I think Crabtree falls in the category of a guy getting through college on talent he was born with, which I'm sure happens a lot.
His rookie holdout was downright bizarre and accomplished nothing. Any other player would have told his agent to get out of the way but Crabtree just stuck his head in a hole and acted like all he could do was let his agent handle it.
He just hasn't shown the effort people expect from a 1st rounder and I can understand why lots of fans expect more from him.
He stays in shape and worked hard in college. Just not sure he will work hard now that he is a millionaire. I still believe he will be very good.
