NFL Draft: Michael Crabtree, Interview With New Niner

[raydrzz]

54 Yards and  a TD! WOW~!

[lemaja73]

be careful what your agent is feeding you michael... your value is not going to get better if you sit out the season... be a part of the reconstruction of the EMPIRE!!!

[MC00315]

60 MILLION????

[patranus]

LOL - A team out of the "worst division in the NFL" almost won the super bowl. I mean seriously....it came down to what...the last play?

People crack me up.

[jethromayham]

Let him sit and then trade the woosy

[jestiferjestifer]

You'd have to be a moron to think he'll sit out the whole season. Chill out... It ain't gonna happen. He just wants to make as much money as DHB. And he won't. But he'll sign for sure.

[caramelkidd]

what an idiot for refusing the millions offered to him!

[NJthebest415]

actually, crabtree doesn't really want to play for the 49ers, if u seen his expression when the niners drafted him, he was like, in his head, fuckkk the niners?!?!...haha well go niners

[heroinandmoreheroin]

See you in the 2010 draft dipshit.

[caramelkidd]

If any team is stupid enough to draft him but by that time there will be a rookie salary cap

[bcherefosho]

If Crabtree enters the 2010 draft,he's not gonna be a top 5 pick like he wants,NFL teams have a highly anticipated class of players coming out,Tebow,McCoy,Bradford just to name a few and with his attitude and money hungry ass,i can see him as a 4th round pick

[brknimmortal]

what a fucken pussy! asking for more fucken money. Get rid of this pussy.

[ChannelTheGamer]

the next T.O.

[49erFaithful6T9]

I'm not sure if thatd be good or bad lol

[CMLAFLAMME]

No doubt man, thats like saying the next train wreck lol. Nah T.O. is a good player just didn't live up to what he coulda been.

[ctripod]

hahaha...."I play receiver" I like the look on his face like WTF you talking about what position would I play

[WorldRunning]

lol.. go to tosca?? haha

[bcherefosho]

the report from ESPN is that the 49ers are very close to signing contracts with Nate Davis and Glen Coffee and once these signings become official,Michael Crabtree will be the only 49er draftee yet to be signed

[bcbcbcbudsbudsbuds]

lol that reporter is such a fag, GO TO TOSCA MY FRIEND SEAN PENN GOES THERE, you namedropping loser

[USCTrojan12]

Wish my Raiduhs would have picked him up, Id prefer Crab over DHB, but both should do well in the bay area!

And for those who think Crabs a diva, well don't worry about that. Coach Singletary almost made this prima donna cry at a practice!

[montanastranger]

no sheatt. WTF. the reporter says weather is warmer in oakland than SF. There the same place as far as weather goes. Yes i've been to every state in the u.s. (truck driver). Props crabtree work your ass off though bud. Such a big opportunity 4 your career.

[cfbredraider]

Those were the dumbest questions ive ever heard. As my English professor always said, "there are no stupid questions, just stupid askers." These guys were definitely stupid askers. i.e. "What position would you play if you went to buffalo?" Are these guys fucking retarded? no wonder it seems as though Crab interviews bad, hes got nothing to work with.

[lambskilla]

the next T.O. the bad one

[brazy14]

crabtree is the next best thang at wr and he could play kr/pr yal sleep on his skills. he goin to be way better then bay his stats in one game will beat any other rookie wr out...hes a future hall of famer!!!

[ashbhammad]

You can never tell about WR's. There's always a couple of receivers that are overpicked because of the spread system etc. It's all about system fits. Let's see how all the WR's perform.

[FREDRICKG85]

Shut the F*ck up,u dam Diva,b more like Bey.Oh wait you aint fast enought,lol try 2 keep up...Naw all jokes aside i'd like to see him do well,F*ckit keep it West Coast.

[An0thrDream]

hope he does good. Seems humble, but also seems like he has a little "me first'' attitude. Lets just see how the season goes

[Bossrah]

Good luck Crab but calm down alil, this wasnt the best interview u did

[joshdavidian]

DHB!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Forget Crab-baby

[phishy59]

Lol Heyward-Bey is only a 76 on madden and crabtree's an 84...

[montezdariel]

the niners only won seven games last lol raiders havent won seven games in 6 or seven years.also jermarcus russel is no all pro qb lol im not a niner fan or raider.but being from texas i know how deadly mike crabtree is and this diva tag is bullshit.dude plays through injury he blocks etc lol i should hate crabtree he cost my horns a shot in the title game.this kid is the truth lol good luck with another james jett raider fan

[raydrzz]

You are out of yer mind. Crabtree is an arrogant punk with child like mentality. He is going to get his ass handed to him in the NFL. This guy will be the next TO as far as mentally and all the drama and baggage. Book that!

[montezdariel]

give me an example of him having a child like mentality.because at texas tech all he did was work hard on and off the field.

[chris3162]

i bet you are a UT fan hahahahah go raiderssss

[montezdariel]

what drama and baggage lol i keep asking you to give me examples because you cant.this guy is a hard worker and he likes to block lol.you picked another james jett get over it

[vinstermonster]

youre an idiot. fuck off.

[hshabbir]

If he's going to put up TO numbers he bring all the baggage he wants to... But yeah your a raider fan, I am not...Life is good!!!!! FIVE RINGS HOMIE HOLLA

[footballer1552]

haha exactly your just made your dumbass team picked hayward bay he fuckin sucks fuck the raiders!

[caliking2325]

i bet this is coming from a raider fan. and he a damn hard worker. all his coaches ever talk about is how great his work etheic is and how hard he pushes himself. dumbass...

[bignacholocs]

ahaha... u serious brah... get back at me and let giv me an example of him actin like dat... u wont get bak at me cuz cus u got nottin u just runnin ur mouth n don't kno shit!

[caliking2325]

As a 49er fan, i was sooooooo shocked and excited when the raiders passed on Crabtree. Im looking forward to how his skills translate to the pros.

but lets not label him a savior yet...lets just see what happens when he puts on those sick new/old uniform and gets on an NFL field.

49ers!! yee!

[guitarbyous]

frisco!!frisco!!frisco!!!frisc­o!!!!frisco!!!frisco!!!!

[someymehra]

thank you al davis!!!!!

[doc456]

wow herion calm down, ive been to two crabtree videos in the last ten minutes and you were there insulting crabtree and the niners on both of them. If your not a niners fan, why are u looking at all these videos and caring so much? what is your team anyway? why dont you stop hating on a pick that was a no-brainer (and it was, ask any one who actually knows something about the draft (and that doesn't include you apparently) and stop being such a downer.

[guitarbyous]

right he hating!!!!!

[EcEryda69]

Every time 49ers fans get really excited about a wr thats been drafted it always ends up as a Hall of Fame wr [ Jerry Rice, T.O.] all we need is joe or steve young to come back. Or how bout we go get michael vick run run run run and play action touchdown

[heroinandmoreheroin]

JJ Stokes worked out pretty well for you guys too.

[guitarbyous]

why you hating dawg??jj stokes? out of all the wr we had since then,you brought up jj stokes?and if you wasnt hating u would have brought up busts from every team that drafted a high wr in the draft but you transparent i can c straight through u boy u a angry raiders fan lmao!!!

[snowlessons]

They are asking some dumbazz questions.

[superior08indo]

Galloway is a WHAT?! You should work for Oakland, I wouldn't expect anything more.

[paperdriven]

Did somebody mention JJ Stokes? #10 pick to the Niners. Huge college producer. Size, moves, and hands. Lack of speed.

Hmmm.

And don't forget the only WR Al Davis has ever drafted in the top-10 is a future HOFer (Tim Brown). Do yall realize who yall are critisizing?

All these same analysts said Joey Galloway over JJ Stokes was a reach (like DHb,Crab). That one worked in favor for the Niners, huh? LOL. Galloway is a future HOFer, Stokes was a bust.

Have fun with JJ Stokes, yall

[bigmac9202]

Galloway a future HOFer?? hmmmm...

[BV10707]

niners baby!! patrick willis now crabtree. im smellin playoffs?

[yaheem]

I dont get all the diva talk, hes not all about me, me, me. He has swagger, he thinks he was the best receiver in college and he was the best receiver in college. And do you think Coach would really agree to pick him if he had a diva attitude? As for the 70 yd bombs vs. the 8 yd bombs. In the end its still 6 points, in the NFL there are alot more 8 yd scores than there are 70 yd scores so have fun with Jaminkus throwing to DHB only to have the ball dropped. Seriously though, I hope DHB is good.

[ben6485]

the answer to the question at 6:10 is friggin hilarious

[omgeverynameisgone]

I haven't been this excited since the Sacramento Kings almost won the title in 2002. Being a Sacramento Kings and

49ers fan I haven't had much to be excited about over the past few years. But this really does it for me, we are going to have a great WR for years to come! We hit gold Niners fans!

[aiken43]

San Francisco got a hell of a player and a hell of a person. You should be excited about having Crabtree on your team. He will play his ass off for you. I'm a Red Raider and a Texans fan but will be watching the San Fran also. Congratulations.

[rshah006]

miamiraider your're an idiot JT O'Sullivan isn't even on the 49ers..know your sports before you talk fag. and shaun hill was 12th in passer rating, even better than halfway decent

[452mike1986]

SF has no QB.lol. Crabtree will be so pissed when his stats dont show shit because he doesnt have a QB. Reminds me of T.O.

While across the bay Heyward-Bey will be going long for 70yd Bombs from Russell..

Crabtree is a Cowboy fan.. have fun Niners. Good luck throwing him 8yd bombs.

[SuperDooD212]

yeah heyward bey will be catching 70yd bombs alright...out of bounds. he could run all he want but the ball is coming nowhere near him. our qb may not have the arm but they sure are way more accurate the russell

[tj00]

that stuff may work in madden kid, but this is the real world. at best, DHB will be as productive as JLH was last year while the sky is the limit for crabtree.

[yungdez24]

i think wit this pick getting crabtree will in fact benefit frank gore and vernon davis. no more 8 men in da box kuz u have crabtree and davis to worry about. defense was ranked 13th last year wit crabtree and others on offense. 49ers see you in da playoffs

[bg292]

I like how Al Davis works, like helping the 49ers. hope he lives a long time. raiders, dont get upset cuz we got what u wanted. maybe next year. whats that smell? i smell playoffs. not u guys though. HA

[miamiraider25]

LMAO....with the great JT O Sullivan? HAHAHAHA

[bilwit]

O'Sullivan is a Bengal, not a 49er.

[miamiraider25]

lol...w/e...whos the QB now then? Shaun Hill?

[APizzaMyHeart]

wow congradulations 49ers.... you have a good receiver and the worst fuckin QB's in the country. Nice.

And to Crabtree... hope you enjoyed your TDs and catches in colleges... with these QBs you wont see shit.

sadly.. im a niners fan.

[Cartesiantheater]

Yeah, except Shaun Hill had a better Passer Rating than:

Donovan McNabb

Eli Manning

Jay Cutler

Ben Roethlisberger

Brett Favre

etc.

He was in fact ranked 12.

He was also ranked 12th in yards passing per game.

To me, 12 is a lot higher than LAST. But maybe in your mind 32 is a smaller number than 12...

[anepales]

lol burn! Further...Shaun Hill is 7-3 as a starter. Time to no talky if no can say smart stuff, pizza.

[APizzaMyHeart]

7-3 is good to you, in the worse division in football?

Wow...

[anepales]

nah, i've reconsidered my position since posting this, actually. my bad. i agree with you now. if shaun hill is your starter, you just suck.

[tangeuray]

Shawn hill had a 83+ rating vs AZ week 1.

[APizzaMyHeart]

Hah,

in what division? The worst in football.

If you're suggesting that Shit Hill is a better WB than Donovan, Manning, Roethlisberger, or Favre, you're absolutely insane. These are proven QB's that WIN!

Hill was 7-3? Since when is 7-3 good? In the AFC, 7-3 is like being 5-5. I know, they aren't in the AFC... but lets be real here. Shaun Hill isnt a future QB.

[cmarshall2008]

Dude, I am a die hard 49ers fan and have been as long as I can remember (my dad is a fan)

Some 49er fans though compare Shaun Hill to Joe Montana etc. it is pathetic.

Shaun Hill gets the job done and gets us wins, but almost ANY other starting QB in the NFL could have gotten us the wins we have so far.. Shaun Hill throws the UGLIEST passes I have EVER seen.. They look like "Wounded Ducks:"

Nice to have Crabtree signed~!!

[kimani123]

84 is reasonable on madden. He was the WR in college 2 years in a row. 84 is not beast on madden.

[anepales]

For a rookie...yeah 84 on Madden IS beast mode, man!

[judyboy42]

FUCK!!!! this is not where i wanted him to go,,,he went to a bad team i mean we didnt even hear about the 49ers, he needed to go to oakland or pats or the cowboys or shit even the bengals but 49ers? i can only hope he gets traded somewhere better =(

[jaleru69]

he should be lower than 84. he hasnt even taken a snap in the nfl. how can he even be rated for the nfl level.

i love the pick. i love the 9ers, but lets not get carried away and think crabtree is our savior. theres still alot of work to do and alot of players to step up.

[ykyx5w]

thanks al davis you are to old to pick a players ,,, your selection will be have 252 yars this year and 1 TD ...

[bigmac9202]

that may be 252 more yards and 1 more TD than your selection...

[regiosister]

man the 49ers got a better wide receiver than the raiders

[trinitystarr11]

Thanks AL Davis!!!

[Sethroith9]

haha dhb is only a 76

[hernandezr05]

Hey Al Davis thanks for hookin us up

[TheFinalPiece]

Only an 84 in madden??

[montasmob69]

Future WR core (after bruce retires)

1. Michael Crabtree

2. Josh Morgan

3. Jason Hill

4. Brandon Jones

5. Dominique Zigler

[vikings1133]

i like the first 4 but zigler wont be there

[vikings1133]

i love his confidence

[demery39]

good player if he can get his head straight !

[vikings1133]

dude trust me, a lot of people say that but im a huge fan and he is nothing like T.O.

niners got a good player

[lurchipoo]

Somebody get that fat baldheaded scallywag away from our new SOON TO BE ROOKIE MVP...

[xdynomitex85]

FRISCOOOO

[jimithingjames]

There will never be 'another Jerry Rice'. Or, for that matter, another T.O. Crabtree should do well though. I can't wait to watch him collect a TD pass from Shaun Hill.

GO NINERS!!!!

[dirk4172]

Al Davis what the fuck! You let me down again you old sack of shit.

[bilwit]

God bless Al Davis for being such a moron, thanks a lot from San Francisco.

[dirk4172]

Good Mike Singletary. But as far as Al Davis goes I should take a shit on his lawn because he took a shit on all of us by not picking him.

[oOSadHollowOo]

Wow, I remember seeing C-Tree at the supermarket here in lubbock like after the Oaklahoma State game, he was just a regular joe in college. And now hes a millionaire playing for ther 49ers!

[LambarProductions]

WRECK EM TECH!!!!

[gillianseed]

These local reporters are assholes btw, lol. Asking a brotha if he's seen Milk, and telling him to go to "Tosca" haahah oh boy.

[spanishflya]

Hahaha so true.. that's frisco for ya.. crab has no idea what's goin on.. hes got the generic answer for every question.

[jimithingjames]

Agreed.  Then again, most reporters are thickheaded puppets.

[ryanhallforpope]

Heyward bey will rule the Bay over crabtree

[monsterdoood]

if speed mattered devin hester would be god right now

[WillmaticVideo]

Devin Hester isn't the fastest player in NFL. Look at Chris Johnson fastest guy in last years draft was an injury from leading the Titans to the Super Bowl

[AJx408x]

don't lie to yourself.. you were probably crying over the missed crabtree pick like the thousands of other raiders fans HAH !

[landkujo]

all i have to say is james jet and thanks as a niner fan for crabtree

[Nolman2121]

wow, you gotta love the intelegence of raider fans... i mean did you guys see the chart espn pulled up on the raiders draft picks? they were all the fastest guys at the combine, and how did that work out? NUFF SAID!

[anepales]

He's from Dallas? Oh that's just poetic...

[DrMcNoob]

Eat ham sandwiches everyday!

[Nolman2121]

lol ty for advice

[gillianseed]

This is a smart kid, very witty, our offense is going to be explosive.

[Nolman2121]

ya, plus im waiting for vernon davis to break out... hopefully this will be his year

[Steadno]

get that money boi!!

[anepales]

The guy is confident! Welcome!!!
