Harbaugh said "best hands" and didn't specify for catching a football. Perhaps local artists often show up at the 9er facility asking if they can draw Crabtree's hands. Or Revlon's advertising agency has called...

I think Jim's saying that "Crabtree has the most natural, strong hands to make catches of anyone he's seen"
... but that doesn't mean "he catches all that he should".. just that when he does make the catch, he usually snags them with that glimpse of eliteness. (<--- made up word, don't curr)

Aww...but does he say "catches of the footballs?"
Seriously, I like the way he catches as he almost snaps the ball out of the air with his hands. Often prevents DBs from intercepting as he has long arms and strong hands.
Even the Great J Rice dropped balls so I'll wait a few years to see just where MC stands among receivers.

Yeah, I too definitely see the pluckage ability in Crabtree. Hope to see him quicker this season, and above all, NO volley-tipping INTs!!!

I just loved watching Jenkins blow by corners and getting open so well in the texans game...they don't have the fastest corners in the league...but, it shows that on average he's going to be able to get open for alex...if we let him play

Did you want to see more of #49ers Frank Gore against the Texans? So did Frank Gore …
Gore: "When I got out there against the Houston Texans I wanted to keep running, especially when I got that first carry (a 14-yard gain). That was a pretty good run. I wanted to keep that rhythm and keep going. But I've got to listen to the coach. He knows what's best for me … Whenever it's time for me to go, hopefully, Green Bay, I'm going to be full speed."
