click on his byline and look at some of his recent articles. He'a a Raider fan. Hardly objective. But he does hold TWO . . . count em TWO, AA degrees.

I see this as a positive sign. In the end, I think Michael Crabtree and the San Francisco 49ers will find a way to get this thing done. Yes, I'm frustrated by this situation, but I've always thought Crabtree's "advisors" were more to blame. Maybe Crabtree is beginning to see the error of his ways?

Again, I think a deal will get ironed out! Michael Crabtree WILL be a 49er!

The biggest problem about Crabtree isnt Parker, are his pseudo lame counselors who are telling him how big he is, like the crew surrounding a hip hop singer, just sucking his blood and ruinning his future, those are the people that he should leave behind if he really want to succed BTW Parker must pay the broken dishes

Hope this soap opera ends soon also D Sanders should close his big mouth he's not helping anyone with his vicious comments

too late.... i clicked it this guy has no clue what he is talkin' bout. most of the zoners would be better at ACTUALLY LOOKING UP FACTS, than this guy is. btw OUR quarterback isn't even the closest to being the highest paid player. why wouldn't we give crabtree a huge contract after he shows he can play like fitz or boldin. made no sense at all

And they mocked me at the time.

Well, it seems like it is getting closer to that possibility.

Actually, I think the niners trade him before he gets to the draft.

I found that bleacherreport article amusing. That's exactly how Michael Crabtree and his advisors feel.

Dieon was saying that crabtree dont need money right now, but ironically money is the reason why he's holding out. Prime time needs to get a new head.
