true....

None of what has happened makes a lick of sense unles there was tampering. And since the 9ers filed tampering charges Crappee comes in lickity split and signs?!!! Then the Jets go and get Braylon Edwards!! Come on! How obvious is all of this?! I hope the Jets get nailed and we get something from them for destroying our number one pick's rookie season. There is way more damage done here than there was with Lance Briggs.

FINALLY!! Can't wait to get him in pads and see what he can do at practice. Hope it isn't a distraction leading up to the ATL game though

I guess I'll be in the minority here, and say I am NOT happy about this signing. Especially the timing of it. IF the NFL was going to actually do anything over the tampering accusations, our best bet to get someting done - and the best chance to maximize the penalty against the Jets (and compensation for us!) was when Crabtree wasn't signed and it looked like we were going to lose the pic altogether.

I was really hoping we wouldn't even consider signing him until after the NFL ruled. Now they will just look at it as "Oh well, so he missed out on a few months of a 5-year contract". Stupid move.

I'm talking about all those who went off in the Crabtree discussion threads who did not want his "greedy, selfish, diva, no passion for football ass". Those who went off and called him every name in the book, those who said he did not want to play here.

The Jets to be fair were also interested in Marshall just a few weeks ago. They have been trying to get a WR upgrade for a hot minute. I do believe they tampered however the trade for Edwards does not prove anything really.

It certainly looks fishy but that doesn't spell it out.

Does anyone find it odd that the same day Crabtree signs the Jet trade for Braylon Edwards?

Outstanding news to wake-up to. Let's roll.

Finally! Crabs to go along with our VD!

This is a joyful day for all Niner fans...I followed his career at TT pretty close, we used to live in Lubbock. This guy's a baller, no doubt about it...once he's in playing shape and Sullivan coaches him up, he'll do some damage. Talk about a receiving corps now...woah. He's got a lot of work ahead of him...but something tells me he'll handle it well. He should be able to give the offense a needed shot in the arm...gives Hill another target and defenses something else to worry about.

Well, I'm glad this finally got done. I hope he can be the player everybody is hoping he can. Time to put all the nonsense behind and move forward.

I really didn't want him any more, but he is signed and good or bad he is a Niner (at least for now). So regardless of how I felt yesterday, I am not going to try to create drama. I just hope is is worth all this trouble.
