WR Crabtree worth a look?

After having a subpar season this year, his stock could drop. He also had surgery. Assuming Thomas Davis returns next year, he would be a great one to help his recovery.

Not sure we will go after a WR in the draft. Crabtree would be a nice addition if we don't plan too. What you guys think?

never very good to begin with. Just an average guy.

Rather try to nab someone in the 2nd3rd than deal with him. He's Hakeem Nicks 2.0

Yeh, I'd prefer a pick also, but the draft is tricky. You never know who will fall. It's possible they don't opt for a receiver during the draft. I just thought, for the right price, he would be a nice pickup.

Nah, I think I'll pass on Crabtree.  I don't mind going after a FA #2 WR to play opposite Benji, but I'm thinking someone more like Torry Smith from Baltimore.  Randall Cobb and/or Jeremy Maclin are ideally what we should look for, but their price tags are going to be stupid-high.  Smith will be 26 next month and can be had for a reasonable price, IMO.

 

Crabtree hasn't really lived up to the potential that he flashed at TT and has only really had one good season in the NFL.

Speed, Speed and more speed.  Have no problem with Crabtree as a receiver however what our team lacks is speed.  It's made a huge difference on the field when the slower veterans were replaced with faster rookies.   Same as our passing game improved from the moment Philly started seeing more time on the field.

 

I want to do what some of the other QB's in the league do.  Throw the quick out and have it go for 70 yards.  Speed guys dictate coverages, especially when you have a QB who can get them the ball.  Crabtree would be an upgrade on Cotchery, but a downgrade from KB.  I rather add speed next year, ie draft pick, ie Stephen Hill and see what happens.
